Not too slow for 360 bhp?

Free bttt

I don't think you should sell either Graham. You have put too much into this car to stop now. Drive this car for another season as is and just have fun, save the money you need to do the 2.35 properly and get competitive again the following year. Just my 2p worth.

Wishing you all the best whatever you decide in the end.

I find trying to sell the car more tiring than working on it!
Hate selling and buying cars.

Richard: You are prob right. If I fail in selling (doesn't look too good does it?)
then it will be stripped of weight over 2008 and some kind of big engine done using the Sti as a donar.

Will race the old 911 next year as it is just so nice.

Graham

No, not looking too good at the moment. Sometimes these things happen for a reason. I get the distinct feeling that eveyone on SN wants you to stay

Sounds like a great plan. Sure you'll have a blast driving the 911 again ... she is a beauty and enjoy seeing the STi develop ready for the following season.

Nothing to do with me staying, just the price i think!

Many would like to see a selling price of 6K max for this 'mildly modded' Sti but it sure does go for the mods it has!

give it a bit longer.
Will stop to sell on here when I've run out of old vids!

Yours is very close to mine now?
Touch more suspension and slicks and you will be right there I think?

Thanks for the pics and the words!

It does. Quite a balanced package of a chassis more than capable of allowing all the engine to be used with certainty.

Just drives where you point it.

Maybe too rich for some on here?

I think that it's the price too So many mods mean that £12k should be a steal ... it's just that most people will look at age of the car & £12k won't compute. You need to find the person that is looking for a focused car like this to do what you've been doing for years. They'll come along eventually.

TX:
You are dead right.

Until you have been through the modding thing especially for a RACE car rather than a quick road car (very different animal) few know what is involved and the blood sweat and tears you go through.

Maybe someone will spot it. In no hurry to sell.

I should keep it but have other plans for racing if I can sell @ £12K.

It is hard to get across the 'package' of this car, how i've spent time and £££££ to blend everything to compliment each other which makes for a very fast car.

Someone will notice soon perhaps, or I will keep it and change the plan again!

I can appreciate what an excellent spec the car is, my ra used to keep pace with a 500bhp R32 and a 420 coswoth (well, up to 100 ) but, to be brutally honest I think you're going to have to rethink your plans.

I want to move on to another class in hillclimbing, and the Impreza needs to go first.
This is a very well modified car, a hard running car but docile enough for a holiday run to France or Sainsbury's.

Here goes for the longest ad on Snet:

The car:

White STi V3 MY 97 saloon, 34K miles and imported in 2001, thus a P plate.
This is the car when I first had it, stone stock.

Mods:
Suspension:

Very special AST 3 way syspension system developed by Powerstation for hillclimbing. Killer on track and raod, nice and compliant/controlled.
These are the property of Powerstation, but I'm sure an arrangement can be made to the new owner.
Whiteline:
ALK/ front 22mm/rear 24mm with 27mm options roll bars/ Roll-center kit/ lower strut brace/ rear diff lock, rear lower tansvers control arms.
All bushes poly bushed inc the rear diff carrier.
Quickrack with poly bushes.
Demon set-up by Powerstation and John F.






Wheels/tyres:
Set of hillclimb AVON slicks on Sti 16'' and a set of P1 17's with near new road tyres.



Engine:
Sti Red-top V3 2 litre with new head gaskets and ARP head studs by API Engines 3 years ago.
TD-05 20g AndyF turbo @ 1.6 bar
3'' decat from API and Revolution system, all 3'' and quiet! (97 dB)
550cc injectors/Walbro 225 pump/SX fuel regulator and parallel fuel rail mod.
Engine breather mod.
Hybrid FMIC with wrapped pipes where needed, manual water spray.
Gruppe S v2 headers with helix up-pipe all wrapped
Group N engine mounts/ Prodrive gearbox mounts.
Cone filter with under-wing and bonnet edge cold air feed to cold box.
Apexi FC ecu with AndyF map for Vmax.

378 bhp (Powerstation RR) or 407 bhp at Well Lane.



Transmission:
Type R 754 V6 dccd trans, 5 speeder recently checked by API Engines.
Rear plated diff by API rebuilt and all 4:444 ratio.
Micro adjustable dccd controller.
AP organic clutch
Will do this all day:
DropShots.com

Brakes:
4 pot Subaru with Pagid blue pads and NO abs. Full brake balance adjustment with AP valve. ABS removed because of dccd.

Interior:
6 point rollcage, bolted in.
Race seat with 4 point harness set very low in the car. Stock seat available.



So, a hard running competative Impreza which can go much faster with a young driver!

Some overall pics for you:





DropShots.com
DropShots.com

This is a hard decision to sell this car, so any silly remarks or comments will be abruptly replied to.

The price is about £12K as you see it in the pics.
I am not desperate to sell, and the car is advertised in the hillclimbing fraternity where there is a bit of interest.

911.
nice car m8 see you have a lot of whiteline goodies on your car best of luck selling it m8 geo

The Whiteline stuff has been superb, and does everything you need.
