I'll go with the crap rugs.

And that TV's not an LCD.

Ultimate Syncros are surely Subaru powered anyway, Pete?

Yes, it's one of five Oettinger Carat syncro. It's not for Off-Road, it's for understatement ;)

They want to get the petrols right first, they are getting themselves a bad reputation.

Allegedly the diesel-do-nicely will be with us in 2008........ no rush on getting prepped for that conversion then.

I'll stick with the EJ22 for now, thanks.

Theres a crowd in the US that do Ford Zetec bolt in setups for T25s both syncro and 2wd. They always tickled my fancy but are a bit on the pricey side to say the least. They seem like a cracking engine though.

Seems to me most engines..even the popular ones have an achilles heel.... 1.9 DG with leaky head gaskets or a Subaru engine with a weak bottom end?

Zetec sounds like a good plan to me.....although im not sure what the torque figures are like.
