STORY:
My name is Idin (pronounced like Eye-din).
I always knew Imprezas through the original Legacy and GC Impreza 555 rally cars but my favourite car was Lancia Delta Integrale HFs. That was until I started semi competitive PC rally gaming and came across THE blue car with a different sound
It had some understeer but lift off and left foot braking was almost magical and soon it was my favourite car...
Long story short, I have a 2002 genuine bugeye STI. Two years ago I bought a GR white hatch but ended up cancelling the order as
1-The bug "felt" better as more involving and analogue. Almost a nice hybrid between GC and GD having good attributes of each: raw and feelsome gc and chassis rigidity of GD, noting the little fanboy within
2- The dealer took too damn long to deliver.
GOAL:
My interpretation of a STI GT3 RS.
