Default STI Parts ?

looking at another uk turbo, the guy has owned it 2 mths, he took in part ex for his evo but says fuel economy is too bad, it does have a dump valve, possible reason for bad economy, how easy is it to put the standard re-circ stuff on, oo, i sound like i knwo what im on about LOL, anyhoo, he says the previous owner, his mate, hmm, had a mate hwo owned an sti who writ it off, so this guy put some sti parts on this one, strut brace amongst some he can see, but he said it has the rear diff of an sti, how will this make the car, better, worse, good idea etc ??????

other points, the guy removed the air bag module to fit his dvd player in centre dash, the lite is on, naturally,but he said the guy put the module back in to prove lite went off, the current owner hasnt put it back in as he doesnt want to mess it up/**** it up anyhow ?!?!

hmmm maybe ?!?!?

no work done to engine, history wise, no gearbox rebuilt/no engine rebuilds, it has 120k,it has had an excedia <sp> race clutch put on about month ago.

it has an internal boost controller,555 No/plate,

i hate buying these cars, so much to look into !!!!!!!!!!

forget it..........

why not continue to look for a nice clean example without any silly, unusual or unnecessary modifications. they are around, but bide your time and pick the right one. you will know it is right when you dont have to come on s/n asking for opinions. patience

well believe it or not, that is pretty rare !!
i dont mind body styling, prefer it, dont want to pay near £4500 for a bog standard one, would rather the spoiler, color coding,crystals etc have all been done, standard engine i swhat i want, but minor stuff i dont mind, can always revert back !!

so, why put an sti diff on, anyone ?!?!?
and the iar bag module, sound cool, anyone put a dvd player in and had to remove air bag module, or is it phucked ?

cheers.....
