Icetee168 3rd Gear April 6, 2016 Share April 6, 2016 read somewhere in the web it mentioned 300bhp (if my memory doesn't fail me). the article also mentioned that by increasing too much horsepower it might caused the metal belt that is holding the 2 pulleys together to snap and the cost will be to replace a new gearbox...best is to tone down your appetite for power and not be too greedy..2 cents ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaronlkl Supersonic April 28, 2016 Share April 28, 2016 Anybody know how much power can be added to the CVT model before compromising the longevity? Pls get one with a proper manual gearbox! 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shibadog Turbocharged April 28, 2016 Share April 28, 2016 Anybody know how much power can be added to the CVT model before compromising the longevity? NASIOC may have more user reviews. but yeah, if want big power n torque, manual is the way to go. (Same as the evo X... SST was severly limited) 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psionix 1st Gear May 20, 2016 Share May 20, 2016 Hi all. Driving a version R same as Pocus before. Car reaching ten year soon. Looking at the 86 or WRX, MT. But since Borneo not bringing in any 86 anytime soon, seems like the rex is the way to go. Either WR Blue or Lapis Blue. Anyone here know if the new head unit supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto?

Pocus Turbocharged May 20, 2016 Share May 20, 2016 (edited) Hi all. Driving a version R same as Pocus before. Car reaching ten year soon. Looking at the 86 or WRX, MT. But since Borneo not bringing in any 86 anytime soon, seems like the rex is the way to go. Either WR Blue or Lapis Blue. Anyone here know if the new head unit supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto? Nope, the hu sucks in features. Codec for movies also limited. Some bros in the Forester group bought adaptor mountings to change the HU. There are some pioneer hu that is compatible with the steering remote. The wrx is a nicer look ride. The Forester xt is already a blast to drive and I expect the rex to do even better. The only grip I have, paddle shifters. They should give the traditional tiptronic cogs for shifting. It would have been more fun.
