Still for sale?
Does it come with air con (can't quite tell from the photos)

Easy to insure?
What's the uprate ECU, is it mapped for UK fuel, who did the mapping

Any probs with it so far?

Yes car is still for sale due to a couple of time wasters,Car has air con. Depends on your age as to how easy i will be to insure ( Im 27 and had no problems.)
The honest answer about the ecu is i dont know who mapped it as the dealer had it done for me but it is mapped for running Shell optimax fuel, 98 min octane.
Ive had car a year now and have had no problems what so ever. ( Best car ive had.)

Sorry to disapoint guys, but I've already read that and several others.
Probably go for a panel filter at the weekend and then go from there

Will a ScoobyECU fit?

I am, been waiting ages for one. Had to save the money and then wait for the right one, now I've got to sell the old WRX, but no real rush (don't want to miss any driving time at the mo.)

If you don't mind me asking how much did this go for in the end?

Looking at getting one of these myself and the ones that are about don't seem to hang around long, just wondered what kind of money they go for?

Thanks

I paid the asking price, this car is in showroom condition and there's no point in messing about

Japanese Domestic Market - otherwise known as 'a proper one', fundamentally a better engine and turbo
