Thanks for the rousing welcome.
Yes i tried that link but it seems broken.
Does anyone by chance still have a soft copy of the owners manual?
Would appreciate if anyone could email it to me.
I know it's too new for ppl to experience what i've been through. So looks like i've to wait a bit longer for feedback.
Oh so i'm supposed to press and hold both the TC and VSC button to completely disengage the systems?
Darn i got to try that if given the opportunity again.
I just followed what the Subaru people mentioned, where in order to turn off the system complete was just told to press and hold the TC button only (obviously now i know it doesnt work as the TC will revert back to normal once Mr. Toyoda things i'm being too naughty).
TC/ VSC stuff aside i gotta say it's pretty awsome car but unfortunately i never got to experience the car pass 2nd gear as i only got to play with it in a small little carpark cordoned off for me to hoon around by Subaru.
What really won me was that the car felt really spacious on the driver's seat (having driven Supras and Silvia) they feel pretty cramp considering they are quite lengthy.
The car perceives/feels/looks small but i would like to try parking a BRZ besides a Supra coz in reality i reckon they are probably the same size.
Only down side based on my 1st impression.....
Not enough power to smoke the rear wheels period.
Chassis is too good and underpowered.
It needs a turbocharged STi engine.
better still a Lexus ISF engine.
It needs a tigher LSD.
I would love to try a manual version as the auto gives me the impression that the gearing is just way too tall. 1st gear was good for 65kph if i recall.
Surprisingly i saw someone sporting a Subaru BRZ on STI Spec C RA-r brakes and running some sort of 19inch Ray Engineering Rims.
Was surprised the arches could clear 235/35 R19s front and 265/35 R19s rear.
However i doubt the handling would be the same and probably understeer like a pig but it really does look good on the car (somehow the newer cars these days needs +2 rim size up in the looks department).
Ok enough rambling for the day.
