Default MY04 STi TYPE U.K. ( TSL 333 )

Hi folks, thought i would post a wee advert for my toy incase anyone is interested. Looking to sell to fund a proposed business expantion, car details as follows,

FIRST REGISTERED APRIL 2004
WORLD RALLY BLUE
NEARLY 12k MILES
ONE OWNER/DRIVER SINCE NEW
F.S.S.H & TAXED
TSL 333 CONVERSION CARRIED OUT
PRODRIVE SPRINGS
UPGRADED 18" ALLOYS ( ORIGINAL 17"s AVAILABLE )
TSL FAST ROAD GEOMETRY SET UP







the car is absolutely immaculate inside & out, it is a second car,hence why i call it my toy .

i know it is a buyers market currently, but i think it is excellent value for money.

i am looking for sensible offers circa £18650

finance can be arranged, fairly favourable rates

any thoughts/ opinions very welcome

Very fair price. Dont think you will have much trouble if people know what the 333 conversion is.

Maybe a good idea to elaborate on the exact mods involved.

Fair point hol, for those that don`t know of The TSL 333 conversion. It is perhaps one of the best-known performance conversions. The package comprises TSL ECU remap (using ECUTEK software) unlike prodrive each car gets a bespoke remap, complete 76mm pulse-extraction 304 stainless steel exhaust system including high flow sports catalyst (fully road legal), uprated fuel pump, TSL Green high flow panel filter.


Rated by EVO Magazine in June 2004 as "the best balance of performance and price" of all the comparable conversions available, this takes the STi VIII to 330 BHP at 6100 rpm giving 330 lb/ft torque @ 3600 rpm (using Optimax fuel).

EVO Magazine, June 04
“TSL Motorsport’s 333 kit offers the best balance of performance and price” “Extra power is instantly noticeable over the PPP and …… it feels the most driveable” “Here’s an engine that combines smooth low-down power with a dizzying top-end rush” “Overall a convincing package” “The TSL 333 just has the edge in terms of driveability … and is the one to go for.”

Hate to hijack your post but how much did you guys pay for the 333?

I have an MY04 STI with PPP, would it be worthwhile looking at the 333?

Cheers

Nice car by the way and bttt

The cost of the 333 is really on a par with ppp as far as i`m aware, i had a geometry set up done at the same time so my bill would be slightly different. With regard to whether or not they could look at a ppp car with the view of tuning further i have no idea but i am quite certain that there will be people here that have an answer for you.

Cheers

Rob, sorry mate i`m not really looking for a p.x. i am trying to sell to fund a refit of my butchers shop, and with the quotes i`m getting for the work i`m afraid i`ve got to look at the possibility of selling my car, very very unwillingly but many thanks for your interest.

what has distance got to do with enything?

I hate it when ppl say that....."if only you was closer"

If you really wanted the car i am sure you'd be prepeared to travel abit of distance.

I think that the " distance " thing is possibly putting a few potential buyers off, but at the end of the day if someone who is seriously looking for a car like this wanted to view it then i would do my very best to make it available for viewing somewhere convienent for everyone involved, and without sounding funny i firmly believe that this car is worth covering a few miles to view. i may be bias of course

cheers.

Easy said, at the end of the day it might take a couple of trips , to view, sort money, pick the car up, i doubt anyone would carry £18000 in cash and buy a car at first look also if you use anyother method than cash the seller will want the funds to clear and that can take up to five days.

Thats a fair point trooper, but it can work, my mate travelled to London to view an evo because the car was exactly what he was looking for, he bought it and yes it took about a week to get all the necessary done and he had to go back to get it, we thought he was mad because he could have got one up here but the car is an absolute gem. I think the problem is that they are just moving very slowly just now coupled to the fact that only a small amount of people actually buy these type of cars, simply looking at the choice available on S.N. its definately a buyers market currently and at the end of the day i think that it just takes a little longer to sort things out when buying a car that costs nearly 20k


cheers

i agree with you and your scoob really does look worth traveling for, so i did do a route map just to see how far? and it was, 480 miles each way! i live in dorset so to be honest couldn,t be further away which is a pity, hence my comment saying i wish you were closer. I really do hope you have some luck selling, cos your scoob looks like its worth every penny your asking.

cheers

Do what i did. Take the seller to your bank, pay £25 for same day bank transfer, go to the pub, have lunch with him (he paid). Ring his bank, check money is in then do the paperwork.
drive home

Enjoy. Free BTT anyway
