Nope tc! How's things?
Cant find either a decent EVO or JDM STi 9
So much crap out there, damaged, finance, overpriced, crap mods etc...!

Sounds nice. Is it a 99 model? Give me a shout if you need any modding tips, I know the classic cars quite well.
I currently have a Micra
Ive had 5 scoobs, couple of STi's and just looking for number 6

Nice one Mark, I'll definitely be speaking to you about possible mods.
I'd like to keep it looking fairly standard but the addition of some subtle skirting all round, exhaust and maybe proffessionally lowered and uprated sports suspension would be cool.
It's got standard Gold 16s on it at the moment and they look ok and I reckon it might look cool enough just dropping the car a few millimeters
You gonna be at the meet in November? If so, you could take a look then and we can talk about where to go with her.
Cheers!

Whack on a Nurspec (theres the noise mmm) and the top end is fine. I found it weird going from my ITR which revved to high heaven to something that felt stifled. As I say the Blitz system has helped that, not sure what its like on the dyno mind you.

Narrow escape, you would think that a company like that with a previously untarnished rep would chalk that car up as a mistake and get rid on Autotrader/Ebay etc, not try and punt it of to enthusiasts on this board.
I admire the way you have stringently researched your prospective purchases, I'd buy any old sh1tbox through impatience.
