Oops I did it again.....................
Yes, I have bought yet another Impreza !
Following the untimely demise of my '53' plate STi, I did what any sensible person with my track record for destroying Subarus would do !
Purchased another one !
This example is a 2004 '54' STi Type UK (widetrack) in crystal grey.
Done 60k with full history, had a PPP at 1,500 miles and then Ecutec last year, 18" PFF7 replicas in gloss black with new T1 R's, set of three Defi gauges, etc.
Had cambelt 15k ago so should be fine for a while, recent DS2500 pads and a nice Kenwood head unit with Bluetooth.
Picked it up today and love it already !
Spoken to SW Performance who carried out the remap and got the figures from them, 330/330 which seems about right.
The garage selling the car had put 390BHP on the advert but I knew this was bulls*** on a VF35 with only minor mods.
Now to decide whether I fit the AF TD05 20G, 650 injectors, full 3" system, FMIC, 3 port solenoid, FPR and parallel fuel rails that I removed from my famous (or infamous ?) WRX ?
I am also considering whether to replace the big STi spoiler with the JDM STi Ltd one that I bought, it will need a respray so do I get it done to match or gloss black to match the wheels ?
Decisions, decisions.........................

I don't know how to upload pics !
I can barely operate my antique Nokia let alone f*** about uploading things to the interwebnet.
My WRX has had more engines than Britney has had p***ks, the '53' STi came to a sticky end in January on some black ice (currently being broken for bits by Cams in Darwen)
I only posted to let people know that I had not gone and bought a Focus ST !
