I posted a post b4, about this situation. Turns out my car is just about knackard and the 1.6 transfer might be good.

Has any one overy tryed to make the 1.6 or 1.8 look like a turbo? Or anything like that?

How reliable are scoobs? Would a 1.6 with 100k on the clock have nething left? Are they easily fixable? Etc etc. Parts cheap, common?

And such forth!

Cheers in advance!

if you're in the market for a lookalike there's a turbo lookalike on ebay, bit dear though!

By the way i think your posts have been moved to the styling section so you could try looking in there

 

Hi, if you're after a slightly cheaper lookalike this one's going on ebay, Click Here

 

Here's Mine 2.0 4WD up For Sale (Finance Availble though my work+Warranty) £7495

 

If i was gonna do it. could i get the 1.6 awd car to look like urs m8. cos it looks fuding awsome!

Thats what i want!

Would an L REG one do. Are there any problems, how much did it cost to convert. etc etc etc.

Cheers in advance

I don't see why it wouldn't work on a 1.6 but you had better get friendly with a breakers and a spray shop! Basically you will need

Bonnet
spoiler
front and maybe rear bumpers
side skirts
front grill
spotlights
Headlights

Prices will vary depending on where you source the parts from and the colours/ condition, if they are the same colour as your base car then you are laughing, you will have to tell your insurance and this will bump it up a bit, you could try looking at a 2.0l sport which has all the bumpers etc already.

Go to Imprezasport.net it's a sport owners website and will give you more info on what you are looking for

 

Ok. im only 18 so i cant afford a 2litre. Looks like i might just have to wait

damn

 

I was 18 when i got it, I've only just turned 19
