Thats the Subaru kit although now looking closer at the white one its not the same.
Original Subaru Aero kit:


After market kit of unknown origin:



I am guessing its an aftermarket kit but cant find any information on it at all.
Looks like a copy which has been changed slightly to avoid legal issues with Subaru.

It looks amazing though

Any help on ID'ing this ?

 

Glad you like it I don't lol, I really want to get the original back on, don't think this style of bumper suits the spec c.

 

How does it fit on?

 

As far a I can see it is bonded on over the orginal front bumper, so I think it would be impossible to remove, it would just be a straight bumper swap to remove.

 

The original is better......its got sharper lines and has bit more detail within the design.......the copy is just to rounded for me.....but then again I'm about my c's

BTW the Spec c bumper is just a standard WRX saloon bumper, last time i checked they were 204 + vat from Subaru (unpainted).......

 

Its a shame its been bonded and a shame my car is WR Blue

 

Perhaps its a bit marmite, I think it looks better than the original.

 

Yeah I was hoping a white one might come up for sale at some point, if it don't I think that will be the route i will go down.
Cheers

 

PM me if you do decide you want rid of it

 

I will keep you in mind, best just send a pm and I will save it to my inbox then if I do decided to get rid I will give you a shout.
Cheers

 

A few of my latest scooby, 1st two are from the previous owner, Had the last impreza nearly 5 years before an accident, Hope to have this one a lot lot longer,

2003 Subaru WRX STI Spec-C Limited in Red, Still tryin to find out how many were made in red and how many we`ve got here in the UK, So far i know of 3 in total in the UK, Any info would be appretiated if you have any, Thanks, Gaz.

Already posted this in the blob thread before i found this, so dont shoot me for double posting, thought it would be more suitable here.

 

Nice original looking car mate, that's what I want mine to look like, got my wheels on just need to fit front bumper and rear spoiler now.

 

should be atleast 4 red ones, one in cheshire with 44k on the clock (teacher owner), yours, one with 168k on the clock that one of the guys has on type-ra and atleast 1 other from litchfield which is still around (has the reg plate before mine).
Total production of 1000, not sure of the split but it would be something like 300 red, 300 white 400 blue, need to find the brochure again on line.

Tony, Thats nearly the same as i`ve just posted on lads about an hour ago and roughly all i know, lol

 

Funny how things go, I was the one enquiring about why you were putting you car back to standard in you for sale thread for you alloys and asking if it was for sale, Then a week later i find this

 

I have one mate


Did you just buy this ? Looks in good nick.

 

Yep, Picked it up last week, Yes it is in good nick, 36k with 9 stamps in the book, Not done more than 4.5k without a service, All original and unmolested apart from Exhaust,filter,3 port & Ecutek, only thing thats not orig are the tyres, Anyone got a spare set of re070`s, It drives like a new car and I`m lovin it at the moment.

 

Glad to see you got one then, I don't know what you drove before but I bet you don't regret buying the spec c ;-)

 

Driven a few scoobs before, my last one was a bug wrx running sti longblock with avcs, big brakes, lots of prodrive bits, had it about 5 years until an accident last month, was a good car but it's not a patch on this, power delivery and handling is somethin else, really lucky to find it.

 

If funds allow when i decide to sell my car i will be looking for one of these.What bhp are they as standard?

 

Thats a minter ,Looks great with the BBS's alloys. You are most lucky to find one I have been on the hunt for another one just not had any luck yet.

Speak to Ian Litchfield or powerstation they sometimes have some RE070's knocking about

 

standard, I think they are supposed to be 280ish with simaler torque but usually a bit more than that, mine has just had a panel filter, 3 port boost solenoid, exhaust and an Ecutek3 map all done by poweratation/litchfields and is now pushing out 357bhp/358lbft, with max torque at 3500, just wants to keep on pulling, cant fault it in anyway.

will check with litchfields about tyres, they must have some coming off some new imports sometime in the near future, cheers guys, gaz.

 

Out of the box they are quoted at 280ps/290lbs torque, they normally push more than this though

Tony

 

Does look like an excellent example, most ended up with 300-320 bhp as standard

These cars are in a different league

 

Someone say spec c







Mine is running 348/380 with a map tweek,i fitted a walbro and a fpr,just for safety realy,no chance of fuel starvation now.

I do like the red though.

 

Found this after breezing through subaru japans website, some may have to translate it...
