New guy from DubV

[Pltmrex]

Hello, I'm Aaron. I've been in the Subaru game for about 10yrs now. I started with a 02 WRX that has gone thru many motors and transmissions. Currently it's STi drivetrain and interior swaped.




But but now it's just a race car. Three weeks ago my new car finally arrived after a 4 month wait!

A '15 DGM STi!

Welcome to IGOTASTI!!!!

Whatre your impressions going from the bugeye to the 15?

I can say its a world of difference. The 02 is setup for AutoX and I'm able to rotate the car whenever I feel like it. In saying that, this is the best handling Subaru that i have ever driven out of the box. It's very predictable, if you remember to turn trac off.

I just did an AutoX with it to learn the feel and the different settigns/traction modes. I can tell you the trac mode does not work in that situation. Its alot better for back roads.

The only issues I really have are the power is not really linear in the higher gears. Also the throttle in sport feels like an old FXT, loads of lag. Sport# is better but i can still feel it. Must be the cable throttle guy in me.
