does a 1994/L import WRX wagon have?
seen one that looks pretty interesting if the price is right Cheers, James |
220 PS on 100 RON would be my best guess (215 bhp).

Mines a my95 WRX and has the 240 bhp engine fitted !! Get your chassis number & check it with the FAQ's on SIDC
Cheers |
Cheers guys, I thought it was one or the other cos between MY93 and MY94 it went from 220 to 240 didn't it?
I'm prob wrong :) James |
220 ps / 217bph
280Nm / 206lb ft |
what price james?
as uk cars cheper to insure and v easy to tune 2 circ 300bhp! ads |
Depending on what my local garage are wanting to with it I could snap it up for around 3.5k! it has 75K miles on the clock, noisy zorst and 18" rims. Looks very tidy
hell of a difference to my insurance though. A uk scoob is about £850 for me to insure, JDM is about £1100 [Edited by little_idiot - 1/13/2004 8:22:52 AM] |
little....jap cars are better spec'd no doubt!
why not get a nice cheap well looked after uk car for yer 1st scoob .then maybe after a year or 2 see about a jap car then when hopefully yer insurance will be a lot better? just a thought.. i run a uk wagon(due to child seat/buggy etc) and its running about 300bhp! ads |
It's the improved spec that attracts me, and the price. considering I was initially planning on spending 7-8k on a UK car this seems like a bargain. I know that the mechanics at the garage have been giving it a good go-over and apparently it's top notch and very rapid.
Problem with insurance is that I don't think I will see any major drop until I hit 30, I'm 25 now with full no claims so there ain't much that I can do to get a better deal. Plus I'm a sucker for the extra gadgets that you get :) James |
well just get a scooby-you'll enjoy it!!
if its cheaper than you where expecting it to pay..maybe get it inspected properly ? ads |
Inspection sounds like a good idea and thanks very much for the advice.
I'm sure I will enjoy it, I've wanted one since I was about 15 :) |
no probs....hope it goes well!
last thought try and find if theres a good scooby specialst in yer area(maybe post a thread in northern section?) coz you can get it checked by someone who nows a good/bad scooby...1st time you drive a scooby..you'll want it...even if its a bag a cr@p lol ads |
Cheers, I shall go an do that!

James,
Replied to your thread in Northern Section Martin Tyne Tees Scoobies |
Try Liverpool Victoria for insurance, i am 26, 6 years no claims and am paying £850.
I have a MY 95 WRX (import) [Edited by Benno - 1/13/2004 12:49:57 PM] |
Cheers for the tip Benno I shall give them a try

Ask them about reducing your premium by increasing your excess, can't remember the details but basically you pay £150 less on your premium but your excess is increased by £150. It is a calculated risk, as long as you don't crash more than once a year you will not lose any money. :D

I run a 95WRX wagon which I've had for 3 years now.
It is a great car and the performance with decat exhaust/scoobyecu always makes you smile. However I would say to you that insurance, parts and servicing would be cheaper and less hassle free with a UK car. If you are willing to put up with this then buy the import car. Certainly you can pick up imports with better spec and lower prices but if I was tyo buy another scoob, I think I would go for a UK car! |
Mal, I am thinking about doing the same mods to mine, do you know what sort of bhp you are now running with your mods??
