Default My new 05 sti wide track

Hi all,

seeing as my wagon went and blew a big end I thought I would replace it. with this. Needs the plate putting back on as I had to remove it to get rid of a grill that was on it that I didn't like.

It needs a few dents pulling out, a wheel refurb and a replacement arch extension. But other than that its tip top. Its had a fresh engine rebuild 3k ago and benefits from a lot of extras. Its a lot of car and I didn't pay too much for it either and there's stacks of history, so im very happy. I want to put a front splitter on it along with some ht autos skirt extension and i'll be happy as larry.

you can buy new arch extension pre painted from the us for just over £100.
I did this as second hand ones usually have the clips broken as you cant remove them without breaking.

looks a nice motor apart from those spoiler abortions lol

I wasn't sure about the spoiler to begin with but I really like it now.. it looks better In the flesh... and your just a grumpy ****** who likes nothing anyway

The receipt for it was nearly £800 with a trade in on a normal spoiler....£1900 new !!!

I really like it. And it's completely different to the smooth power delivery I'm used to" this thing just tickles along up to about 3,850 then kicks you in the head lol. It's brilliant!
As for the wagon, my brother has had it off me. He is putting a 46k long engine into it and doing the wide rear conversion to match the front. So it will still be about.
