going to be looking at the RA flaps real soon. My initial impressions about this car is that the tranny sounds pretty much like my 06 WRX. It has that same whirring noise when engine braking on 1st and 2nd. Modulate the throttle, and you can come to a smooth stop. Having some difficulty with heel-toe though. The throttle pedal seem further in than the brake pedal... Anyone got used to doing heel-toe on these cars? Last edited by inpuressa : 04-26-2008 at 06:15 PM. | |

With that said, I'm completely used to it now. No problems at all. |
