Morning all,

Had a few queries regarding how much im wanting to free up from a part ex so thought I'd post here so its clear.

I'm looking at freeing up 5k so ideally I'm wanting a vehicle valued around 10k or under.

Thanks

Looking for a nice impreza part ex.
Can be a 3dr classic to new age. I'm quite open minded
I've got my eye on a couple in the For sale section I wouldn't mind having a nose around at so I'm also open to offers

Cheers

 

Hi all,

I've just spent around 3 hours giving her a Megs next gen shampoo and Megs Tech wax.
Comes up stunning so should rule out some peoples doubts about has the yellow faded etc hopefully as I've had a few asking. Every panel is stunning and hopefully the close up pics show this.

Here is the photobucket slide show with 44 various pics: Here

And here is a few linked:













Plenty more close ups in the slideshow for those interested :smthumbup

OMG I have a soft spot for yellow cars having owned 2 previous - Looks stunning buddy GLWTS

 

Thanks mate

I am tempted to put provisionally sold but I don't want to count my chickens just yet... Although its looking promising

 

Very nice!! Stunning example. Excellent colour combo. I was never sure about the yellow on the earlier evo 7/8 which was a lighter shade of yellow than on the 9. Whereas your's is a proper bright ferrari yellow and perfect with the dark and carbon extras. Makes me re-think whether I should have gone for an evo instead of my subaru. How much power is it outputting? Shame you have to sell.

 

Thanks mate, I will be sad to see it go but want to put some of the cash into the house renovation but will still try and keep a toy

Just over 400 @ 1.8bar, 350ish at 1.4. Got the graphs so will get the exact figures.

I know what you mean, the earlier Evos are more of a custard yellow.

Cheers

 

thats is sex on wheels! i would punch my mum streight in the face for that car! glwts!!!

 

 

bttt

 

Bttt

 

gorgeous mate. credit too you.

 

Great looking car, good luck with the sale, the pics further down with the deeper dish alloys do it for me

 

I've passed details of this onto my mate.

He was after a 6 but seems most are being sold by morons.

 

now that's really quite nice, one of the few evo's i'd think of getting rid of my type r for

 

Thanks

Thanks mate, they did me too But decided to put a few things back to standard to re-coupe some cash from a sale. (also had a nur spec r fitted which is now back to the RC developments system)

Thanks very much, appreciate it Let me know if you need anymore info.

Thanks mate

 

Hiya

Whats the tax for a year on one of these? Also do you know what bhp/torque its running?

 

Tax is just over £200 for a year.

The old graph I have:
BHP figure is at the wheels (301.3) which converts to just under 400bhp at the flywheel due to the transmission losses. This however was at 1.70bar.
The car is now mapped to 1.85bar of boost and I had a different induction kit and exhaust fitted since the rolling road graphs.
The tuner stated with the additional boost and more breather friendly mods the car will be running in excess of 400bhp and it felt a much smoother power delivery when he was out mapping the car to accomodate the new mods.

Torque is 382ft/lb on old graph, maybe a bit more now.

To be honest, I could really do with getting it on the r/r for its exact figure since the additonal mods.

Cheers

 

Thats brillant, I will pass on.

I must say I am quite tempted myself and I never thought I would want to get rid of my Type R!!

 

No problem, thanks.
I am open to part ex as well either classic or new age.

Cheers

 

How many miles on average does it do to a tank. I know this is probably hard to answer but just an idea. No motorway miles if me or a mate owned it.

Is it ok as an everyday car or a weekend toy?

Any known faults with this model?

Sorry for all the questions!

 

I usually get 180 miles to the tank, sometimes 200. This is with no motorway miles.
The tank takes approx £60 (vpower only)

It's a great daily drive (drives as standard off boost, clutch is nice and not heavy, Eibach springs and Billie dampers offer a comfy ride but with nice stance) but for me it is mainly a weekend car (sometimes not even that, hasn't been out the garage for almost a fortnight for other than a few mile run and wash/wax). Unless if the weather is good, then I find it hard to go to work in a 1ltr 3 cylinder Corsa (the evo is a second car)

No known faults from me, I've owned 2 Evo 9 GT's, a 8MR and a 7 Extreme. More often than not standard Brembo discs can warp, I've had performance friction discs and pads fitted on this and 2 previous Evo's, the Extreme came with AP's as standard so was no need to change the brake setup on that. An issue with my 8MR was the 3 ACD lights coming on with the dash which was due to a AYC pump fault (ended up being the pressure switch thankfully). The GT's have RS drivetrain so doesn't have AYC so I've not had the 3 ACD light problem. Cant think of any other common issues I've had with any of them. Writing this, I'm wondering why I am selling. If it wasn't for the house extension/renovation it wouldn't be for sale, the only time I've spent on the car is for modifications (carbon bits etc), servicing or petrol/tax etc. Its never had to go to a garage for diagnosing a fault or repair.

No problem, anything else just ask.

Cheers
