Forged V3 sti, what's it worth please
Regrettably I think i'm going to have to sell my Scoob. I work away most of the time and my missus is due to drop, can't really justify my weekend toy at the moment.
I know the market is crap and won't get what i want but can I have a few thoughts as to what price I should pitch this at please?:
1996 V3 STI (JDM) in 230 WhiteHistory:
This is a late 96 model JDM V3 STI which was imported by Ralliart UK (now Extreme) and has had 5 UK owners before I acquired the vehicle in 09/05/2009
Taxed until: 31/10/2011
Mot until: 17/03/2012
Mileage: Odometer currently shows 114048 and is recording miles now. The first 75,000 of the history are in KM. (Replacement forged engine with 10,000 miles fitted at 107,201)
Engine:
- API built CDB with Wossner pistons, forged rods, ACL bearings.
- Up-rated oil pump
- Up-rated fuel pump (Walbro)
- K&N air filter with RCM spun trumpet and Samco inlet hose.
- 850cc injectors (larger than required for current set up as I had planned on a 6 speed & bigger turbo in the future)
- SX Fuel Pressure Regulator
- TD05-20g (origin unknown, was on the car when I bought it)
- Simtek ECU with ALS and launch control (mapped by Bob Rawle). 1st map runs 1.6bar, 2nd map 1.2 bar and can be used for lower octane fuel although I have only ever used V Power or Momentum.
- API, standard, ported, un-equal length headers (tried equal length but I missed the burble!)
- H&S 3” 100 cell sport cat downpipe (avoids any hassles at MOT time) with full 3” Miltek system
- Autobahn FMIC
Drivetrain:
- Standard 5 speed TY752 (no problems at all)
- AP Racing organic clutch
Suspension:
- Standard STI shocks and springs
- Whiteline anti-lift kit and uprated 22mm rear anti roll bar
- Powerstation fast road/track day geometry set up
Wheels/Tyres:
- Standard blobeye STI wheels refurbed in dark gunmetal (with pearlescent flake)
- Toyo Proxes all round with 6 mm of tread
Brakes:
- Front - AP Racing 4 pot calipers with 2 piece 330mm grooved discs & Ferodo DS2500
pads
- Rear – 2 pot caliper conversion with brand new Godspeed 290mm grooved discs and kevlar pads.
Interior:
Essentially standard except:
- Lockwood white dials
- Carbon effect trim around the controls, console, vents.
- Kenwood KDC 241SG CD head unit (ipod input)
- Lamco boost gauge on the top of steering column.
The interior is immaculate (no rips or tears in any of the seats)
Bodywork:
MINT! Totally standard, other than the wheels. Just had rear arches done, new splitter, colour coded skirts, car park dents sorted. (Thanks very much to Prodrive rules!)
Security:
Autowatch 160RLI Thatcham Category 1 alarm & immobilizer
I have extensive folder of all UK history, receipts and MOT’s. I/ve spent over 10K on it.
Private plate: *** WRX included in the sale.
I've not had it dynoed in its current spec but I would estimate it to be 350-360bhp (which is the limit of the current gearbox).
Bad Bits:
- Currently only 1 working key fob for the alarm but I am ordering a replacement.
- The engine is quite noisy from cold due to piston slap, however once warm its sweet.
I know some good photos will help but I am working away at the moment. Here is an old one with my track wheels and pre-colour coded the skirts/splitter.
Breaking is not an option for me!
Thanks for any advice.

I also own a STI3 and couldn't dream of selling it as a whole. Mine is slightly better speced than yours but not massively different.
You've got some nice mods there chap, you've really either gotta keep her or break it up. It's sad but that's just how it is at the minute

thats a nice car mate
know what you mean to break
but really it just seems there worth pennies now
only way to getting more is breaking.
like said id keep it - sorn and store away somewhere, until better cash flow times.

Would be a pleasure to do them Matt,the turn around time would depend on just how bad they are ie need some fresh metal putting in or just surface rust.
I usually like the prep to be my own due to the fact a good paint job is all in the prep but I would happy for you to do it if you want to save some money,Obviously there's no offence intended about the prep
Ive got a courtesy car you can use for running about in if needs be too mate
