What is the fair price for an unreg Sti V8?

[' xZ "]

so most of 2004 v8 is GDB-D?

 

[NeniNeniBoBo]

I think so but so far hvt heard of any1 get GDB-D since FHI not produce many units for type D. Correct me if I wrong.:rolleyes:

 

[skubv8]

yes, most of 2004 v8 are GDB-D. This includes some V-Limited edition 555 units made to celebrate Subaru's winning of WRC 2003.

 

[' xZ "]

so wats the difference between GDB-C and GDB-D?
the DCCD is different?

 

[skubv8]

IIRC, GDB-C some have auto-DCCD, some don't have.

GDB-D all must have auto-DCCD.

 

[' xZ "]

so most of the subaru owners prefer with auto or without auto dccd?

 

[blue.taxi]

if can get a unit w/ DCCD is much better, & more fun to drive @ corner.

 

[' xZ "]

auto or manual dccd is better?
GDB-C and GDB-D all still without wider rims and wider fender right?
izit only GDB-E has the same air-con thingy as version 9

this is what i meant, differences between type c/d, e, and f. correct me if i'm wrong.

type c/d


type e


type f (version 9)

 

[skubv8]

auto or manual dccd is better? very subjective. some peeps like auto so don't have to worry much.
GDB-C and GDB-D all still without wider rims and wider fender right? Right.
izit only GDB-E has the same air-con thingy as version 9? Yes.

type e


type f (version 9)

refer reply in bold.

my old car was a MY03 GDB-C.

I put the DCCD on auto all the time, mostly because I was not sure how to play with it.

hi guys, on DCCD thingy, what about the earlier models without DCCD i.e v7 ? I mean, whats the factory spec differential distribution between front and rear ? and is it true to say those without DCCD is the same as DCCD sets in auto ? since i understand the device only enables us to control the distributions to suits our favourable driving style. many thanx

 

[' xZ "]

oh.. so GDB-C/D and GDB-E's DCCD is the same?
all can be set to auto and manual?
so C/D and E has nothing different on DCCD?
only the rims and fender and aircon is different?

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, from what I know, should be 35/65.

Ony v9 STi changed to 49/51 and comes with torque sensing LSD.

Those without DCCD is the same as DCCD set in auto? Yeah, I guess you can say that. That's why if you find GDBC without DCCD, it doesn't really matter as long as the condition is good andthe ECU has not gone crazy.

someone please correct me if I'm wrong. From what I know, it should be 35/65 until v9STi when they changed to 41/59 plus the torque sensing LSD. That's why some say the handling of v9STi is much different.

From my reading, I found out that the DCCD changed a lot from v8 to v9.
Since some v9 is still GDBE, I wouldn't say the DCCD is all the same between C/D and E.
IMO, for your money the MY03 GDB-C full spec is your best buy. Full spec means it comes with DCCD and STi factory bodykit. It is the very same year Subaru won their last championship.

 

[' xZ "]

but alot GDB-C comes with the multi spokes rims which is wider, will it makes the speedometer reading wrongly?

so GDB-C is good enough?
anyone did change their rear fender to looks like version 9? it looks muscle and cool, how much does it cosT?
