Hi welcome revo I have a 93classic import,hope you've done your checks,as I fell in with mine,as it had been heavily modded over the years and thrashed,and within two weeks of getting it the engine popped!
Just had an engine rebuild at a cost of £2000

hello mate, very good choice of car the classic import wrx-if its metallic silver then its simply the best car ever
if its completely standard then first things must be new backbox and replacement air filter which should get you to around 280bhp, which is a very rapid motor (fast enough for me) and release the scooby burble
wheels brakes and suspension will need upgrading next to improve cornering and stopping and from here on in the worlds your oyster but its gonna cost ya
v power/98 ron fuel is a must by the way
check when the cam belt was last changed
most of all enjoy it
cheers

first of all if its not been mapped for our fuel then run it on v power which is 99+ ron!
and i would also advise you to use an octane boost as i am on my 95 WRX which is silver.
the fastest of them all!
