Default Back again 😍 ( MY98 EJ22t 2.35 Sti Type R )

Back in 2003 I bought my first MY00 Uk Impreza Turbo 🥰




In 2005 I had alittle upgrade and went to a MY98 Impreza Type R
After 2 years of ownership and lots of money spent on a EJ22t 2.35 build I decided in 2007 to part with it to get onto the property market 🥺




So with the new house I went back to another love, the Mk2 Ford Orion 😍





Well 14 years on I’ve decided to part with it… 🥺🥺🥺

But I’ve come back to Impreza ownership 😉😋😊 not just any though…
I’ve purchased my old Type R back 🥰🥰🥰👍🏼








Some of you may remember the diy rebuild in my parents living room back in 2006-2007? 😂

Upgraded a few bulbs, fitted all new crystal clear sidelights, front and side indicators…
I’ve purchased a genuine Version 5 rear boot spoiler but need the little piece that sits below the brake light, dunno if anyone is reproducing this bit?

Just a few pics and updates really…
Version 5/6 front grill painted fitted along with some 22B rep bonnet vents
Sold the Version 5 rear spoiler and found a Version 6, just need to paint it and fit it…
Same with the genuine P1 front fog light grills, will fit them once I’ve got round to painting them….

Slowly sourcing all parts needed to replace the flocked dash.
Nos passenger top glove box source £££’s
The plastic trims for the centre console arrived over the weekend, I’ve just gotta collect steering wheel column upper/ lower surround plus a boot carpet and spare wheel board
