I've no idea, niether does the previous owner. Absolutely no sign of any accident damage though, its proper mint. Perhaps its why the seatbelt light won't go out. One to investigate.

Damn, you must have spent a bit of cash on that... so there goes my hopes that you'd stop hosting the pictures on your threads on a some kind of 1980's calculator connected to the internet

Seriously, I look forward to see what you do to this one

The Seatbelt light is to do with the plug under the seat I think, it only stopped working when I took the seats out to clean them!

Sent you a PM on 22B mate!

As nice as this is, I'm gutted - that to acquire it - you had to offload the half-done blue Classic.

Would've loved to see that project come to fruition...........

What bhp is the Blob running? What turbo and FMIC, etc is on it?

In answer to some of the questions I've had.

Whilst I was gutted to not be able to finish the project I don't for one second regret the decision i've made.

The New car is lovely, obviously it's not anywhere near as quick as the white one but that's neither here nor there for the time being.

Drive wise its awesome, comfortable quick and feels like a new car.

Spec is as follows:

2005 Wide Track JDM STI
Engine:

Simtek ECU with Launch Control and Anti Lag enabled
Litchfield LM450 Twin Scroll Turbo
Litchfield Heatshield
Power Enterprise 800cc Injectors
Japspeed Front Mount Intercooler painted Black
Zerosports Induction Kit
Viper Silicon Intake pipe
Walbro Fuel Pump
Full Zerosports Turbo Back Exhaust with Sports Cat
Perrin EBCS 3 Port Boost solenoid


Chassis:

Standard STI Suspension with Prodrive Lowering Springs
Ultra Racing Front ARB 23mm
Perrin Rear ARB 25mm with Stout Mounts
Perrin Rear Droplinks

Drivetrain:

Exedy Pink Clutch

Brakes:

Godspeed Grooved discs all round
EBC Orangestuff Front Pads
EBC Orangestuff Rear Pads
Goodridge Brake Lines
Castrol SRF Brake Fluid

Wheels:

Standard STi alloys refurbished with no marks at all in Anthracite
Yokohama AD08 Tyres in proper 235/45/17 JDM Size less than 500 miles
Mudflaps

Bodywork:

HT Autos Front Splitter
Spec C Roof Vent
Genuine Subaru HID Headlights
Scoobyworld Mudlflaps

Interior:

Dash trims painted in Black like S204
Standard STI Interior


In short I love it. Future plans will be a 2.1 stroker and a GT30R Billet. For now though I'm loving every minute of just driving it.

It looks as though it has had a new wing on the O/S/F Daz...

Looks a cracking car though.

I can assure you it hasn't.

Colour is spot on even under sodium lighting.

The front bumper has been taken off for FMIC fitment but I promise you the car is absolutely mint.
