Exclamation

Yes, the BlackBeast is possible going to be sold, well, maybe. I'm really just curious to see if there is any interest, but it might be up for sale within the next couple of months.

Here's the spec:

Car Details
Car: 1994 Subaru Impreza WRX Wagon
Jap Import: Yes
Modified: Yes (see below)

Modifications
Engine and exhaust
Forge vent to atmosphere dump valve
HKS Super Power Flow (Green Mushroom) induction kit
BPM Twindump downpipe
Blitz Nur Spec R (center section and backbox)
ScoobyECU remap.
Helix clutch

Wheels, Brakes and Suspension
Movit 4m6 front brake kit (calipers and pads from Porsche 911 GT3, discs from latest generation 911 turbo)
Powerstation Bumpsteer Modification
Whiteline Automotive fron Anti-lift kit
Cusco/STi competition front strut brace
Cusco Power Brake Support Bracket
MY01 17 inch wheels
Bridgestone Potenza Damper for Street Limited Edition loweered suspension

Exterior
smoked side and front indicators (from TSL)
Morette Quad headlamp conversion
2 mini bonnet scoops (by Stuart Knight)

Interior - not sure if these 'count' to insurance companies or not
Momo leather gearknob
Greddy Turbo Timer
Greddy A-pillar pod with HKS Boost Gauge
Clarion ARX8570Rz head unit and CDC655z 6 CD changer
Ripex Battery Checker and cigar lighter socket expander
Mini neon lights
salsa-king stickers


I also have:

original Airbox
original suspension (contained in the bridgestone suspension boxes)
original downpipe
Subaru Dog guard
original orange side indicators and front indicators


Price: £ offers (think of £7000 as a starting point)


Now, before anyone replies. I do NOT want any stupid comments like "it's not worth that much, my mates gran can get a similar car for 5 pence" I would appreciate only constructive comments, preferably by email (see my profile). Any stupid comments WILL be reported to the mods, as some may know, I'm not a tollerant guy!

You should note that this is not the most tidy car in the world, yes, the bonnet is still dented, and there may be a few other problems, but I will discuss by email, and I know this would effect the potential sale of the car.

Anyway, I might not sell it, who knows!

** Edit ***
Just so you know, a brand new set of Pads were put in this morning (21/01/2003). old pads still have a lot of life in them, so you will have a nice set of pads, possibly for trackday use, or just as an emmergency pair.

Should also add that I do have the full, hardly used, Wax Wizzard/Swissol Shield Wax kit, which I'll prob sell with the car.

Also have a set of 16 inch wheels as well, which I might throw in. Note they won't fit the car, due to the huge calipers

Carl - lol! dunno, not looking into it. I know it won't get into the USA, so I doubt the Canadians would let it in either, plus when I can get a brand new WRX out there for approx £14k, and prob the new STi for about £20k , I think I know what to do!

Paul - cheeky, but true!

Paul - ok, first refusal of the wax goes to you.

Stuart - cheeky sod! I won't be putting it back to standard, why? well, a) I don't have the 2-pots or discs, the original lights, and prob other bits I'm forgetting! b) I can't be bothered.

Neil - Possible move to Canada (hence Carl's comment) within the next few months, lots of talking to be done between me, Jenny, and the company, but I'll let everyone know the score when things are sorted.

Andy - yup, a nice road indeed, when it's not covered in black ice, then it's very

Not a silly question at all, but won't be breaking the car, will sell it complete.

Seems to be not a lot of interest, so looks like I might have to keep the car for a little while.

Shame to see this car go Marcus, never seen another like it and I can vouch it has been well cared for and not abused like some. You must have had it a few years now.

The brakes alone were £1700 werent they ??

BTT for a good car.

Thanks for all the nice words chaps.

Jase - yup, brakes were 1700 quid, and it has, despite the odd knock, been very well cared for, ok it's not cleaned that often. Will be sad to see it go, but it has to go.

As for the swap, sorry mate but no thanks, not that I don't like your car, it seems rather nice, just I don't need the scoob, and in the short term, would just need a little runaround.

Quite a bit of space acutally. I'm a 6ft 4 chappie and I could lay down in the back, if the front seats are pushed forward.

reading the above mate it sounds like you have had some experience/adventures in the back of the beast

Does it come with mattress? Have you got mirrors on the roof?

LOL, Bryan
