Finally made the decision to sell my beloved & modified Primera GT (with only 22k on it !).

My brothers, brother in law & a couple few of my friends have had Imprezas for a while so I'm not a real stranger (altho I thought I'd have a username change) but thought it was time to make the next step

I'm picking up a '98 Jap import in DBM thats been in the UK since new & has a full history with 66k & seems a gooden (fingers crossed).

I cant wait to get my hands on my own 280 machine in the morning & join the family(so not much sleep for me tonight lol)

Welcome and now for the advice
She will need super unleaded fuel and octane booster to compensate for our lowly fuel (jap imports are designed to run on 100 ron fuel) and the service intervals are vital for reliability.
Everything else is pretty much down to the owner, the above is the biggest killer of engines though and they are not cheap to replace (i would suggest mods like decent brakes, a knocklink and some gauges though )
