Bought the car last year with the engine out (thrown a piston), the plan was to run it as a everyday car as I already have a highly modded newage.

Car is basically run in and ready to Map on new engine. Car comes with a second backbox (loud one which is direct swap with the Milltek for those that want a bit of noise) a K&N induction kit (not to be fitted until mapped, hence the standard airbox).

I'm sure it's a V3 guys.

It does have DCCD Jden.

Berks-Jack, It's running a standard turbo, so that will be it's limiting factor when Dave gets it mapped.

bonesetter, North Yorkshire and West coast depending where he is at the time, lol.

Can't see the DCCD wheel. Its a V4 Type R V Limited.

These had the roof vent but no DCCD - although it should have ABS. WRX engine and usually the turbo off the STI of that version.

In the UK, I'd want ABS over DCCD.

Lovely looking car.
