Is This A Good Buy

Re: Is This A Good Buy?

No, this is: :rotfl:

In all seriousness, if I was looking to shell out on a heavily modified motor for that kind of money I'd be tempted to find a very clean, low mileage classic and use the (significant) spare cash to make the mods myself. OK, might not reach 500bhp without chucking just about everything away, but you could always settle for a bit less power and bit more tailoring the mods to your specific needs.

Just my 2p.

LOL!

Wouldn't part with that amount of cash for a car of that age - 500bhp or not. And, as someone pointed out, the inside is like a shed.

If that is the original CRD impreza, I would steer clear of it.

They had all sorts of problems with it in 2003/4 when they were running it. The cooler at the back of the manifold was for cooling the fuel if I remember correctly, however if its cooling the oil I would question its positioning.

If the back brakes are 4 pots normally found on the front of a classic then chances are its the same car. I remember when George Smith who worked there at the time did that conversion. On a positive note the quality of the work George did on the car was very very good as well, however...........I remember the car being a 4 door STI RA, that at first glance looks like a 2 door. I cannot remember if they re shelled it or had a fire or what happened.

Personally I would steer clear of anything related to CRD.
