Urban Dictionary:

Japanese word used to describe the 1st model of a particular generation of vehicle. As opposed to the 2nd model/version which is called Kouki. EDIT: Of course, these are 1st and second model terms within the SAME generation.

Sounds like someone is trying too hard to be JDM yo.

but how do we know if it is indeed the kouki, and not a chuki? still may be one more change in the books..lol

Lovely version 2.0, that new FRS does look like a ninja turtle nose-mouth at the right angle but still nice too haha. You can tell Subaru really pays attention to certain critiques mentioned by major publications. Many-a-folks complained about the steering wheel have "wasted real-estate." I mean you throw in push-to start, keyless entry, etc....it was a no-brainer to throw in some controls, its a Subaru lol....my prediction is the next generation will add remote start.

I would love to change my steering wheel out but safety is a major concern, I need an airbag(although I gotta pretty personal steering wheel just sitting

). Sexiest steering wheel I've seen thus far is the E92 M3 performance wheel w/the built in tach-leds.

I'm just happy the platform is alive and relatively unchanged. Though if I'd just bought a 2016 Brand New, I'd be a liiiittle upset(20k for a CPO 2015 w/3k miles was a steal to me, I had to) but we've yet to see what the sticker price of the new will be once they hit the local lots. Honestly I'd only pull the headlights though, I still give the 1st gen the win in the bumper department.

Toyobaru might not ever give us a turbo-version. I personally think the engineers are still upset they managed to give the world another legendary 100hp per liter 4-cylinder only a 100lbs heavier than the all-mighty ITR, even made it RWD for us and we still complained >.< lol

Stupid is those eat sleep JDM stickers.

Asian history goes back about 5000 years I'm sure my people are doing at least something right.

Sorry I didn't read the entire thread but where is this extra 5hp/5lb-ft tq coming from? Revised intake / exhaust / ECU?

前期 & 後期.

It's just Japanese way of saying first model & model refresh. It literary means first period & 2nd period.

Fair amount of improvement available in the header area and intake filter material too.

Now if they can only put a decent head unit with decent speakers and get rid of all the rattles, I'm in again
