Still looking for a classic?
Hi, I saw you were looking for a classic.
My MY00 UK 4 door classic suffered engine failure at the weekend, it looks as though the bearings have failed and something has punched it's way through the centre block. It's deep blue Mica (95H) last of the classics.
I had just had the rear wheel arches done and the rear jacking points, so it's got strong sills. It's done 145K miles, 12 months MOT with no advisories and really just needs a reconditioned engine/new EJ205 short block.
I'm in London, Perivale, really close to the A40. The car is obviously a non-runner and would need to be collected.
I've had the car since 2002, I'm the second owner and bought it from Subaru in Leicester, I have a huge number of receipts. Most of the problem points have been addressed, it's had a new petrol filler, rear arch work and jacking points - 2 weeks ago, which looks perfect.
There are a few modifications to it, it's got :-
Walbro 255 pump
100 cell Sports cat with wide mouth for turbo
original cat pipe
K&N performance filter
WRX intercooler, Samco blue Y intercooler pipes and from recirc valve.
Samco blue coolant pipes.
Whiteline anti lift kit
Whiteline anti roll bars front and rear
Whiteline rollbar mount point for rear
Whiteline alloy rear suspension links
Lightened STi flywheel
Reconditioned Gearbox from David at APiImprezas
Twin pot brake caliper conversion on the rears
Standard Four pots.
Remapped ECUTek ECU.
Crystal sidelights and indicators.
The rest of the car is in reasonably good condition, I can get some photos if you are interested.
My girlfriend doesn't like the car, which is the reason I'm looking at selling it, else I'd put a new engine in it.
PM me if you are interested. Looking for £950 ono.
