Alright Guy's
My car arrived from Japan in November, been a little slack getting it on the road but wanted to make sure everything was done before the MOT. Planning to take a full kitted WRX to the ring in June. Looking to get a good 300BHP, Going to start with all the basic and go form there. Few pic's from when she arrived:
Just washed off 6 weeks of sea in these pic's! Needs a good mop and will look lovely!

First on my list was full service, So changed all filters, Oil and Plugs. While changing the plugs i noticed a slight crack in the radiator! So with that bought a new rad and cambelt. Wednesday i changed the cambelt with help of a mate. This was a first attempt, rather scary! All done now and working! hope it lasts! When changing the fan's every bolt except one snapped....
