no no, they are decent kit for what they do, its just a case of they havn't been made for many many years now and all electronics arn't the most reliable as they get older. Link vs syvecs isnt as big a gap as you think, its a toss up i've been making for mine. What you don't find out till the time you have one fitted is you need certain extra things, for example to use the full features and get the best out of it you need a sensor pack is about £1000 for decent sensors and installation. So for mine, Link ecu £1400 (ish), was quoted around £3k fitted inc fuel flex etc Syvecs S7L ecu £2100 (ish), was quoted around £3.5k fitted with fuel flex etc So about £500 new (seemed to be less cost for the syvecs installation and mapping so could just be a bit company dependant as clinic is syvecs home base of course) Fitting, mapping and sensor pack, fuel flex, cal switch etc is all gonna be the same across them. which all adds money on to the cost but would be the same for both. The syvecs does have some additional features that the link doesn't, rolling launch controll, more inputs and oututs allowing more things to be connected. You can pick up second hand syvecs now and again so an S6 would do the job and prob be around £1500. But that said the link is more than enough for most setups.

a decent condition working apexi is become very rare now adays, given the hassel of old electronics i'd just chuck a link in, or a syvecs if your feeling flush of course 😄

S202 vs v7 sti limited
s202 is basicly a limited edition of the bug, if its decent nick then buy it 🙂 https://www.type-ra.com/impreza-s202-sti-version/ https://www.importcarparts.co.uk/gallery-info?id=6 off the top of my head, it should have, titanium exhaust, roof vent, wheels are unique to the model, carbon spoiler, black seats etc etc

Struggling to find a garage!
prices are what they are, bear in mind they wont be selling many legacy exhausts so price will reflect that, aka unit cost will be higher

you wont ever get your money back on mods and such, i;ve prob dropped 20k into mine and it will prob mean if i were to sell it i;d get 2-3k more than if i hadnt. But to me its always about enjoyment, break it down per hour and it works out cheap as chips 😄

Are these the first signs of the dreaded rear arch rust?
They normaly go frrom the inside out, so first sign is bubbles under the paint.

Advice Wanted (Head Gasket)
they tend to pinch the crank bearings, which is whatr fails rather thant he crank itself. If your planing to keep the car and thinking of tuning it then may as well do the rods and pistons while your there, also maybe look at closed decking it as its not mega money i the grand cost of a build.

Price?
Prices have gone up recently but sounds over priced to me. Does look tidy but strong money (bear in mind its all opinion of what they are worth) Be aware you will need to chuck some money at the brakes imo as the ones on it are crap. The '16' inch model was a despeced car provided cheaper to race teams to convert to rally cars, so the idea of it being a special edition is horse pish. They put the cheapest nastiest seats, wheels and brakes on it, should have a wrx spoiler as well. From looking at it the spoiler, wheels, interior are aftermarket/mod's as these were the bits they put the cheapest bits on as they were always chucked int he bin
