Mini R53's rule.

OK, its not my GD STi by any means, but as a third car for track use, its amazing. I've made some minor mods to the wheels/tires/rotors&pad and CAI, but everything else is stock. 140,000 miles and its as strong as ever. Still on the stock clutch as well. The BRZ has a very high bar to reach the performance of the R53. Newer is not always better.
