The hp may be slightly overestimated if its running the standard ihi vf28 charger.......may be it has been changed for a vf 34/35......

Hi rooferman,yeh i thought it was a rare find,not seen a white v6 ra before,the guy said its running a vf34 but still at 365bhp its pub talk,think they top out at 340.Should the car have abs ?

Loose the front splitter and replace with a version 6 splitter and it will look 100% .......:D

Take your time with the dccd as it has been known to bite......lol ....

The lack of abs is a bonus in the dry when on the limits imo.....maybe not in the wet though...

That was exactly my thoughts,change the P1 splitter i want to get a carbon sti 6 lip :cool:,the front brakes will be the 1st thing i upgrade anyway.
My P1 has the 330mm alcon's on so standard 4 pots with no abs may take some getting used too :eek::(
