In the pics he has a top mount but he says it has front mount (front mount cooling system)

Still A lot of money been spent on her. No mention of torque or dyno tho so probably a made up figure like so many others on ebay .

Front mounted cooling system, AKA cold air intake lol !

The carbon parts have reduced the weight of the car by almost 200kg
Have they bollox !

Nice to to a bastidised newage for a change to all the chaved up classics.

have to agree 53wrx slight exacduration (SP) 200kgs is a little OTT,

Considering he still has standard interior.

MMMMM lol

Still 460 bhp is a good figure on standard injectors, fuel pump

But the carbon Fibre covers has added 60bhp to that lol

good luck with the sale

THAT rear spoiler

Anyone else think that TMIC does not look OEM? BTW thought they were good for 450 ish?

Lovin' the 'gold dust' short shifter - improving performance?? Perhaps he means short ratio.......oh no, hang on, top speed 189 mph. Hmmm

dont know what made me laugh the most,maybe it was the superchipped computer or maybe it was the racing com rods or it could have been the very rare short shift 6 speed gearbox.didnt think they even made a short shift gearbox,i always thought it was the gearstick that was the short shift.

looks like the top mount has a mesh fitted to it,that might give it an extra 200bhp.
