hi all finally purchased my first scoob

impreza wrx 2001 bugeye with a couple of issues but it was a bargain so I couldn t refuse it.
at the min the spec is:
Raptor vortex ss backbox and full catback system
Scooby clinic mudflaps
Collins dump valve
custom blue and black leather interior
tinted windows
flyeye'd rear lights and side markers
possibly remapped but no prove so I m guessing not

as I mentioned above couple of issues tapping/knocking from the engine think its a cam shim in the process of taking the engine out now for a look will update you.


anyway here some pics







after owning it 12hrs maybe its in this state

Nice looking car, I was parked up near it last summer at the NBO show.

thanks cant wait to get it running right and looking how I want it. so annoyin buying the car then driving 25miles home at 2k rpm

don t suppose you d know the previous owners at all? like to see what mods have been done I don't know about mapping etc..

Hope the price took into account a possible bottom end failure. Not unheard of on older WRX engines.

winno@PJC

yea it did. I don't mind tell you how much I paid anyway £1100 I have a engine afew miles away if need be anyway for cheap

thenewgalaxy

£1100 is an excuse to go nuts if you ask me

winno@PJC

yea :-) going steady with engine mod to start with just tidying it up new wheels lowering springs fmic get rid of dump valve decat's and go crazy cleaning everything

I don't remember what mods the previous owner has done to it off hand but I do remember him posting a load of photos on tyneteesscoobies one day.

That's cheap enough - mine is quite tappety although the clearances have been checked and it's fine on paper. It's been running like that for the 7-years I've had it.
