If you have the bikkies, there is the "bugeye" Imprezza RS with 2.5L engine. Should be more tractable than the 2L, and P plate safe at the same time.

civics are good i guess but they are everywhere up here so i have yet to see a standout... according to a mate tho you can get 500hp out of a civic with the proper adjustment...spoon engines ect

look at proton satria GTI's
its a mirage with a gsr engine, sound like they go hard and an easy turbo conversion plus they look half decent stock

You sure can and as soon as I'm off my P's my CIVIC is having an overhaul.

They are an awesome car and I absolutely love driving it everyday

Oh yeah and Chris is right, they f**king handle like a DREAM!

Can you tell I'm in love with it?

yer i have a soft spot for hondas. civics, accords.
As long as its Vtecc. they go well.
another nice thing about em is avalibility of aftermarket parts.
they dont pull big numbers at dynos, but they are scary fast.

its all fun and games till it beats u at the lights

seriously on a rare note its actually a decent car, probably the only decent proton ever made, and thus u don't get ragged on it if u got no badges. worth a look at anyway

you can drive a 12A or lesser, im guessing by the seqence of numbers that a 10A has a smaller CC than 12A
