Default Some pics of my classic in sunny Thailand.

Weather was lovely today so gave the car a well deserved wash.
Haven't taken any pics since I changed the wheels and the seats............I'm really happy with how it stands now!!

Amazing looking car!

What's the Scooby/Jap import scene like out there? Looks like a nice place to chill.

oobyju...... It was imported about 8 years ago by the previous owner.

micheru...... The scooby scene is good here, but no where near as popular as back in the UK. Evos are just as popular. The most popular imported jap car is the Nissan Cefiro.

bioforger...... Yeah no HDR this time. Couldn't be bothered with the processing so just tweaked the curves in PS.

ricky...... spec list is as follows:

Apexi Power Fc mapped to 1.1 bar on low boost, 1.5 on high
Greddy Profec B Spec 2
Walbro 255lph fuel pump
550cc injectors
Fuelab fuel pressure regulator
Headers
3” bell-mouth downpipe
3” straight through exhaust and custom made back box
Tial 38mm external wastegate

Tein Super Street coilovers
Subaru 4 pot front calipers and modified Nissan Skyline 2 pots on the rear
18" OZ PWRC's

V6 body parts (except for the spoiler which is V5)
Alloy bonnet
Crystal light pack
RA roof vent
V-Limited front seats, V8 STI rear seats
New-age WRX steering wheel
Defi gauges

I've also had all of the aluminium parts in the engine bay hand polished, and all of the other parts chromed. Will take some photos at some point.

Not sure what power it's running exactly as it was mapped on-road and I've yet to find a dyno tester.

Very nice car. What octane fuel can you get, is that a problem? Is it very expensive to run a Subaru in Thailand? I've looked at moving there for a job, would be a big bonus if I could still drive a Subaru!

Fuel is not a problem, you can get v-power at all of the shell pumps.
Insurance is cheap, tax is very cheap.
Servicing is nothing but parts can be very expensive.
Gasoline is about 70p per litre now.
