New to Scooby Net My Spec-C V-Limited (with S204 Added)
Hello Lads,
I am new to Scooby Net and am based I Dublin. I am a << ISDC - Irish Subaru Drivers Club - ISDC >> member for the last while
Here are a few pics of my MY 2006 Spec-C V-Limited
She ran a 12.6 at SSO this year, so is farily quick in std spec
The white wheels are part of her spec as its a Toshi Arai special edition Spec-C.
I bought the car last year from Japan and it has been great since then
Cheers,
Michael
PS Thanks to Andy F for coming to Ireland and doing the remap for our 95ron stupid fuel (no super available in Ireland
)

to celebrate him winning th 2005 goup-n championship They are a great car, but do not expect any creature comforts, like nice supesion etc
You do get e.w, a.c, e.m which are a novelty on a spec-c. You also get a bigger ball bearing twin-scroll turbo
Cheers,
Michael

Looks cool.
What sort of import rules are there in Ireland? Is it easier to import than over here, or do you have the same model report stuff?

So Irish car = Jap price + 10% import duty (into Europe) * 1.21 (vat) + 30% of Irish retail value (which they guess) = RIPOFF
You can see why we buy so many English cars with these tax laws. Only Ireland & Portugal have these laws......
Cheers,
Michael

just a rollerbearing version The VF42 has the same housing as a VF22, bigger turbo basically, comes from the S203/S204/RA-R, got a better top end but you dont really lose much low down which is nice

Hello Lads,

Video of Dave Leggy Run - Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

PS I know the footage is fairly crap, but you would want to see her in a tunnell, on the way to SSO and on the way back (
we are barred )
