    In this video I will be reviewing a Japanese Import (JDM) Subaru Impreza STI Hawkeye that has been remapped to 360bhp.
    This STI sounds great and is a real beauty especially as it is the 2.0 and not the 2.5 UK variant!!
    Proper awesome car.......check it out!
    I hope you enjoy the content and see you on the next one :-)

    I always wanted an STI but I ended up with an 07 WRX for 5 Grand 3 years ago. Recently I just bought an iag stage 2 short block. With the price of STIs I figured I can have a fully built WRX for the same price as a stock STI

      But then you still don't have the 6sp tranny, axels, brakes etc. Ends up costing a bunch to get all the things & do all the work. Good to have a donor sti then

    Hi Love your channel and you seem a good guy. I'm looking for Hawkeye 2005-2007 Impreza STI (JDM) Would you say they would be pretty much rust free if not in UK for long? How is the drive, quick acceleration? Strong,? Punchy? Quick Acceleration low down with NOT much Turbo Lag? I'm assuming a very appreciating Asset
    Thanks Richard

    • @PerformanceLifestyles
      @PerformanceLifestyles  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks Richard, really appreciate the kind words 👍
      If they've been here a short time then they'll practically be as good as a fresh import if they've not been heavily used in the winter months. The JDM and UK cars do have a very punchy feel especially if they've been remapped but the UK do sound better due to the unequal length manifolds.
      There's virtually no lag low down but JDM does feel stronger and are generally stronger unless you try and run big power.
      The JDM cars will most certainly hold better value so get one whilst the prices are slightly down 👍
      Feel free to drop us a message/email if you need any help 👍

    • @PerformanceLifestyles
      @PerformanceLifestyles  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi mate, the blob/hawk is a more 'raw' car and more driver feedback. I personally prefer them but the hatch makes a great daily and all round car. The hatch is more of a 'modern' refined Scooby compared to the previous models 👍

      Most UK Hawkeyes are 2.5 apart from a very few of the early cars which were 2.0. All JDM are however a 2.0 and generally known as the better car. 👍
