Gambit Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Hi mate welcome to S.O.C Sounds like you have a nice can and worth spending the cash on. I take it, it runs fine no noises. Best thing to do is share some pictures. We like pictures here :D And we can get a better idea I guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay762 Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Wotcha and welcome - If it is a WRX there should be a letter after GC8 of either A-G which would identify year and spec can you post some photo's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iktank Posted October 27, 2013 Author Share Posted October 27, 2013 Cheers bothe - I will get some pics next time I venture to the car and see if I can find an engine number, no engine number on log book. Log book very sparse only states Chassis number as GC8-005934. Car was an import and first registered in UK Aug 2000, I know at one point it was worked on by the Subaru rally team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iktank Posted October 27, 2013 Author Share Posted October 27, 2013 Ill get to the lock-up later this week and take some pics and have a look for the serial numbers. Hopefully be able to sort what I have from there. Want to sort out what its worth before I spend money on it. It runs which is a good sign, brakes need servicing and I'll have to change the dump clutch if i'm going to run it on the road All oils will require replacing so will be pestering you all for oil specs etc, I havent looked into the car at all yet so dont know squat Engine oil diff oil gear box oil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
