TopSpeed Motorsports | 2011 STI Dom1.5 Testing Complete!!!

What about internal parts.
I know the WRX has different internals. How well would they hold up to this kind of power?

 

Its a Subaru....it'll eventually crack the ringlands.

 

Not too shabby, glad to see you getting behind the wheel more often. Sounds like next weekend's Roebling is going to be interesting as hell!

 

Did you ever get better than a 1:19 flat in the AM session?

 

No... I actually ended up leaving early sunday morning to go home and surprise my wife and daughter. There weren't expecting me to be home till late Sunday so it was a nice surprise getting to hang out all day.

 

Cool shot from last weekends track day at Roebling. After making some setup changes at the track I had the balance of the car pretty damn good. Now its time for a few more goodies and hello 1:17's

On a side note the 2011 STI chassis is leaps and bounds better.. I am absolutely amazed how well this car handles now.

 

Sexy.
specs on the wheels? they look staggered haha

 

Angle of shot. Staggered on a subaru = NO NO. It'll burn up your diffs.

 

Not that anyone here will likely ever need to know this but you can stagger them as long as each wheel rolls out to the same diameter. This is useful on cars with rear biased mechanical diffs.


Congrats on getting her into the 1:17s Doug thats a good time at Roebling no matter what you are driving.

 

hear there's a big difference just between the 08's and the 11's suspension wise.

 

He didnt get 1:17 or even 1:18. Got 1:19 flat.

 

Oh, 19s are still pretty damn quick there. Running 19s you will be among the fastest there at any given track day.

 

Yup, 19's in any car, let alone a full interior sedan is moving pretty good.
