  1. Time has come to sell on my 1.5 R impreza its an 08 its done just 45,000 miles seen this going on ebay between 3 an half to 4 grand and mine is by far one of the best I've seen for miles plus all the extras i have added .full carbon bonnet .carbon pillars .sti interior .rear parking sensors .alloy wheels .custom twin exhaust with burn tips .no major points on MOT .cheap to insure .All wheel drive thats just off the top of my head , anything else you want to know just ask i am wanting 4 grand and can't move on the price but its a bargain the car looks and sounds fantastic , all photos since i got it till now can be seen on my gallery let me know if your interested guys
  2. My classic impreza is an import from japan and shows up on all insurance websites and in the log book as a 2.0 na but i realized that this isn't the case and it appears to be a WRX , as it states on the log book its a 2.0 na what would happen if i did god forbid have an accident?
  3. cheers for the advice by the sounds of things the general idea is that if i love it then it doesn't matter about how much it cost , my garage advised me to sell it and buy another in better shape but this one is special because it shows up as a non turbo which means i can actually get insured on it so i think for me i need to keep this people keep telling me I'm crazy but i love this car
  4. Well today the check over didn't go as well as hoped there was numerous small things wrong simple repair but then there was 2 major issues that i am waiting on a quote to repair , the exhaust has a large hole around the gasket and the big problem is it needs a new diff :( the turbo has been called lazy also and the there is an oil and gearbox leak at the end of all this it needs remapped All this aside the car is 21 years old (older than me ) and has done 95000 miles so what i really would like to know from any other classic owners or other experienced scooby owners is it worth keeping? how long could it last?
  5. cheers for the help , things didn't go to well when it had a checkup so the money will instead be spent elsewhere sadly
  6. I have decided to go ahead and respray my classic mean eye impreza i am going to completely modernize the car to make it look new including the new subaru badges , i want to spray it black as i think it will go really well with the red leather interior but i am one of those people who wants my car to always look immaculate and I've heard black is such a hard colour to maintain but does it really look that bad? any black scooby owners want to give me some tips that would be great also any more ideas on how to modernize the car would be great , thanks
  7. Well my new impreza is currently booked in for a 6 point check and rolling road for the 1st of june and if all goes well i want to restore it to full glory starting with the paint , struggling to find anywhere that will do a full respray in a different colour (black) , my brother has sprayed a few cars fully and they have came out great but its very time consuming and neither of us really have time to do this new scooby so basically does anyone know of a good place for a full respray including changing the colour? any help would be great as i want this looking like a brand new impreza and keep it as a classic car
  8. I have a 1.5 R subaru hatchback 08 which i adore but is just not quick enough , i also have a 2.0 turbocharged first generation impreza 94 which i love the power but i prefer the newer subaru styling. Basically what i want to know is it possible to get my turbocharged 2.0 engine swapped into my hatchback or am i dreaming? any help on this would be much appreciated there is a picture down below of the 2 cars to avoid any confusion , cheers
  9. My carbon bonnet cost me £500! not cheap!
  10. The sti is far more expensive to run especially as i do long motorway journeys often and yes it does have limited features as its from 1994 but its the power of it that i love where as my hatchback has all the comforts you need but no power being a 1.5 na Timmyjk7 - yeah i work in lille barracks not far
  11. Just got a second scooby :)!

  12. My new car 2.0 wrx sti turbocharged 300bhp
  13. Ok so I bought a new Subaru 94 import wrx Sti it's fast like 300bhp fast and now I'm not so sure what to do with my 1.5 hatch which I still have and love , any ideas how to choose ?
  14. waiting for rota wheels....

  15. thanks for the advice lads unfortunately as I'm only 19 getting a wrx or sti isn't an option for me , my car is a hatchback 1.5 r and they do the same model with a 2.0 engine still not wrx or sti just standard impreza
  16. I drive a 08 1.5 hatchback and wanting more power i can get insured on anything turbo so do you think its worth getting a 2 litre engine from the same model? any advise on this would be much appreciated
  17. Attempting to turn my 1.5 into a complete custom , looking at some pedals on ebay from an 08 impreza and want to know if they would fit my 07 hatchback also what is a good price to pay for these?
  18. I have a NA subaru which i have bought a bonnet with vents in and the alternator is getting rust on it , any ideas in how to solve this?
