Default New member with a P1 :)

Hi folks i registered on here a couple of months back as i had bought a 95 wrx import with an oil leak! Well after driving it and falling in love with the whole package compared to my fords i was offered a p1 local to me which i snapped up!! heres some pics! It needs some paintwork correction and a small bit of rust on the drivers side arch repaired but my dad and brother are panel beater/paint sprayers so this wont be a problem! its no 481 btw






This last one was with my mates type-r

Very nice! I don't understand why people put these cars in storage over winter. Best time to drive them.

Welcome! With the rust, fingers crossed it isn't too bad as some classic imprezas have had major body corrosion underneith just a few rust spots visable from outside.

Worth fitting if you do any night-time driving.
Is yours the HID kit, or the halogen one?

Checkout this thread: https://www.scoobynet.com/technical-...-lamp-kit.html post No 26 for photos of the HID lights in action
