What extras does 250TB have over 250T?

I have seen a few B-spec 250Ts around and often wonder if they have anything extra other than the Bilstein suspension?

I'm in New Zealand where the vast majority of Subaru's are imports from Japan, so these are all Japanese spec I'm talking about.

I run a TS-R which seems to have a firmer ride to a normal TS, plus it has a momo wheel and recaro seats, and I'm wondering if perhaps the 250TB has similar extras on and above the 250T.

Reading some threads here about the GTB having a few more horses than a normal GT makes me wonder if the 250TB also has more HP than a 250T (forever hopeful!!).

Does any one know, or can give me a link to a Subaru site that lists differences?

Thanks
Gary

Your best bet would be to try a search of Japanese site's useing Google and or Altavista, both have a translation program that is pretty good at translating enough to find out what the differnt models are.

Start at the Japanese Subaru home page and work on from there.

I should imagine however that all the 250 series cars have the same HP, the 2.5l engine was used as a stop gap till the 6cyl was released, and as Im sure you know the Japanese are great fans of lots of differnt trim levels.

Ok thanks Moppie, will do. I must congratulate you on your great photos! You are like me - you like to break the rules and shoot into the light shoot low, shoot anything(!) and experiment! Great stuff. What camera were these taken on? Must be something special judging by the super-closeup on the preying mantis. cheers,Gary.
