Probably missed some bits but you get the idea so what do you think? Ideally I'd hate to break as I know how much time and effort I've put into this although I know I probably wouldt get a buyer who would give me what I want

Your thoughts?

really like that mate far to nice to break imo

Cheers mate I know it'll kill me but then I don't think I could accept silly money for it either given the mods and time it's took. Another route could be a engine up grade change the 5 speed box to a 6 and more power although I'd be throwing even more money at it lol

nice car mate shame to break but prob more money in it breaking it going off todays prices
will be interested in the bc coilovers and the hella horns

M2RTXhawkeye

iTrader: (61)

Haha no worries mate. Unfortunately today's prices arnt the best and not many people want to pay over the odds so your probably right

Agree it would be such a shame to break. If you still have all the standard parts, the easy swop over stuff, wheels, suspension, exhaust, interior etc. You would make more money selling it as a standard car and selling all the uorated stuff separate, including the defi's etc there looks like a good few grand in parts.

M2RTXhawkeye

iTrader: (61)

That's an idea didt keep much of the standard parts but sure most could be picked up pretty cheap anyway. Thanks for your advice

Cheers

dont break it fella, you have put so much work to get it looking like that and its a credit to your modding taste.

rather than break it maybe fit an sti gearbox and engine and carry on with the mods.

the car is far too good to break

M2RTXhawkeye

Appreciate the comments guys. Tommy having a serious think and after seeing jeffs widetrack blob it got me thinking. To drop the Sti gear box and engine will be a few grand yet I'd prob get close to 5k for breaking the bug then would cost me a couple of grand to find myself a clean blob Sti maybe. Mrs is talking me out of it lol she don't want the hassle haha

Cheers

jeffs car does look great, but its a shame to break your bug after the work you have done to it.

Not sure there's 5 grand there to be honest buddy.
Looks bloody nice, love these in black.

tubbytommy

iTrader: (20)

yes i agree, i think you would be lucky to see that,the reason people break the newage stis is because the gearbox,brembos and engines are worth a fair bit, you dont have these so your just selling body parts really,which arent worth as much.

M2RTXhawkeye

iTrader: (61)

I know what you mean mate. Hind sights a beautiful thing hey if only..... Keep telling myself should of bought a Sti to begin with lol

Martin

M2RTXhawkeye

iTrader: (61)

What do you think 4k? Maybe?

Martin

tubbytommy

iTrader: (20)

lol been there done that, if it helps once you get an sti you carry on spending the cash on modding

tubbytommy

iTrader: (20)

its hard to say once you sell the exhaust,defis, coilovers and interior and possibly the front bumper and spoiler the rest isnt really sought after.

M2RTXhawkeye

iTrader: (61)

Haha but all worth it on a Sti though tommy. When I bought this car I knew nothing about subarus. Dumb as it sounds but thought they were all the same lol little did I know I bought the bottom range impreza and there was an Sti, ppp, jdm etc etc

Martin

Suppose I could just advertise it in the for sale section for 4.5k see what interest I get 😉 done a rough pricing on parts if it was to be broke maybe a little pricey see what you think

Martin

iTrader: (24)

if you do happen to break as stated interested in the coilovers i will if needed do a exchange with my sti7 suspension if you havent got original to put back on

tubbytommy

iTrader: (20)

it does look really good but the mileage may be against you a bit,i think 4.5k is a little high, 3.5k would be nearer the mark.

its sad but thats the going rate nowadays

are these the selling price for the parts or what you paid??
either way very fairly priced tbh

bcs i will have them how old are they

oh and the horns lol

M2RTXhawkeye

iTrader: (61)

This was just a rough parts price I drafted up of it were to be broke this is how much I'd want for the parts. Paid a lot more for all this lot 😢

M2RTXhawkeye

iTrader: (61)

Lol I'm Un decided yet mate but this is generally speaking if the car was to be broke. Not added parts like the bumpers doors bonnet boot etc etc so could be more really.

parts are priced fairly though, if the roof vane is genuine id up the price i paid a lot more for mine and they are pretty rare.
