Default Joe2187's 2005 Blob Build Thread!

I finally bought another Impreza. Its a 2005 WRX.

Some of you may remember I used to have this Bug Eye in 2010...





Then I changed to a Clio Sport 182 in 2011, but missed the Impreza. So in 2012 bought this Classic...





Sold the classic & saved up the penny's for this Blob eye I have just bought in 2013, will be keeping this one now.




So Spec when I bought the car is, Powerflow Exhaust, Dump Valve, Carbon Spoiler, Front Splitter, EBC Drilled & Grooved Front & Rear Discs, EBC Red Stuff Front & Rear Pads.

Decided to go & buy some new wheels, 18" Rota Sub Zero's finished in Red.




Whilst I was changing the wheels I decided to clean up the brakes...

Before...


Ready for paint...


Painted...


Greased up...


Greased up front...


Rear fitted...


Front fitted...


Engine bay needs some cleaning & detailing which will happen next week sometime.


Carbon Spoiler...


Polished up the exhaust whilst it was on the ramp as well...


Wheels on...


Next to Countach...


Fueling up...


Plan to do quite a few bits to this so will update it as soon as more bits are done. Comments very welcome.

So glad to be back in a Scooby, & its even better that I've got a car that for once does not need a load of work.
