Faster spooling turbo and good top end

If I remember correctly these have a slightly higher top end but that comes with more lag though.

Yeah was gonna suggest a v6 spoiler. Thats what I had on my classic. I think it finishes the car of propperly.

Definately worth cleaning the car youself as you appreciate it more.


Jimmy mate like I said in the other post get that rust sorted as soon as possible. If I had my classic I would have shown you the damage lol. It really didn't look that bad that if I did show you pics you couldn't tell there was any rust. But when it had eaten its way through well you know what happened.

Good stuff mate.
So was it the fat bird you mentioned that owned it last?Did she tell you about any interesting bits it's had?
Always a bonus to speak to the previous owner.

what does fixing the rear arches involve is it cutting and welding new ones in or grinding back rust,treating and repainting?

She bought it of a guy called Tom who had it from when it landed 5 years ago,she only had it 9 months and did NOTHING to it,Inc oil !! NOTHING,just put fuel in,I spoke to him yesterday,a nice bloke to be fair,he put on a new de-catted exhaust and some basic stuff but mostly standard but took good care of it,I said I thought it was her who had it from day one but wasn't...He sold it to her for £5200 10 months ago and 1 month ago she px'd it to the van trader,he did keep saying it was mint,as you can see by the pix I nicked he sent me lol...The car is well know on the Jap website as he is...

No,it's just a tiny bit of rust on rear pass side,but I want it right,on drivers rear she has put a tiny 5" scratch that you can hardly see but will have that done as well...Engine nice,gearbox nice and tight...Inside is mint

at least you got a proper impreza and not another wrx lol.
if i was going to get a classic it would be the model i would go for without a doubt.
please no stickers and carbon bonnets though.

NOSSY_89

It depends on how bad the rust is but it really is a pain in the ****. If anyone tells you different they are chatting it lol.

Jimmy drop some OEM gold rims or some decent looking rims on there preferably in gold to keep it looking JDM.

That's women for you but 9 months isn't too bad.
I don't suppose you kept your simtec from your old car to stick in this one?



Danny.

the hamster

iTrader: (7)

He didnt have a simtec, he had it mapped by ESL on the stock ecu

Mr moff

iTrader: (1)

Ah gotcha.
Jimmy,quick question,well to everyone really.Does anyone else get pinned by their seatbelt after a quick squirt?
Both belts do this and it's quite annoying.You have to eject them so you can breathe again.

had the belt problem on an old car something faulty inside the mechanism i think, spring tensioner or something. had to replace them both, i was told it was caused by moisture. no idea if this is true though.

the hamster

sounds like a problem with the intertia system on the belt mechanism. Doesnt do it on my MY00 with 300bhp

Mr moff

iTrader: (1)

Time to replace them then.Thanks tommy.

chopperman

My seat belt always seems to tighten. I think you can by clips for the belt to help stop it.

tubbytommy

iTrader: (20)

as hamster says something fails in the real part. i have no idea which bit it is but it was easier and cheaper to replace the belt from a breakers

Anyway, back on topic.

Went to halfords with Mr Saville today and had a look at stereos. Found this, what a great bit of kit for the money

Theres a single din in the Jimmy chariot at the moment so he wants to get a double din in there and a sub in the boot as it already has the wiring for one.

IMO I hate gold wheels,I had some leightweight sppedlines that I sold as can't stand them,was going to put white ones on,but if I do that will be the last thing,need to get this one right lol

I had an ESL fitted only bloody last week !! But that's life !!
I can't get hold of Duncan who did that one,but that's a must to have an ECU fitted..

In the others but this one has some weird arm that sticks out ??

jimmyinrugby

iTrader: (1)

You can't knock the price though,worth it at double that,clever how the sat nav works on it,and as an iPhone fan it's got to be a must,but of course after more important things to Bert first !

the hamster

iTrader: (7)

Thats because its a 2 door mate and the door pillar is further back so it has a seat belt extender to get it over the shoulder of the seat.
