>>>>>US STI 2.5 LITRE 20G TURBO'D CLASSIC<<<<
£9,800 OVNO!!!
The time has come to sell the best Impreza i've ever owned!
Debt has grown and i have to cut my losses and sell her.
It's a model year 99/00 and was bought new on 03/10/2000 and it's a Belgium import. It's in Royal Silver and has 1 previous owner, known as John Banks, who i'm sure you'll all know, from Scoobynet and 22B.com. Current mileage is just under 64k and it's on an X plate. It has a full sevice history and will get a new oil filter and oil(Millers 10W60) very soon.
I acquired the car, from John Banks on 14/11/05, needing head gaskets done. I took on the job and in January, got the car back on the road, when it got MOT'd.
The car has been mapped by Rob Gallagher(Tweenierob) and pulls a max boost of 1.48 bar and drops to 1.2 bar at about 5500 revs. I can't stress enough how much of an awesome package this really is. Ask anyone who has driven a 2.5 litre, with a 20G and they will all say the same....it's the best set-up you could ask for, without going silly. 350bhp and 350lbsft of torque is easily acheived with this set-up, so it should be confortable higher than that.
While i fitted the head gaskets, i replaced the pistons with some brand new STi pistons, purely as the offer for them was there. Thanks again Rob.
I've spent so much time and effort on this car, that it breaks my heart to sell it and as Nigel(Beario) pointed out at the weekend, "You only live once!", i'm afraid, that money rules, when you have too much going out every month, than coming in.
I was intending on asking for about 11k for the car, or there-abouts, but 3rd and 5th gear syncros are on their way out, so i'll take a figure below that quoted above(syncros can cost under £20 each, depending on what's needed). I could still get the box sorted at the moment myself, but i thought i'd offer it this way, as it's still works fine and money is tight. The front splitter needs a respray due to stone chips, which i will get done, but the bodywork is close to immaculate for a 6 year old car. Interior, however, IS immaculate.
I wish for anyone to get in contact me, only if they are genuinly interested and i will ask any questions i can, but if there is anything i CAN'T answer about the car, i'm sure John will be happy to help. I WILL consider a part exchange, but only on an early WRX, up to the value of 3k. I'd prefer a WRX Wagon in black, if anyone has one???

After this, i'll start by removing the Defi's and lower the asking price.[/QUOTE
Coming round to the idea of keepng mine, as I just can't justify selling it for any less, so if you do take out the defi's give us first refusal. Thanks

Iknow, but at the moment, i don't have the money to fix it and i'd end up putting the price up higher, so it sort of cancels it out.
I use the car everyday, with NO troubles with the gearbox. You could buy the car and not have to do the gearbox till you sell it, as the syncros really aren't that bad.
