Default 1999 classic with a few upgrades

Having known this car from new was a good start so when i bought it i knew the previous owners and knew it had been looked after.
Needing a reliable everyday driver but also wanting to do more track days in something other than my cossie i thought it was a good choice.
Its done 59k, has full subaru history and every mot receipt etc and is in fantastic condition.
As i go to the nordscleiffe nurburgring as often as i can get the car needed some changes so ive just started them.
So far these consist of,
Tein coilovers
Front and rear strut braces
Straight through exhaust with 5" backbox
Yokohama prada tyres on 17" wheels
Defi gauges with controller 2
Intercooler water injection with electronic control module
Quickshift
Pillar boost gauge
And much more, heres a few pics,

















Ive got plans for big brakes.
Anthracite 18" p1 wheels
A different rear spoiler like an sti 6 but not as high level as that, will still keep my mid level as i think it suits the car.
P1 front lip spoiler
Then engine parts but wont go on about that.
It acheived an 8 min 45 lap of the ring on the last trip with a standard engine which i think is respectable but would like to see the 8 min mark somehow but we'll see.
Thanks for looking.

Cos500 - Now that is what I like...a nice looking classic which is clean, simple but effective ...though the water spray bottle needs a little TLC

Pics & Details on the Cossie pls...
