Hi All,

 

Thought i would start a progress/project thread. I like doing these as it keeps a track of my progress and also some people may enjoy looking at them.

 

Well im new to Jap and new to scoobys for the past 7 years ive had renaultsports mainly clios and last 2 i had megane 225.

 

My last car before i bought the impreza bought it standard and then sold it running a healthy 272hp and 280lb/ft torque.

 

Loved that car but i wanted an impreza since i was a kid so thought now was the chance to jump ship.

Car came up local to me and car seemed to check out ok and the rest is history so to speak.

 

Its a Subaru Impreza blobeye wrx 2003 with Prodrive Pack

 

Anyway my previous car when i bought it

Only had the car around a month and started doing a few mods already:

 

Changed Oil and filter/pollen filter and air filter for green cotton one

New afterburner backbox and running decat

New strut brace

Put the recirc valve back on

Just had my coilovers fitted but still need to adjust the rear so haven’t got any great pics at the moment

Fresh new number plates

New front lower grill

Pink Sti badge

Subaru Boot Mat

Debadge

 

Ive got sti fog covers coming and front splitter aswell. And im having a stage 2 clutch being put in Tuesday. Also received red horns.

 

From what i can see car needs wheels refurbed and i want some decent rubber aswell.

 

Then hopefully getting a new VF35 turbo and pink injectors and then new fuel pump and then new map.

Looking good! Could you tell me what the lower grill you have is, and did you fit the lip spoiler? If so what one did you go for?

Ah nice, thanks for the links! I'm not really a fan of silver cars (having had one, not a scoob though) but jeez your paint looks amazing! Gratz.

Had my coilovers adjusted at front as it was nose diving a bit to make it more even across the car.

perfect now and just clears road humps with still the stance i want.

ordered new private plate aswell S26 OOB

Also ticked over the bed in clutch 500 mileage phase since installed

Loving the mods!

How did you mount your front plate? Is it just 3M tape?? 

Mine has the tape on then they've bolted it in and its pulled it down at a stupid angle nearly pulling the tape off, it looks crap!

I was a bit worried about just taping it on in case it comes off!

loving the car i seen that they are the same coilovers as i just put on what is the ride height front and back please and is it very hard drive like that looks amazing tho cheers shaggy

Its just normal tape cleaned the area and where the small bit sticks out put decent tape on all that and stuck it on. Intially thought same as you it would come off but its solid on front now
