Well the WRX in the new shape are alot heavier then the previous model but around 100 or os kilo.. But they do take better to mods then then the old version... a 2002 WRX with the same mods as say a 97 WRX, the 02 will be faster as the engine breaths alot better.. around a track the 02 is faster due to revises suspension and interior is also finished off alot better.. in Australia we can not have a SUNROOF
damn it .. i was hopeing for one of them.. Lastly the gearbox in the 01 onwards are alot stronger
