Default Stunning Mag Featured STI V5 340BHP - Rebuilt engine

As most of you know i bought this car in july and after just 10 days of owning the engine went. Well i was unsure of what to do but in the end decided to get it repaired as it was worth nothing broken. Anyway, the car was sent to API engines and had a full engine rebuild.

The price is £7000 which is worth every penny as this car really is immaculate, body work is mint, interior is mint, no wear anywhere, and of course the engine has been fully rebuilt by the best in the business...API

The car was also photographed for Japanese performance magzine, Jap mag have been running features in their magzine giving people a guide to buying "your first skyline" for example, but this time they were doing a feature on "Your first STI". They were looking for a stage 1 STI (mine) and a stage 2 STI (Daone's off scoobynet) The feature will be a 6 page feature. The photoshoot was at quintec test track in surrey. Had a great day and i'm sure the feature is gonna be awesome. The magazine feature will be in january's issue which comes out in december.

I've decided to sell this car as i have always wanted a P1 and feel that now is the time to get one before i spend anymore money on this one


Here's the spec and pics

The car itself is an Ex Graham Goode owned car and has loads of Graham goode goodies on the car which help it push out 340bhp. The power of the car is amazing, i can't stop grinning from ear to ear everytime i drive it. My old car was pushing out around 250 bhp, and i thought it was quick, but **** me, this thing is lightning The condition of the car is excellent and it has only done a genuine 55,000. I have loads of receipts for the car and in the last 7 months it has had a new gearbox, new clutch, new flywheel, new diffs and new discs at the cost of £4000, which leaves you with a car that feels so smooth to drive. loads of tax and mot left too
