Default just raced a scooby, but dont know wot engine it was

it was definately a turbo before some one says sport

but what engine options did 3 door scoobys come in

i know of the P1 and 22b

it was definately not a 22B

thought it could be a P1 but surely that should waste me in a race

i thought all WRX/Sti were 5 door family saloons

correst me if im erong please

just could not understand why he was not leaving me

Don't think so...I think RB5's are 5 doors [although I'm no scooby expert!!]

With 230BHP you should be able to keep uo with most standard Scoobies in a straight line

Or in other words it was a P1 as pictured above

99.9% of the grey import STI's that came into the UK were either grey, white or black, they wsnt made in World rally blue, only the P1, WRX STi and 22B were that colour

does sound like a typeR version 5.and they did come in blue.my mates got one in blue but the version 6 and that more or less the same as the p1.
infact im sure some folk think there better really quick of the mark but as most folk will say once rolling you should give them a good go
