2.1 500BHP TYPE R STI 22B REPLICA PROJECT
 
11 Attachment(s)
Just joined this forum and this is my first Subaru so bare with me ;)
I've tried posting pictures but I can't as the manage attachments option won't come up for me ? Says I can't post attachments lol

Anyway this is my project..
I bought a 97 white type r sti with a 22b wide arch kit already fitted but it had a knackered clutch and i then discovered it had a knackered headgasket (unexpected nightmare) after only owning the car for 3 days it was now off the road !!
Hopefully I'll work out how to post pictures of the car sooner or later lol
Got some big plans for this car I'm after 500bhp for now :
2.1 engine tuner stroker
Big turbo
Etc etc
Hope you like my project ;)

Augusta f4 and scooby 2 door, perfect garage! Haha

Nice project mate, looks like youve got plenty of nice toys to keep you busy whilst shes getting built.
Whilst i know you were kidding about rolling it. I wouldnt want to roll it woth that roll cage in it. The dog leg that goes round the dash is a major week point. Theres a reason why they dont allow cages with a "dog leg" in competetive motorsport.
I considered this type when i was after one, but afterlooking into it i opted for a safety devices
Not nit picking, just a bit of advice

Joe

P1 8RUV 25 February 2015 07:49 AM

Too busy working to play with my boys toys lol
Yea tbh the cage is only for show, I didn't fancy cutting up my dash to fit a decent one lol thanks for ur input appreciate it you guys know ur stuff a lot more than me ! Cheers

Markfey 03 March 2015 08:11 PM

Lovely car!

Any ideas who did the wide arch kit? It's exactly what i'm looking for as i want to keep my facelift bumper etc and not look like a wannabe 22b. Also, what size wheels and tyres are on there?

scooblet 03 March 2015 09:43 PM

P1 plate on a type R FAIL! Also needs a 22b rear spoiler and bumper!!! Love you long time

P1 8RUV 04 March 2015 09:32 PM

Scoobybits in Truro fitted the kit to it. Funny u should say that I've bought a 22b bumper now as the standard one isn't wide enough and looks crap as it doesn't line up with the wings. Plate was the closest thing I could get to my car at the time lol give me £400 and I'll get a 22b rear bumper ;)

Up until lastnight the owner had kept it off the forums/social media sites so I can only guess things are not going his way so he has decided to speak out.

I'm totally amazed at the amount of Rogues that are housed within the Subaru community we have mappers, garages/tuners, breakers and also owners ripping each other off.
