Many thanks mate for giving me the stuff.

Did some more noseing about today inside and under the car. The curse of many Classic Impreza's is the inner arch rust, so I removed the boot linings and found this.

The area behind the front right wishbone. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...ps36a80128.jpg Under the drivers seat. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...ps0cac9225.jpg I'll try and get it on the ramps in the Bat Cave and see what needs a bit of Bilt Hamber Hydrate 80 over the next few days. |

The car is in outstanding condition Ian, the inner wing shows just how well it's been looked after.
As I've said before you've bought a real mint car there. :thumb: |
That is clean! What's the mileage again?
|
68,000 kms = 42000 miles.
|
Good find
|
Minter! Had hydrate 80 for my arches good stuff!
|
That looks spot on Ian... awesome find :) looking forward to seeing this !
Agree with keeping it limited and running in KMs, at least you know what she has actually done! My Type R was still running in KMs and never needed the 112mph limiter removed! |
Popped into Three Arches for a chat and to book the car in for a quick health check next week.
But was looking round the car and spotted the exhaust was made by Ti. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...ps57518f1e.jpg Is this the same company? http://lightweightperformancetitaniu...built-exhausts |
Expensive bit of kit!
|
Fitted the LAMCO Gauges today, but I have not wired up the Temp Sender yet, but it's in place.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...ps58fbfe6f.jpg But I had a surprise when I fitted them. I took the gearstick surround off and found this! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...ps1810e135.jpg A Quick shift kit fitted :D. Also fitted some new rubber pedal covers but that's boring. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...ps426d72a1.jpg I have discovered the origin of the exhaust, it's very impressive to say the least. https://www.fujitsubo.co.jp/english/super_ti.html Cheers Jake. |
Very nice.
Make your own parsley tea for the kidney stones, check it out on tinterweb wonder plant.;) |
Looking good Ian and very happy that you got a mint one, can't wait to see it and loving the originality of it all and what plans you got for it

It's a good point your making but there's no harm in putting them in, or are you keeping as original as possible?

Rubbers are better than the clip on metal STi ones IMHO, never liked them :)
|
Looks great Ian... Where did you run the cables through the bulkhead it's job I've got to do here.
|
Looking very nice Ian nice bit of tinkering

Ian, a very nice car and everything I thought it would be from what I've seen from the previous thread pics. OE is the way to go with these getting very rare in this condition, cant wait to see it soon. :thumb: |

Cheers Jay.
To answer Si's question, I have used the Subaru instructions for feeding cables through the bulk head. The boost hose is fitted and the temp sensor cables will follow the same path. Once they are both fitted I can hid it behind the bulk head sound deadening and feed it into the back of the centre console. http://www.type-ra.co.uk/pdf/guages.pdf :thumb: |
