JDM Impreza WRX STI Spec C Motorsport Edition 16"
Hello to everyone!
Here my "new" little Impreza Spec C. Bought it 2 weeks ago and now in Italy with me. She have very low miles, only 26.000, and totally standard apart 17" alloy wheels, Apexi boost meter and an STI Genome front strut bar. Presented in original white, spoilerless, WRX brakes, N/A Sport seats, but with Air Conditioning and 4 speakers radio. Used mostly on the road in Japan, with all the stamps on the service book. I have only the advert images because here in Padova it's raining all days from when I came home and I can't wash her and make some good photos. Want to memake the first update tomorrow when I receive the first package from Germany :D Stay tuned! https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.sco...b2b99345c7.jpg https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.sco...d335adf329.jpg https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.sco...650bbc3cbb.jpg https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.sco...3048af15aa.jpg https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.sco...37760c0d62.jpg Spec C engine bay https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.sco...40913b1084.jpg |
It's about time someone bought that one. Won't take much to turn that into a great car :thumb:

Very cool car, what are your plans for it?
|
Make some little modification ad enjoy it..and in few years restore it to the best as I can and keep for many years. Next week will receive Bilstein B14, Inox Car back box, 18" OZ superleggera alloy wheels and 355mm disc with AP Racing 6 pot front brakes!
|
Great car! Makes my MY07 17" Spec C look almost luxurious. :D
|
And now the back box is installed, a bit more sound, but nothing compared to the ones that you can put without police problem in UK.
Here when I bought it last week https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.sco...5b7948ec8e.jpg And then afer some hours of polishing https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.sco...867b5e6d23.jpg https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.sco...49a9c9c17c.jpg Now it's raining, but next days I'll make some photos and a little video of the sound |

Yesterday I made a little mod to level out the lights between the cluster, the radio and the HVAC control
They are just 2 led (T5) to change, easy mod but I prefer all red! https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.sco...7c0e7fec31.jpg https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.sco...136a045edb.jpg |
Awesome bit of kit! Do like these 16" base spec cars. :thumb:

Some new upgrade to my topic
I've changed the stainless steel shims and the screws for the back Brembo caliper https://oi67.tinypic.com/16qx6a.jpg and a new seal kit from brembo/subaru https://oi63.tinypic.com/167sg7s.jpg After rebuild the calipers was painted in the same red of the fron AP Racing and this is the result https://oi65.tinypic.com/28ahj03.jpg And here the front 355mm BBK from AP Racing https://oi66.tinypic.com/ndlkj4.jpg also a 2.5” stainless steel exhaust centre section https://oi65.tinypic.com/20f9fs2.jpg and a quaife modified gearknob [wink] https://oi63.tinypic.com/k2eewy.jpg |
Today I was thinking about the weigh of my car, so I went to the nearest weigh house and here the bill, 1340 kg
https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.sco...fe7c697357.jpg With: - about 20 liters of fuel (circa 14 kg) - full intercooler water tank (other 11 kg circa) - full wiper washer bottle (other 2 KG) - space saver wheel with crick (other 18 kg I've read here) This mean the weight will be about 1295 kg..not bad, but I can make something better in the future. |

Coming along well. What else is planned?
