That one you've found does actually look really good, quite like the colour too!!
June 1, 201411 yr Yeah I might be wrong can't see on my phone You don't see them very often and I would love one
June 1, 201411 yr Author This is a newer version http://sjautomotive.com.au/ecutek_monitor.htm Sounds pretty handy that then, a bit like a higher tech version of boost gauges etc then?
June 2, 201411 yr Author Well how about this for a spaner in the works!! I put something on FB last night about what happened to the engine and my old mate of 30 years, who I bought the car from called me this morning. Apologised over the engine going pop so has said he will pay for another engine if I find one, I can fit it myself so that's not an issue. Good news but was kinda looking forward to getting a boosted one :)
June 2, 201411 yr Author That's good mates for you ! Yeah I guess, was hoping for a new car ;) Cheers for your help though :)
June 2, 201411 yr Author Just buy mine when I sell it next year Lemme know how much you'd be looking for and I'll set it aside :)
June 2, 201411 yr There will be a random day it pisses me off and I will say sell !! Opened passenger door today and had cobwebs !!
June 4, 201411 yr Author Good news, found an engine which we collect tomorrow ready to be fitted at the weekend :) Also ended up getting very very cheaply the following list. - RB5 alloys with Goodyear tyres for £40 - KYB shocks and standard springs for £50 - Whiteline rear ARB for free - WRX rear diff for £30 It'll all be fitted at the same time :)
June 5, 201411 yr Author Agreed!! It's a similar upgrade on the GTA with the ARBs. I'll collect the gear at 1pm so will put photos up :)
June 5, 201411 yr Author Picked up the bits and the engine :) The engine is spotless, it's just had a rebuild, all painted up etc. looks brand new :) The ARB just needs some paint and it'll be fine!! Shocks all good!! The alloys are actually pretty good, gloss black with a little bit of curbing, tyres mismatched but I'll chuck on some super sports :) All in its been a good day, been offered a WRX Wagon in green for £800 too
