Some of you may may know my car from youtube with the "impreza with Launch control" clip some years ago. I've owned the car from 18,000 miles and 11 years. Its now showing 123,000 although the only original thing is the seats and body and dash!!
I won't bore you all with the early years as these are mostly tears and poor engine re-builds. Suffice to say I have had many evolutions in my wagon
From Standard V5 STI I have been through the 300, 400 and now the 500hp barrier. I have junked gearboxes, diffs and drivshafts not to mention piles and piles of money but I have to say this year is the only year thats beaten that first feeling back in 2001 when I first bought it of total and utter satisfaction.
Today:
Built EJ25 - Forged internals
SC460 Turbo
850cc injectors
Bosch 044, parralel fuel rails
FMIC
RCM ceramic headers and revolution motorsport 3.5" de-cat system
Alcatek Ecu
All work done by Chrs Palmer Auto Services in Bristol - Spen and Nik
2008 Spec C gearbox with centre adjustable diff, R180 rear diff with custom driveshafts.
Exedy Twin plate Hyper Clutch
Exe-tc coilovers with top adjustables, Perrin adjustable anti-rollbars. Polybushed on every single mounting point.
Rota 18" T2Rs with Yokhama Advan Neova AD08 265 35 r 18
supplied by my dear friend Maggs at Ruislip Tyres
it was mapped by Bob Rawle three weeks ago and made 503hp on 20% methanol and 530 ft/lbs @4500rpm - check the SC460 Scooby clininc thread for the power graphs.
Anyhow enjoy some pics:

The wide arch kit looks brilliant!
If I had the time and money I would like to do just a few of the mods you have done!
I do like the look of these classics I didn't think many of these around still fewer on the road now.
All in all a good looking car well loved!

Jura- I was hoping you would pop up- Love the Bugeye!!
The arches are very aggressive on the GF8 shape I think the Bug could do some more sophisticated shapes and still look awesome.
we should organise a wagon meet methinks.

Then me and Maggs from Ruislip wanted to go utterly insane on the tyre and rim front so we maxed out on the T2Rs and the Yoko AD08s
wasn't expectng it to work so well on the handling front. you may notice that it rides quite high thats simpy to allow the suspension the suspension to move with out rubbing the arches away.

Mainly Shifting old Crates as long as you can lug a load, some shopping, a couple of jerrycans of methanol pre-mix or a dog or two then its pretty sweet by me.
your cars looking fine IMHO

I had the exact same car, sonic blue wagon. Mine was an EU import, they didn't come in sonic blue on MY00 in the uk as std as far as I know. A few people ordered rhd cars via euro dealers and collected them and drove them over here.
Miss mine, as you say very rare. Wish I'd never sold it.

Here is SCrappy Doo 2
Its pretty much Stock at the minute.. So not in the same league as some of the other Wagons here Jura S100BY.. but there are plans for next year...
Current mods Ann and I have done so far include:
HKS Panel Filter
HKS BOV
Japspeed Centre Pipe
Ninja Backbox
Top Secret 18 wheels..
HTA Front Grill
Colour Coded Side Reflectors
Sick Speed Horns
Some engine tidying
Full Service including Millers Oils and NGK PF7s
Next year he will be getting full decat, uprated fuel pump, Hawk Injectors and a remap to let some more ponies out, along with a sensible drop..

Here's a few of mine since:
Removing the roof bars
Rolling the arches
Fitting the new wheels (Rota Force)
Spraying the head lights
Moving the horn out of view
Still got lots I'd like to do....Plan to change the grills top and bottom next, have the inlet and rear brakes powder coated, replace the exhaust from turbo back for 3" and then have it tweeked on the map.

Seeing how you asked soooooo nicely (notice my sarcasm )...
here's a link to a guide for doing it - I'm pretty confident the part numbers listed on this thread are the right ones - however when you go to your dealer they should be able to confirm..
Give us a shout if can be any more help
cheers
