Default Welcome, Mr 25

Finally got my new type 25 after what seemed like an age of anticipation . I've had a couple of lairy looking cars prior to this which have drawn attention, so I've gone for a subtle as possible with the A-line version, debadged with anthracite alloys which looks relatively discrete for a car with such huge performance (although I'm still running it in at the moment).


Sorry for the quality of some of the pictures, and the appearance of Charlie cat who has already learned to guard it!

I'll have to get some better piccies up on the road once I've had a bit more fun with it.

Hope you like it

Thanks for the comments.
I don't know why the pictures are so small, I've tried some of the other photobucket options and this seems to be the only one that works, but when you click on the thumbnail it's supposed to be full screen, but it doesn't work once they've been cut and pasted- and I've no idea. Any ideas anyone??

Regarding the specs- The base car is the A-line which is basically a JDM spec-D Sti. It only comes with that small boot lip spoiler as standard only comes in urban grey, black or white, has half leather interior, and extra soundproofing compared to the spec-C.
The type-25 bit refers to the 2.5l subaru/cosworth engine (replacing the 2l JDM engine), Miltek exhaust, AST suspension set up and chassis mods. The 18 inch wheels are not standard but are essential to fit the Porsche 6 pots behind these are an optional extra for the type 25 but pretty much every buyer so far has opted for them I'm told.

Otherwise I've just had all the Sti badges removed from the outside including the front splitter even and swissol paintwork treatment.

It sounds really loud at idle, apparently the exhaust is 102dB at full chatter, but I guess the neighbours will have to wait until after I've done the first 1000 miles to find that out!

Hopefully these links should give enlarged versions of the pictures above (some of them are a bit blurred though)

Oh by the way I've just seen your car sammyh, very nice!
