stock for stock yeah but they arent stock for stock are they nob... its already modified and all the rex has is a zorst... do u know how much it costs to upgrade a WRX to a decent amount of power at the wheels? its a MUST to upgrade the gearbox with anywhere near 160+ at the wheels... bang for buck u will get more out of an R32 than u will a late model WRX.

yeah i think im gona go the r32

its actually gonna cost me 17 and im gona spend the extra 3 on a big turbo and clutch.

its got everything else and should make 220rwkw

thanks for your help guys

for only 2 grand more i reckon my car is better value than that! check out the link below...

on the topic though i think the 32 has a MUCH better chance of holding its value than the wrx does.

The rex boxes espec 99-00 mdl are quite decent and able to hold 200kw atw , however button clutches and repeated launches will make short work of them .

Bang for buck and after reading the post on this site about money spent on skylines to get a r32 gts to 200kw atw and a rexy to the same power , rexy wins by a fair bit

ex. Power FC 1.1k

VF34 turbo 1k

zorst .7k

air filter kit .2k

This combo run on close to 20psi would would be able to just reach that target ( has been done in a few rexies and even a RS)

however anymore power and injectors,cooler , clutch , box would all require upgrade/replacement.

how much kw@4 wheels can the vf34 give u??

a mate with a 2000 rex is looking at getting one

If set up correctly VF34 can get you to 200 kw atw(4) some have reached 215 kw, at a recent AVO dyno day 4 cars using this turbo all passed this mark 2 rexes a forester and a RS and its a bolt on to all these models and a around the 1k mark . They are the OEM turbo for the bug eye sti .

Inark is correct that the my99-00 hasnt dropped down to 20k yet as the ruffer ones are at 22k , but 2 friends have recently purchased my99 boxes for around 2k and they fit all older subies with the EJ20 motor.

hmmm, what happened to them i wonder.. :rant:

whats this about dropping sik coolers? is that supposed to be the noise that vls make? i thought that was because they dont have bov and a pod magnifies the turbo shutter.

i have no idea wtf mad demos are. and what is a u leh?

come out wif da boys and we'll show u what a demo is. u just do sik burnouts, and donuts man. but u cant do them in skylines cause they dont have enuf power. and u cant really drop coolers in skylines either u leh cause they only have mud blow off valves.

    • FWIW the depth of the groove in the rubber pad is not super essential, the blocks are rubber and squish a bit. If you are worried an angle grinder will make a deeper groove quick smart
    • I mean, if you were to move the jacking points away from the original location, that is, away from the wheels and closer to the centreline of the car, then it will be more likely to overbalance and tip off the supports. Same as we talked about before. I was talking about moving for-aft. If the sill is bent outward or inward, then the car would obviously look unstraight from the outside. Hopefully that hasn't happened either. Again, you can do comparative measurements from the chassis rails to see if there is much deflection.
    • Can you elaborate what you mean with your first sentence? I meant move as in the bulge kinda seemed like it got pulled "outward" meaning it got pulled down and to the side with the jacking rail itself, so the load bearing bulge now sits lower than usual and is not level with the sill on the other side of the jack point. Either that or the jacking rail just got pushed in a good bit.
    • As well as being risky WRT tipping off anyway. Yeah, I wouldn't expect it to move. Just measure from the rear one to the front one on the good side, then measure that same length on the wrecked side. You will find the notches in the pinchweld, and the jacking pad. Just spray a spot of marker paint or something there.
    • but any other area than the bulge you are talking about will just cave in then? The front driver side is pretty bent so I don't know if that will work the way it is now. I can still kinda make out where that bulge is/was but it looks like the position of it also changed due to all the mistreatment? Hard to tell
