The black STi interior will be fitted this weekend, I can't wait to get the car back on the road.
My works van just isn't up to the job of replacing the Spec C.

A couple of improvements on perfection that is all, the Spec C Motorsport is designed to be altered whence why then come with a crappy (non STi) interior, WRX 4 & 2 pot brakes etc. 
That was probably the most standard Impreza I've owned - the only real change was the exhaust and remap.

Hence no rear spoiler

It's coming along really well - the bottom end was more or less finished when I left and it's going to be quite an engine when it's finished.

This engine is going to be a real work of art when it's finished.

Thanks Dylan , I did say no photographs after all I want to keep my identity a secret (just like my alter ego The Stig 
).
I must have completed the bottom end build up that I can't even remember doing as I must have been 'in the zone'.
The engine is looking and if it goes half well as it looks then I'll be a very happy man.
Remember Dylan if you ever want some pointers then I'm your man.
