1997 P-Reg Subaru Impreza UK Turbo

I have been putting this off for a long time, but have finally decided to sell on my Impreza.
I have had it just over three and a half years and taken it from standard to where it is today.
I have spent loads on it since I bought it.
Service info
I bought it on 103,000 miles and it is now on 141,477 miles. This may change slightly as I drive it every now and then.
It had it's MOT in April and passed with no advisories. It is taxed till November this year.

I only have a partial history since I have had the car,
The last oil and filter change was on it's MOT day 11.4.12 at 141,231 miles
The cambelt was done on 11.11.09 at 118,841 miles
I had a Walbro fuel pump fitted at Subaru for you at 111,938 miles
Spark plugs were changed at 127,307 miles along with Front and rear Mintex 1144 pads and Godspeed front discs
The fuel Filter was changed at Xsport racing at 128,753 miles
Last year on the 6.3.11 I had a Pink exedy clutch fitted, Skimmed flywheel, oil and filter, Gearbox and diff oils, brake fluid and both rocker cover gaskets changed. This was done by Rich at FB tuning, who also fitted a stronger gear box mount. Mileage was 134,879. I have an invoice for this, but it cam up garbled on my e-mail.

Oil used has always been Silkolene/Fuchs Pro S 10w-50 oil
Tyres are Goodyear A1 symmetrical's 215/40/17. Front's were changed last year after the previous tyres had cracks on the sidewall. Tread is really good.
I've had so much done I'm just going to list it:

Phase 1.5 engine
Simtec ECU fitted and mapped by Jolly Green Monster to 303BHP 300lb/ft torque
I think that's at 1.35 bar, I have graphs from Surrey Rolling Road
Anti- lag and launch control on there, but not activated


It has a VF23 fitted
440cc injectors
Ported headers and up-pipe, all heat wrapped
STI top mount
K and N panel filter
Full decat, downpipe wrapped
Samco Blue turbo intake pipe
Cobra sport back box
Walbro fuel pump
It also has:
Tein superstreet suspension
Whiteline 22mm rear anti-roll bar
Front and rear strut braces
Front and rear droplinks, rear camber bolts, fast road set up by Rich at FB tuning
17" OZ P1 wheels, came from a friends P1
Four pot front Calipers
Braided hoses
I had a genuine P1 front bumper painted and fitted
STI 6 replica spoiler
P1 Grille
upper and lower Zunsport grilles in black
Tinted windows
STI steering wheel (I think) Matching gear ****
Silver pedals
STI front seats
Sti Rear lights
All round crystal lights
Fog covers, one slightly cracked
Air temperature gauge fixed in top mount

Little mud flaps
Boost, oil temp and oil pressure gauges from http://rspec.co.uk/performance-gauge...or-peak-series
Vortex generator on the roof
Bonnet lifters, like Tein but the cheaper ones
Bigger bonnet scoop with air splitter

I think that's it, I forget as I have done this all in the 3 and a half years I have had it.

Down sides
As it's a 1997, the body work isn't too great, there is a slightly bubble appearing on the rear quarter arch, the roof has a number of stone chips which are rusting.
All four door have small dents down, due to me working at motorway services. However, I have four second hand doors which I didn't get round to fitting that will go with the car.

Will include standard down pipe
Front bumper is scratched underneath, and cracking slightly in places
The oil pressure gauge stopped reading accurately, I think this is down to the sender unit

The reason for sale is I have a second car which I drive every day and this sits at home, getting driven weekends and evenings, I would rather someone else enjoy how it is.

I did intend to take it further, I have a friends forged 2 litre engine, HKS front mount , a blitz dump valve and TD05 16g front entry turbo which will be up for sale when I get round to taking pictures.

For any more Info please ask.

I will start it off at £1700 ono depending on interest, I realise, given the mileage this is fairly unrealistic, however it needs a price and I'm not in a rush to sell it. I haven't got time to split it and I don't need a part ex as I have another car.
Garages used:
Stew at TFS Rich at FB tuning Len at Subaru's for you
Xsport Racing Simon at JGM
