    This question is either a stupid or a cool question. Is there any such thing as a Torque Distributor(controller), something that can control the amount of Torque to the front or rear wheels(adjustable)....???

    or tell me if I'm playing TOOOOOOO much Gran Turismo Video Games.....???

    It's called a center diff controller, STI's have one.

    you can make your wrx into fwd, lol, i think you pull out a fuse or something, i forget, read it in the manual

    with the wrx tranny, you can't do that
    need the 6spd one...

    no and no, unless you wanna swap trannys and ecus and rear ends, you cant get the dccd to work with your wrx, and you cant get either to make it all front or all rear. yes you can make your AUTO wrx ftw, by putting a fuse in a small hole that says FWD, but why would you want that.

    You're playing TOOOOOOO much Gran Turismo.

    The game makes it seem so simple. You chuck money at a menu item, and lo and behold, your parts are installed. You have no appreciation for how much effort the pixies inside your PS2 put into installing those parts for you. They don't even have to wait to have them shipped overnight from Japan.

    In the spirit of Gran Turismo- you give me $50,000 and I'll make an STI center diff controller work with your WRX. It should only take me a week or two.
