Default Car coming off the road early for the winter :(

Unfortunately having to take my 2005 blob sti off the road early for the winter due to lack of funds .....
Firstly the clutch is going and running more than 400lbs a new one ain't going to be cheap but on Monday my slip joint headers decided to come apart where they join.. Not big deal.. So lined them up, marked them and decided to get them welded.. Bad Idea, even tho marked them took them to welder cam back and he had done them wrong so no longer fit...
So now looking at possible
New clutch and flywheel
New disks and pads all round-- day at donnington
And now some possible new headers so time to start saving again and take it off the road I think

Bad times Ryan. On the flip side it'll be spot on when it sees the road again

Headers are Williams Motorsport ones mate weren't the best fit tbh and the welds on the up pipe all split..
How much you want for headers and clutch?
