Subarus are perhaps expensive compared to ... Honda's or DSM's...

But then again the Honda's and DSM's people are modding are 10 years older then the Subaru's.

Expensive to mod include BMW, Mercedes, Porsche, Supra's, anything where the suppliers don't need to compete becuase the people will pay whatever for thier parts...
Thats what I was trying to get at.

It really depends on what car you have, or what you are use to working on.

Also, the FMIC's are generally expensive due to the amount of piping and bends required to install them. After that, they become about the same as everything else on the market...only we get free 740cc injectors.

I would figure it would cost less to get a supra in the, say, 10 second range, than a supra. Maybe I'm just stoopid.

Yeah that was a dogbox. How much are DSM dogboxes? Damn near the same price. Does that mean DSMs are spendy to mod? No.

Subaru's used to be pricey when the WRX was first released here because no one had parts. Now it's moreso a myth that they are "pricey" to mod. Really no more expensive than any other car of its class etc. Cars that are pricey to mod are exotics, German cars, Poopra's, and RWD/AWD Nissans(240 parts are getting cheaper now, however).
Ok.

I learned something today. 😮

You can do that with just about ANY car, import or domestic.

However subies ARE pretty pricey to mod.

Honestly, we could do the same thing with civic hatchs, DSMs...etc...I know you didn't make the video but wtf its so old now. I would hope to god that STI is worth more than a fox body.

That was a pretty kick ass wheelie though.
