MY CLASSIC STI ON ITS WAY FROM JAPAN!!
 
bought my second impreza 2 weeks ago through sc imports who i cant recommend enough. sold my uk turbo last year and had been on the look out for a mint classic sti and was put in touch with stewart who owns sc imports who gave me the auction links to japan to find the car i was after which is then inspected by his staff in japan before bidding is made on the car, they only pick the very best cars and this car is a grade 4 on the auction sheet with a genuine 40k on the clock and totally standard bar a turbo timer. it is currently on the slow boat from japan and should arrive in 5 weeks and i cant wait, will be fitting a full decat exhaust and an apexi ecu which will be mapped by andy f who is 5 mins down the road from me. anyway hope you like. http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i182/yeecup/front.jpg http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i182/yeecup/Rear2.jpg http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i182/yeecup/Rear.jpg http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i182/yeecup/Boot.jpg http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i1...p/LeftSide.jpg http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i1...ntInterior.jpg http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i1...cup/Front1.jpg http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i1...ntInterior.jpg http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i1...arInterior.jpg

I hope for your sake they dont use the ESVA on it for registering or you will be another member of the £400 a year road tax club :D

Very nice mate, that looks spotless! :thumb:

mr hat 17 April 2008 05:08 PM

as far as im aware 1996 cars dont come under the 400 tax band

spoiltboy 17 April 2008 05:09 PM

hope you r takeing the blue spotlights of the front mate just a :idea:
looks spot on

mr hat 17 April 2008 05:22 PM

yeah will be taking the blue spots off and what looks like a prodrive sticker off the front splitter, colour code the side skirts and rear skirts and will be getting a set of sti flaps from scott lowe in black, keeping it looking standard and mint, andy f tells me with full decat and apexi ecu mapped it will run 330-340bhp which is plenty in a classic.

will be ordering jeffs stuff from polished bliss to get it polished up as soon as i get it, will post up more pics once it arrives and get the bits fitted im ordering, think im getting the racebox backbox from scoobyworld and full afterburner decat sounds really nice on their website.

looks very nice, almost like my old sti, I find AutoTerminal - Worldwide distributor of used Japanese vehicles very good

That certainly looks mint! :thumb: I'm looking to import a mint Sti next. Are SC Imports a fairly big company? Where are they based?

based in glasgow, think they are a fairly new company but have an excellent reputation over on sidc where they have sourced several mint imprezas for members. do a search on sidc and you will see some of the pics of cars they have sourced. i can pm you more info and contact details if you want.
