I’ve never seen Voltron make a pass in person, but I’ve heard it’s mighty Subaru rumble idle haha. I like this thought :tup:

Yes. This vs. Voltron would be great. Curiosity and a debate between friends has brought me to ask you just what the factory color was on this car. In the pictures it looks orange in some, red in others. Can you settle this for us? No hate.

Voltron is a time attack car, this is a drag car so they’re not really in the same category.

That’s great, but that also didn’t answer my question.

Besides, I’m quite sure Voltron can do both.

Agreed, Voltron has been to the drag strip. Adjust the alignment and suspension settings. 🙂

Subaru didn’t have an orange color for the impreza’s during this gen that I’m aware of in the US. This looks like Sedona Red.

That’s what I was thinking, but there is an orange that shows up in the PPG color swatches for that year.

You are correct in this.  
We aren’t after anyone.  
Well… we’re after everyone in a manner; blowing them away (hopefully.)  
Our one actual goal with this car outside of pushing our own boundaries is to be the quickest/fastest AWD full-chassis Subaru (4cyl.) If it also happens to do well compared to all the EG33 cars - great!

The shell has been stripped, the cage out for powdercoat. The inside painted and the carbon doors, hood and trunk are here. The fuel cell is back from the anodizer and the rest of the cage and header should be here Friday! Lexan is ready to be riveted in…

Time to put her together! Hopefully done for the shootout. Show the DSM/Evo crowd what happens when a Subaru is raised in a 4G63 household!
