Well, nobody can accuse us of just doing the same old boring cars.
Check this one out, then guess the spec!

Ex quarry transport, so all the fabulous patina is for real.

OK, let's be having some suggestions?

H6 3.0? That would be interesting
Probably more likely to be a 2.5 subaru lump though.

It's quite deliberate, slam the lid on it and it's hard to tell it's got a forged EJ257 in there!
SC46 billet, Deatchwerks injectors and pump, Syvecs ECU etc..
Charge cooler system found wanting so far, so back to the drawing board on that one, but we reckon on 500 bhp when sorted.

Hope they've done something to the brakes - competition shoes in the drums?
Still think the H6 with the auto box would be more in line with the sleeper style.

He's drag racing it, I don't think he cares about the brakes!

If you look closely, you can see the roll cage..

Paul had a bug van with a Impreza engine at Zen last time I was there, don't think it was quite 500HP mind you.
I love the idea of having something that looks nothing but goes like hell.

Should drift it not drag it.

Looks mad but what a waste of money!

Go to your room, find an A3 sheet of paper, and write this out 100 times.
