Scooby Pete Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 Don't know what the "R" stands for but the body is essentially the same as the Wrx/STI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tom_gr7 Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Don't know what the "R" stands for but the body is essentially the same as the Wrx/STI. Afaik, the R denotes that the engine is a VVT engine. I only know as my legacy is a 2.0R. Something like that anyway. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cornish6544 Posted December 9, 2014 Author Share Posted December 9, 2014 Got a problem tinting the rear windows and need to know if the 1.5r hatchback 07 will have the same rear windows as an sti hatchback ? any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay762 Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 I believe it does, its the arches, spoilers and skirts that differ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom_gr7 Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Can I ask a question about that scoop. As you have a 1.5 non turbo engine and therefore no intercooler beneath the scoop. That scoop will allow airflow into your engine bay, im not sure what impact that would have on the engine, but wouldn't it also allow rain in as well? If you had a intercooler there, any rain water would be collected and drained away as per. However, as you dont have an intercooler all the rain water is going to go all over the engine bay? Potentially over electrics? But also isnt there a risk of the engine not drying and rusting? Feel free to disagree though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stants Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 Not sure how much water actually gets into the engine bay through the scoop as there is an air dam in place to channel the air to the turbo and cooler. Could always fashion a drip tray to collect any wild drips. I know mine mail let's out so much heat I doubt the water has chance to get that far in before evaporating Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
