Hi , I've been looking to get an STi Wagon V3 but having trouble finding any.

I've spotted a couple on the trader and but thats it.

Does anyone know any sources that might have one of these cars or have seen any for sale?

Are these really that rare?

Many thanks

 

I have an STi 3 Wagon V Ltd 096/555 in blue.
Other than a small hole in the driver's seat, it is virtually immaculate.
I rebuilt the engine earlier this year, it is still on O/E turbo, TMIC, injectors and ECU but produces 335 bhp/333 ft/lbs and is VERY good on fuel, an indication how fit the motor is.
Privacy glass, air con, racing pedals,short shift, inlet charge temp guage, boost guage, discreete knock link, 16" gold wheels (recent full refurb) earthing kit and power stabiliser, new plug leads, the list goes on.

This is a sensible fast car (12.9 1/4) but good on fuel when driven accordingly and you will be hard pressed to find a better example.
harveysmith1@btopenworld.com if you are interested. (Darlington)

P.S. Lots of people in the North/Scotland will know this car.

 

Cheers , do you have any pics?


Thanks

Doesn't look like it comes with the black wheels by looking through the description.

Hmm.. nice car's on there mate.. one to remember


Anymore good site's for car's ???

 

Not to split hairs with anybody but:

Unless the car has had an engine rebuild to specifically include a CDB, then it does NOT have one.

 

I think your right harvey , Im sure the B and C engine types were the only ones with a closed deck. The advert I copied and pasted says its a 1997 Version 3 which I think should have been on a D type engine and im sure was the first to have an open deck. I pm'd the contact number to 16v6n so sure he can ask, looks like the trader who has this car had just lifted some info off the net. Pictures of it look really nice tho.....

And 16v6n seems right that the wagon STi Ver3's seem really rare, only a few about, unless anyone can help?

Either way it is no big deal as the open deck block is good for over 500 bhp. It is just that some Traders see a red top engine and can attribute all sorts of magical powers to it.
Personally I think the need for and even perhaps desirability of a CDB is one of the myths in Scooby folklore.

 

sounds about right harvey,

 

Please help me find a wagon! Someone must have a v3 that they no longer want!

The only decent on I've found is japperformanceuk but it comes in white which was the only colour i'm not keen on

 

If you go back on Jap performance homepage they do state they have a stock yard in Japan, worth ringing them & finding out, might have a wagon. Good Luck.

That link should be banned. Some nice wheels on there.

How good are those Starlet/Glanza's?

 

16v6n See post 2.

 

I'd like a version 5. Not going to happen, I fear.
