Just an early heads up for those that haven't seen it,an impreza wrx is featured on wheeler dealers next thursday at 9pm on Quest tv.

Also repeated twice on friday.

 

Is it the old episode when they put the hideous strips on the bonnet?

 

i would assume so. quest dont usually show the brand new episodes, what happened to it? i heard it was sold off camera grately reduced

 

that guy drives me nuts, i cant watch a whole episode

 

It's been on more times than Jeremy Kyle

 

no worse than the crap half the people stick to wrxs on here.

 

The car appeared on ebay last year with a huge price tag iirc.

 

Think i remember the episode

 

I gather that is was broken, I think pistonheads did a "where are they now?" article on the Jap cars of Wheeler Dealers.


Edit - link on another website, this is it

Always remember him looking underneath and saying lovely, camera shows rear diff leaking

 

Seen it last week. It didn't look too bad but those black stripes what the ****, why they wanted to put that **** on there.

 

Mmmmm black pin stripes nice lol. Don't it make u go faster . Or is that the full stripped affected bonnet/ roof/ boot. Only doing the bonnet , he would loss 10mph

 

on all the time, could play the part myself..
couple of fanny's think a wrx is proper rapid

 

The only decent restoration show was that 'For The Love of Cars'..and of course, the American ones who seem to do things properly.

 

I'm sorry guys but if you actually have a look at where most of these cars are ending up you'd realise that a set of cnuty stripes is exactly what the general WRX buyer has in mind for their "original" project.

My Facebook newsfeed is full of them!

 

I hate stickers & stripes. All that stuff

Even had the idea for taking my back spoiler off

 

then fitting nitrous on a low power wrx

 

I was trying to be nice and asking for your help . & u still have to have a dig. I got the nis kit at a great price. And made a good bit of cash back . Ok when I got the nis kit I did think it was just fit it and away u go . Now I no better . But i am getting there . May be one day I may put nitrous on a car . But not for now.
P.s don't see how 260 bhp is a slow low powered wrx . As they are 240 bhp standard . But I am Gessing we will never see eye to eye . Even when I sm asking u for help . Thanks anyway. Think I will just take my low powered wrx I meen 2000uk as I an omly running 80 bhp and sell it . Then get your car off you . But then then next day, from u it will still be a low powered car .
Dam I may just get the esl / ecu done to to shut u up. Lol.

 

nis??

 

Reminds me of the VIZ comic

 

Don't remember the viz comic .how old r u . I am 40 years s old mate.
& please don't take that the wrong way

 

So running a air flow pipe from the fog light can work that's all I need to no. Sorted . I got the covers for the fog lights, so just got to get the bit I need to have a look at what I am going to do. Let's face it more air u get in the better right .

 

I'm 47
Don't worry , age is only a number

 

Your to nice . Lol. Anyway night all.

 

Just looked at your profile pic on your car . Wow that nice . Must of cost u a lot of cash to get it there . Nice car mate

 

Well,just watched it and thought it was pretty good,but not sure what they were thinking with those stripes.

Ed's helmet was hilarious though...

 

Wheeler Dealers is OK for what it is. Of course that WRX was never going to appeal to any purists, but that is not really the aim of the show. As far as TV goes it's a reasonably entertaining 45 minutes and you can learn one or two things from it. I first saw Wicked Coatings and hydro dipping on there for instance.

 

The 1903 Darracq they tidied up for the London-Brighton was quite interesting purely on the basis you don't normally get to see someone taking the spanners to a car over 100 years old.

 

+1

its better than eastenders/x-craptor/**** in the attic and crap in the basement etc etc

 

O yes your right about that .
I like fast & loud . Got to love the way the USA do cars , lots of BHP grate for strat line racing . But would not like to go round a corner in one . I take it that's why they don't have roundabouts lol.
Just don't get one thing why do they have cars that have 400 ish BHP but there cars don't seem to be fast as jap car or Europe cars.
I may be wrong . And there is a show called street outlaws. Have any members seen it . Grate show for a car show made in the USA .
