If going for a vehicle over 10yrs old don't be put off doing registration uk end yourself as it cheap & super simple & opens up more supply options & the budget can go on actual top auction grade car rather than traders profit .

Are you able to elaborate for us numpties please Mr B? [emoji3]

They still asking silly money ?

Trouble with the ibc stuff is they just buy anything and send over, I was looking at a eunos ages back and it was battered they were still asking two and a half grand, only thing worth saving was all the arc stuff

Does anybody have any idea about the performance figures of a JDM 2.0 Impreza WRX with auto gearbox please? 2005/6 models, so late blob or early hawk models.

Thanks

be about 240bhp roughly 

 

If it has to be a auto, look at the evo mate with the GTA box

Thanks...the importer with one on the way (and sold) has quoted 250bhp for the JDM wrx auto

haha I have no idea tbh.

 

I'd imagine it would need a new gearbox+clutch and a whole load of other parts too haha
