Subaru impreza 1993 wrx 2.0 turbo import with facelift overhaul
Im thinkingof selling my 1993 wrx 2.0 turbo. It is an import with facelift overhaul.
i have owned the car for 19 months and never before now had any major problems with it.
i had the gearbox replaced because the rear driveshaft came out of the rear diff, i was only 1 mile away from home at the time so drove it back, got pretty much to the door and the gearbox went. Took it to a garage and found out i had blew the front diff to pieces inside of the gearbox.
The car has:
replacement gearbox and rear diff from low mileage car - close ratio - new oil in both
new battery last year
import papers - part service history
cambelt and tensioners done about 6 months ago but only done 17 miles!
new thermostat
only ever run on shell v power
always allowed to warm up and cool down
open bell mouth decat downpipe 3" to 2" straight through exhaust & 3" backbox
dump valve
uk2000 turbo alloys
afterburn back lights in black
quad frontlights like morettes, in black with green & blue angel lights
car is K reg v1 with facelift overhaul , everything was taken from low mileage x reg car.
v5/6 engine with facelift front end, facelift dash & v5/6 seats, v5/6 high rise spoiler (literally every part was put on the car, it was a bare shell rebuild)
cusco graphics
full respray in lighter blue to p1 blue
car has air con but hole in air con rad and belt is not connected, if aircon was desired it could be easily done
has 3/4 of a tank of v power petrol
i have all mot since it was imported loads of receipts for bits
Bad points:
Water is bubbling up and coming out of the overspill but temp gauge is only going just above 3/4, not hitting red. There is no oil in the water and no water in the oil,could be a head gasket problem but most likely air locks. Ive recently had thermostat done due to the bubbling that is going on at the minute, decided to try cheaper solutions first before getting head gasket done, then just lost intrest in it to be honest so thinking of getting rid. Not even 100% sure it is head gasket, could be air locks.
The passenger door card is from old v1-4 , and driver rear door card is damaged, both are easy to replace
Drivers door window is blue (all the rest are brown tint import glass)
Slight scratch on passenger glass (jealous neighbours lol)
One of the alloys is slightly curbed, could do with refurb
few little dents
been sat on drive for 6 months but starts, been starting every week or so for few mins.
tax expired - 31/08/10
mot expired - aug/sept
For such an old car it is in excellent condition, to look at you would never guess it is 17 years old. Always turns heads.
have some extras which could be sold with the car or seperately:
hks green cloth mushroom filter for v5/6
brand new never fitted willliams motorsport front mount intercooler still in packaging (brought as xmas present never got round to using)
set of 17" alloys (not 100% sure of make but will find out)
set of 4 brembo's front and back, front come with uprated front discs and pads. rear also come with both but one disc is cracked and they r standard
H8 EVU - (hate evo) Private plate NOT included in sale, would possibly consider sale for reasonable offers.
Im not brilliant at this listing stuff and theres probably loads that ive missed, so if theres anythin u wanna know just message me. Pretty much just testing the water at the min as im unsure what to do!!

i had a problem where my header tank cap kept blowing, i took it round to a mate who regularily has someones engine in bits in his garage and he spotted that the two little pipes from the rad to the header tank were on the wrong way round. drove for 14k like that, since then no problems.
