Black GC8 From Malaysia
#1
Dear All,
This is my 1996 UK Spec version 2 wrx. Everything is pretty stock expect I have changed the wheels to 5 Zigen inperio 17inches, cat less 3inches exhaust piping with HKS N1 back box, Version 5 rear spoiler, and SYMS front lower lip. The rear head lights were changed to Sti, and side repeaters were changed to the clear one as well. Now I am looking for the fog light covers and some adjustable coilovers to that i can lower the car. After market parts are very hard to obtain in Malaysia as there aren't many Scoobies on the road. The local dealer is crap and not giving us any support. I bought this car when i was studying in bristol few years ago..and brought it back!
Nice knowing all of you.
This is my car the moment I brought it back in from the UK.
Then, I changed the rims to 5 Zigen Inperio, bronze/gold colour..
I also changed the rear spoiler to version 3 sti.. retint the rear windows to 170%..and some MY03 Sti replica decals on the side doors
Then..i changed the front seats to recaro.. pretty cheap in Malaysia.. roughly 3800 malaysian..which is about 600 quid..
then.... this is the best... it took me 6 months to source for the rear spoiler.. finally got one from singapore..and it costed me 500 sing dollars..notice the exhaust pipe? it's 4.5 inches.. hahahaha
then... the front lip.. managed to get it from singapore as well...and pretty darn expensive too....
SO, any comments on how i can improve this car?
i really miss the UK... the car show in earl's court... the birmigham motor show.... maxpower... london.... the sun page 3....
gosh... i really wish i can go back there... nothing in Malaysia!!!
cheers

Gents..
thanks very much for the compliments..
it costed me 1500 quid to send the car ex bristol port to Malaysia via ship. The whole journey took about 23 days.
SInce I was a student, Malaysian government only charged me 25% of tax as opposed to 300% tax to all brand new imported cars that were brought into Malaysia..
cars in malaysia are damn expensive..
a brand new MY03 wrx is 30000 pounds.
the new bugeye sti is about 40,000 pounds...
