Hi guys came across this site while looking for info on a B4. Basically looking at getting a new car and the legacy B4 caught my eye. I would like to get one as new as possible. I like the 03 onwards model. What are these like? Driving a 1999 Altezza at the moment and while i love it to bits, its just seriously lacking power(210bhp with 170ft l/bs) and i don't want to go adding a turbo or supercharger to it as it would not only cost a fortune, would make the car less reliable and harder to sell on.
I know they changed the models in 03 so im wondering is there any major performance differences between the pre 03 and newer shape. Also curious was the new shape B4 ever on sale from the dealer in Ireland or are they all jap imports. What fuel are they designed to run on? I presume 100 Ron fuel but just wanna double check. Can the factory ECU be remapped to a different fuel?
Sorry for all the questions, just really wanna do my research on my next car. i have loads more but ill ask them later! 8)
Cheers
Dan
