STI may refer to:
The Subaru Impreza is a compact automobile that has been manufactured since 1992 by Subaru. Subaru introduced the Impreza as a replacement for the Leone, with the Leone's EA series engines replaced by the newer EJ series versions.
Now in its fourth generation, Subaru has offered four-door sedan and five-door hatchback body variants since 1992; the firm also offered a coupe from 1995 until 2000. Mainstream versions have received naturally aspirated "boxer" flat-four engines ranging from 1.5- to 2.5-liters, with the performance-oriented Impreza WRX and WRX STI models uprated with the addition of turbochargers. Since the third generation series, some markets have adopted the abbreviated Subaru WRX name for these high-performance variants. The first three generations of Impreza in North America were also available with an off-road appearance package titled Subaru Outback Sport. For the fourth generation, this appearance package became known as the Subaru XV, and is sold internationally.
The Ford Focus is a compact car (C-segment in Europe) manufactured by the Ford Motor Company since 1998. Ford began sales of the Focus to Europe in July 1998 and in North America during 1999 for the 2000 model year.
In Europe, North and South America, and South Africa, the Focus replaced the various versions of the Ford Escort and Ford Laser sold in those markets. In Asia and Australasia, it replaced the Ford Laser. As of the first half of 2012, the Focus surpassed the Toyota Corolla to become the world's best selling automobile nameplate.
Ford of Europe introduced the Focus in 1998 to the European market as a replacement for the Ford Escort. The decision to name the new car the "Ford Focus" was made in early 1998, as Ford's overheads had been planning to keep the "Escort" nameplate for its new generation of small family cars. A last minute problem arose in July 1998 when a Cologne court, responding to a case brought by the publisher Burda, ordered Ford to avoid the name "Focus" for the cars in the German market since the name was already taken by one of its magazines (Focus). This eleventh hour dispute was resolved, however, and the car was launched with the name Focus. The Focus MK1 was awarded the 1999 European Car of the Year award. There is also a tale floating around certain editions of Motor Trend magazine that Ford executive Jac Nasser actually made the decision of the name Focus the night of that year's Geneva Auto Show because he was annoyed that one of the other names under consideration, Fusion (not the same as the mid-size automobile Ford Fusion), had leaked to the media.
Subaru (スバル) /subəru/ (Japanese pronunciation: [tsʊbɑːrʊ]) is the automobile manufacturing division of Japanese transportation conglomerate Fuji Heavy Industries (FHI), the twenty-second biggest automaker by production worldwide in 2012.
Subaru cars are softroaders; they are known for the use of a boxer engine layout in most vehicles above 1500 cc. Most Subaru models have used the Symmetrical All Wheel Drive drive-train layout since 1972. The flat/boxer engine and all-wheel-drive became standard equipment for mid-size and smaller cars in most international markets by 1996, and is now standard in most North American market Subaru vehicles. The lone exception is the BRZ, introduced in 2012, which uses the boxer engine but instead uses a rear-wheel-drive structure. Subaru also offers turbocharged versions of their passenger cars, such as the Impreza WRX and the Legacy 2.5GT. The 2.5XT trims of the Outback and Forester also include a turbocharged engine.
In Western markets, the Subaru brand has traditionally been popular among a dedicated core of buyers. Marketing is targeted towards a specific niche centered around those who desire the company's signature drive-train.
WRX is a three-letter abbreviation that may refer to:
When friends hand you the keys to their new Ford Focus RS and Subaru Impreza STI there's only one thing to do: TRACK BATTLE! We test both at the limit at Toronto Motorsports Park to determine which is fastest, and then NV Auto pro drifter Riley Sexsmith throws the Focus RS into Drift Mode and sees what kind of skids he can do. Special thanks to NV Auto for putting this together, and to Julien for letting us rip on his shiny new STI. Bros don't let bros drive stock for long though, so you may just see a Part 2 to this battle once both cars are tuned up a bit.

Woke up to drive my 2016 WRX STI to the skatepark and there was a nasty screw in my tire! There was no better time to get my new tires for the Advan GT's that were waiting to go on in my garage! So the day the tires were delivered I packed up all the new parts and drove them over to the tire shop to get them installed onto the new wheels. I made the rookie mistake of forgetting to order Lug Nuts so I had to next day ship them and wait an extra day to get the wheels on the STI. The lugs came in so I installed the new wheels and put the stickers on them also. As i installed the wheels I noticed that the wheel gap was looking pretty big so I adjusted my coilovers and then did a debut of the new look and a review on the way the car feels with the new set up!

The Focus RS is a car of expectation and history, but it drops into a market that does have excellent competition. We gathered the three other AWD, 300hp cars available for around $40k, and went to a favorite road in search of fun. That means we dusted off an Evo X to stand alongside the Golf R and enduring STI in this showdown with the shiny new, nitrous blue, RS. Rarely have we been this excited for a comparison. And after driving them back to back, the results were not what we expected. Subscribe for Videos on Thursdays!

How can a car that is 10 years old, hold its value so damn well? Because that car is perfect, thats how. Today, I found myself in a slightly modified 2005 Subaru STi!

The 2018 Subaru WRX STI is up for speculation as the current model is soon to be replaced. But what do you expect from the once rally legend? A lot of interest centres around the replacement of the 2.5 litre boxer engine as well as using lighter materials. Power figures around 400bhp would make it competitive with new rivals such as the Ford Focus RS and AMG A45. When considering the latest all wheel drive hot hatchbacks, refinement is a key topic as they use technology such as adjustable dampers to deliver performance and comfort. This will be important for the 2018 Subaru WRX STI in European markets. The new Subaru Impreza has a chassis that is 50% stiffer and so this strengthening is expected to continue with the WRX STI.

I take a ride with Brandon Vasquez in his 2015 Subaru STi launch edition. Brandon's car has a reputation as being one of the meanest 2015+ STi street machines around Denver– and boy does it live up to that reputation. Are you interested in knowing more about who built this beautiful Subaru STi? As mentioned, the car was built by Metro Performance, now known as Metro Performance of SoCal. Check out their website at: http://www.metroperformance.net Also a big thank you to Speedy Roo Motorsports for hosting such an awesome dyno day event for the South Denver Subaru Club.

7 Reasons Not To Buy The 2016 Subaru WRX STI. The Subaru WRX STI is an amazing car, but it does have its disadvantages. The engine (EJ257) is dated, tracing its ancestry back to 2004, with total horsepower relatively unchanged. All of the power is on the top end, there's fairly significant turbo lag, and the fuel economy is terrible. Cargo space and the fuel tank are smaller than the previous generation's hatchback, and with the new WRX performing almost equally well on the street, it's hard to justify the extra expense. Most importantly, with the 2016 Ford Focus RS around the corner, it's promising more power, less weight, and an equivalent price. Certainly worth checking out before writing a $40k check.
