Breaking MY00 UK Turbo Wagon - Good Engine & Gearbox (Scottish Borders)
Bit of a long shot this but if anyone wants to pick up a MY00 UK Turbo engine & gearbox from the Scottish borders (near Kelso) sometime 4th – 6th June please read on:
I am breaking my blue UK turbo wagon on/around these dates and anything I don’t want/need will be getting scrapped on Monday 6th June. I will be removing most replaced/uprated parts and either fitting to my STI or selling them. I have no use for the engine or gearbox and thus am willing to offer them up to anyone under two possible scenarios: a) For free if you want/can take the whole shell away with you (there will be no wheels or suspension) – tricky! b) You can make me an offer if you want to come and remove engine and/or gearbox on the driveway. I have neither the means nor inclination to do it myself! If you’re in the area and are looking for either of the above (or anything else perhaps) – please let me know. The car has covered 98k miles and the engine/gearbox have no issues (can show service history) although the clutch is slipping. This was a really nice driving car unfortunately killed by rust as is often the case! Other parts that I have no use for (and haven’t already offered to anyone) include the following: - 4” x immaculate gold 16” 5-spoke Subaru wheels with Potenza RE050 tyres (wheels were refurbed a few years ago and the tyres have good life remaining) - Ecutek – licensed ECU (was originally a PPP) - Radiator and hoses (2 years old) - Deautschwerks uprated fuel pump (2 years old) - Suspension top mounts (2 years old) - Original TD04 turbo - Rear callipers (not sticking) - All discs/pads - All seats/interior I realise it’s unlikely much of the above will appeal to anyone but just thought I’d ask the question in case someone local (ish?) happens to want/need anything. Other than the wheels/turbo I am not expecting much for anything – will just end up on eBay or scrapped otherwise. |
will the front/rear arches match a 98 classic? edit: are they rusty? :D
|
When you say rust are we talking just the rear aches? Because 98,000 isn't that much miles.
|
Front arches will fit a 98 car although the NS one has a 5p sized area of damage where it looks like it's been pushed out if that makes sense. You'd be welcome to them for a pittance if you wanted to come and remove them! No rust (at least from what's visible!) PM if interested.
Rear arches, subframe and suspension turrets are rotten - mechanically (other than slipping clutch) the car was sound prior to failing it's MOT! |
Wow i'm shocked thats alot of rust.
My 1999 2.0 sport had 120,000 miles no rust at all, rear arches were mint. |
With hindsight the car spent its first 6 years on a farm and next 6 years by the sea. Looked fine when I bought it (I was a bit naive!) but turned out the rear arches had been filled previously. I used it as a daily and the arches started to rot before my very eyes! :(
I never realised it was anything more than a cosmetic issue so proceeded to spend a fair bit on maintenance and a few performance upgrades. Lesson learned!

I would be interested in your ecu and radiator.
Live not too far away so could pop across any time to see if there's other bits? R |

Hi. I'd be interested in the wheels. Could you put some pics up please, and how much are you looking for them? Thanks

Gutting, well at least you have a new Impreza and haven't left.

Quick bump - for anyone who may want to collect anything this coming weekend. PM me if so.
Thanks |
I'd be interested in 4 pot calipers, if not too late!
|
dam would have took the gearbox and engine if i wasnt away on holiday :-(
|
Do you still have the td04?
|
Sorry for late response. TD04 gone I'm afraid.
The only major bits left are the gold 16" alloys. They're on Gumtree for £200 but will listen to offers. |
