hey now... i like my gd just fine... if i had my choice id buy a P1! those are definetly sweet! it seems like the GC was more of a balls to the wall car than the GD is.... they were supposedly more volatile on boost, and defineltly liked to go sideways more... in other words.. i heard the GC likes oversteer more than the GD. but alas, in the us... looks like ill settle for a gd.... Maybe one day : ) *22b*

Don't listen too closely to what Zate says, he's a GD biggot. He hates 'em cause Billy keeps taking the Stanger out at the track with his stock WRX!! :o :o :o
The GD was a good chassis and with the proper underpinnings (strut bars, sways, chassis "arm" bars, etc) could be very rigid indeed, from what I've read. Would love to drop the current STi power and drive train into the last gen Impreza chassis. With a little hammering to the tranny tunnel, I've heard it bolts right up.
Once my WRX is done...maybe I'll take on that challenge instead of house shopping. Hmmm... 
p.s. Forget hood scoops. Once you've got your FMIC in, look for something to take the heat out. I'm probably going to go with the Aqua drop in extractor or a replica for under $200 until I can find a better deal on the Kaminari hood. I lust for that hood, damnit!!!

Hmmm... $44,950? Looks like Sparco is hurting for money. Why not use the vehicle as a giveaway when you purchase Sparco products? Surely they'd more than double their investment...

Welcome Thermite. You're on NASIOC as well, right? Seem to remember seeing your screenname around. The Sparco car is too much show, not enough go. All I want out of it are the seats!!
