Rumor about RWD?

trevor456 · 03-17-2004, 06:27 AM

I heard from another Sti owner that if you pull the e-brake up atleast one click that it dissables something to make the Sti RWD. I find this hard to believe plus I have not heard anything about it or tried it so is this true? I am thinking this guy might be full of BS but I am curious to see if anyone else has heard of this. Thanks

Its not the "click" but rather when the e-brake light comes on is when the center diff dissengages all locking.

You friend is "partially" right since if the rear wheels brake lose the STi will feel very RWD like, such that you can get the tail to snap out and come right around you. However, the car will NOT turn into RWD.
