No, it's a HB Subaru. Just because Ride makes one or possibly makes this one for them doesn't mean they are the same. I don't see the hood induction scoop on the RIDE version. But I am blind.

It's the HB Subaru Impreza Type C. It should be released very soon. Ride's Subaru body is based off of a Legacy B4... Shapes are similar but they are different. The HB body was designed in house at HPI/HB, as were Type A and type B as well.

hi Matt

Im running the 3Racing blue one's. I fuond them a touch tight in the outdrive slot so just rubbed them carefully on some 1000 grit wet'n'dry till then slide in with no slop. Hey presto sorted, and alot cheaper than the HB one's to.

As for diff oil , I tried 80 wt out and found not alot of difference to the 1000wt Associated, to be fair the 1000Wt gave me more rear end traction out of bends. Im going to stick with that. however I did blow the teeth on one of the bevel gears though at Adur, so got a repair kit for it now.

How does it compare to other bodies? Like the LTC-R (my current favorite)?

LittleAlex- Team HB brought some to the Reedy Race. so I managed to grab a couple.

Hanulec- With the LTC-R I had alot of front scrub speed. with the Subaru it got rid of it. The car had a lot more high corner speed.
