you've traveled around for your servicing

 

Good luck with the sale mate

 

WOW, new pictures look awesome

Good luck with the sale, genuinely love this car.

 

btt

 

Knew this car when it belonged to the previous owner... very clean car and fast!

Got a gold flek in the paint which looks awsome in the sun!

 

 

Do use still use the blackfire on it that ~DrEaM~ used to ? Fantastic depth to your wetlook !

 

Currently using Maguires range of cleaners, polishes etc...really easy to apply and remove and the results are

 

Was over at Pennine Subaru today to give the car a once over - road testing - ECU check, det, knock, fuel, air, etc.

Real great bunch of guys up at Pennine, really helpfull and spend time with the customer. Rocket engine go kart conversions and 500bhp engine builds are a daily thing alongside the in house manufacture of pistons, rods, flywheels etc.

Anyway the verdict "car is running sweet as a nut"

 

nuts are salty not sweet so does that mean its not running very well??

jus joking with yer geezer, gorgeous sti tha, you can tell you've taken good care of her.

 

Looks stunning mate!

Those new pictures really do help, and good write up too!!!

Someone is going to get a really good car, only wish I never sold it in the first place, it really does break my heart to see it polished up looking mint in those pictures and I dont own it no more!!!!!

Good luck with the sale!!!!!

 

Thanks buddy, after the recent health check and being told by the staff at Pennine how well the car has been looked after and how good its running, it hurts me even more to sell it....it really is the best most reliable car i have ever owned.

It's just a matter of time before someone takes it but deep down inside I'm wishing no one takes her right up untill I leave for the middle east, that way I get to keep her for a little longer.

 

Just seen this on Ebay you have a pm.
Nice looking motor.

 

Just watched video and noticed seats dont look to have STi logo on them, was that a interior choice of previous owners. They look the same as my WRX Euro import seats.

 

Sorry for being
Just realised it a WRX with a lot of STi mods on.

 

PM'd and a free bump for a gorgeous car.

 

nice car mate, Mint condition

Has it really got 390NM TORQUE? I doubt it

can you post up your dyno printout,i would like to see it

 

 

Numptie.

390nm is 287lbft - get your units right

 

yes i was thinking in lbs, not used to seeing it expressed in NM.makes it look more impressive i suppose.
Thanks for posting the dyno
good luck with the sale

Lovely motor mate. Wish I had the readies!

 

i have to say, "THATS ONE SMART LOOKING MOTOR"
I'm offering one of my Kidneys and a left knacker???
