I'm interested in a valuation from members. What do you think it is worth? 53 Plate JDM WRX 93k KM which i believe is about 60k miles MOT til Sept 16 but I am about to put it through a new MOT Private plate STI spoiler STI matts 2 x boost gauges (I don't understand why? The previous owner must of loved boost) Launch control set at 4300 RPM Turbo timer JVC bluetooth CD player with sub and amp Black intercooler Cat 1 immobiliser Freshly painted alloys, no kerning at all 300bhp with no proof Mishimoto radiator induction kit with relocated filter all new hoses Blitz dump valve Fully undersealed ETC Cant think of more but i will update...

Me and my mate will be there, We was too late to get club tickets or display tickets though.

Let me know if they are still for sale. You are only an hour up the road!

I'll start a thread and let you know!

Thanks for the advice guys. Yeah it's a 5 speed. I'm happy with the 300 bhp mark anyway. After driving it today, i feel handling mods are the way forward, starting with brakes. It's just had a full service including all fluid, even gearbox and diff. I'll be looking to get a health check and dyno run ASAP!

It's a hypothetical question to be honest. I'm collecting the car tomorrow. I don't like the idea of buying a car and straight away trying to get as much power as possible. I'd rather get used to it as it is then try push for power. It's currently at the 300 mark though. I've read that, injectors, turbo, exhaust and a fmic is all that is needed to push to 450bhp. Is that true?

So imagine that you have just bought a JDM blobeye for relatively cheap. It's pretty much stock except a few STI parts. You find that because you spent less than you was expecting, you have £1k spare to start the mods. What would be the first few things you'd buy?

I'm in Colchester. I've been to a few meets in London and Kent before. I don't mind a road trip Thanks Kayzarh

The car i hope to collect. 53 plate. Currently R21 RDY

Hi, I have just put a deposit down on a JDM WRX import. Hopefully collecting it this weekend. I have read alot of the buying tips threads and there is some great info. Doe anyone have any tips on JDM specific checks? Besides the minimal extra insurance, indicator on the wrong side and £200 extra tax, I'm struggling to see any cons of a JDM. Please feel free to point them out. Here is a pic of my last car which i sold for a house but couldn't take driving a gutless 1.0 ltr corsa any more so bought this WRX as a treat to myself. If anyone has any warnings on this car please let me know . I spent alot of time on the 350zUK forum so i look forward to meeting you all and attending meets. Ps I'm located in Essex / Leicester Thanks
