July 1, 20169 yr wagon has some rot in the floor, Its got thro a MOT and i know savage did a reshell im not going for comfort so interior is easy and general stuff.... what model should i go for? I fancy a RA !
July 2, 20169 yr If you intend on fitting the v5/v6 wagons engine I'd look for a clean jdm v5/v6 with a fubar'd engine . As using the same version will make the engine loom,inlet manifold and auxiliaries match up easier. As for model ,I personally wouldn't get anything to special as you would de value it by re shelling into it . I saw a mint condition ,bog standard v1sti up for £8k . I think I'd be lucky to get that for my modded one , even though the engine n 6 speed is probably worth £5k . I will admit my clean shell would've gone to the scrappies if I hadn't have saved it for my project .Mind you I don't think I'll ever sell it but if I did I'd probably have to break it to get my money back. If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊
July 11, 20169 yr Author Took side skirts off its no where near as bad as first thought ! It was a section about size of a 50p ! After they told me needed extensive welding , checked everywhere and nothing !! Looks more ore like the Jack slipped
July 12, 20169 yr Don't forget to check the top of rear suspension turrets , cos my old 97 UK looked ok from the underneath and outside but when I removed the boot liners the rear turrets were fubar'd If it's not broke .....upgrade it 😊
July 12, 20169 yr Author I removed most my boot to fit the Sti lights didn't notice anything but think I better get some sealant in there
