Uobtanium: STi spec C type RA-R

This is the featured car in the latest Impreza Magazine. From what I can read from the article, these are some of the features:

-320 ps/44 kgm torque
-twin scroll turbo
-sports tuned ECU
-sports catalyzer
-stainless sports muffler
-silicon air intake duct
-tuned struts w/low down springs
-pillow ball aluminum rear lateral links
-pillow ball rear trailing links
-lower arm bar
-21 front and 22 rear stabilizer bars
-monoblock 6 pot front calipers
-grooved disc rotors
-18 x 8.5 aluminum wheels with 235/40 RE070 tires

Looks pretty badazz to me

usually those mags run 2,500 yen. Add in the shipping costs and a little for profit and $38 is about right.

if you live near Kinokuniya Book stores you can get them and a bunch of other JDM mags there, maybe a little cheaper.

First off, I'd like to say I've only been to your J-town once, on my honeymoon back in '92...it totally rocked!! As for me here in Hawaii, I get mine from Shirokiya at the Ala Moana Center. Just went into the book area and asked for a subscription to the magazine, but @ 38 bones, that is just way too much. I've had my subscription for about three issues now and pay 'bout 23 bucks or so. This latest issue even had a DVD. Yen price for issue 33 was 1700, so I can't complain.
