Default Oop's i did it again, Subaru Impreza

After a long and hard decision i have finally decided to give up on the Rs Cosworth's, After owning 3 of them and 2 really stunning 1's so i got rid and also got rid of the last Subaru Impreza and then the hunt went on looking at every aspect of what car i should get and finally picked this up, Being as i am most probably the only person on earth to actually like them from when they 1st come out i took the bullet and found 1 and got it for a very good price and for once i am "in pocket" lol (Not for long i bet fpmsl

2001 Bugeye Subaru Impreza

At the mo it has the PPP on it but looking at changing that and a few other bits to get it where i want it.

So far a new clutch is on order Exedy pink racing clutch and lighten fly wheel, I have also done some other bits to it, Once the clutch is fitted and can find a decat exhaust off we go mapping, (Reason for the clutch is because its starting to slip in 4th and 5th so lets do things properly!)

think the car is only running about 240/250bhp or thats what i feels like to me so nout to crazy!

Spec...
Cat 1 alarm
Active tracker
Percy plate
Pro drive performance pack
AVCR Boost controller
Forge Dump valve
Twin head light conversion
K&N air panel filter
Walbro 255 fuel pump
Super blue racing brake fluid
NGK PFR7B Spark plugs
Exedy pink racing clutch and lighten flywheel

Future plans so far is...

Lose the GHEY Spolier and replace it with a high level spoiler
Centre pod gauges where the old clock goes but need to look into this some more on fitment
TD05 or bigger turbo

Cheers guys!

The clutch and Fly wheel was £450 from As Performance but is usually £480 but as ive brought 1 off Alyn AS Performance a few months back and he done the 2nd 1 £30 cheaper (The other clutch was for my old Subaru but then ended up selling it and the clutch to someone on here and me being jinxed i brought another car with clutch slip! lol) They also come with warranty so thats another good thing!

Very nice mate looks cracking but no way worth 7k same with the plate! Sorry buddy but its true!

I sold my last cossie for 4k with a new engine from A1 Rally sport stage 3 with new T34 new diff 200block HIGH SPEC etc... Cossies have dropped in the market big time because of all the jap stuff coming over thats more reliable and even now thats dropping in the market today!

Good luck with the sale though bud!
