2008 HATCH JDM 2LITRE TURBO ENGINE IMPORTED IT MYSELF DIRECT FROM JAPAN VERY HAPPY

 

Mmmm, how much is it to to buy and get it on the road here?

First mod; rear light de-chav. Other than that its what the UK hatch should have been.

I keep toying with the idea of bringing one over (hatch is more suitable to my needs these days), but I'm an idle git at the best of times.

 

im in ireland the car was 10413 euros at auction including the shipping the excise stamp duty 10% and vat 23 percent plus clearing agent 120.00 freight company 90.00 to drive car off boat 150.00 to deliver it to my house car is standing 14400 euro i still have to pay vehicle reg taxc which will be 3-6k noone can tell me yet

the car is stunning very quick very happy i have a full exhaust ind kit hks actuator plugs and hks fmic APEXI AVCR AND WALBRO pump to go on with service + belt and then a remap with ecutek software i have been busy when car was in transit have a very specific plan for what i wanted with it see how it goes

 

Nice ! I`m just waiting for something similar. People don`t realise what good value these are at the moment, from Japan. Keep us informed.

 

How many kms, and what grade was it, if you don`t mind me asking ?

 

mean machine

 

lovley

 

it has 138000 kilometers and was a grade 4 , for the same money = evo 7 i thought it was a bargin a 2008 vehicle as well it was a no brainer loving it my first scoob no flat four burble off it which was kinda weird but i dont mind beautiful to drive steering is like a go kart very responsive will take awhile to get used to it i think

 

Great work! Keep us updated with the total price as there are a lot of us wanting to do the same.

 

Nice car and the best engine too

Mick

 

Great car but id leave the boost controller off it the car,can have a few maps done on it so can have a few different boost levels that the ecu controls safely.

 

 

Nice car mate how does it drive? Mine will be here the end of January I've bought a 2008 white STi.

 

I think the flat four rumble goes when you have unequal length headers and a twin scroll turbo.

Tom

 

Equal length looses the burble

 

it's beautiful to drive bit of lag then turbo kicks in and it eats the gears the quick rack is super responsive and the suspension is firm zero body roll should be interesting when i fit the stuff with hks fmic in awaiting from japan via sumo power then a trip in the new year for a remap to
indigo gt is in order
