just a uk turbo 2000, it was very young when i had it and low mileage, brought from subaru garage it was mint.
Handling wasn't bad but even with brand new potenzas it understeered too much and was sprung too softly, the 4wd wouldnt pull you out of a corner like folk imagine, if you got on the power early it just understeered wide. Zs handled better as standard and was better again with a quaife.
I understand the type Ra's , p1's etc are all much better but the uk turbo deffinitely had it short comings.
Me and Kev went to castle combe in our zs back in about 05 or 06 with the scooby forum and ran rings roound 95% of them in the pouring rain, they were mostly newer model bugeyes and uk bugeye sti's and they handled like boats, no doubt a well driven type RA would have trounced us........infact yes, one of the organisers had a type ra ...350 bhp and well modified and that was in another league to all the other scoobs and out of our reach too, although not by the huge margin you would think.
