davedrift Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 (edited) Hello there everyone I'm dave Pleasure to meet you all. I've just became the owner of a 2000 Mica Red Classic Wagon with a few mods.it's my first impreza even although i'm at the ripe old age of 29 After driving my mate 95 WRX i had to have one. I have owned an Integra type-r for the past 6 years and although it was a fantastic car i am glad to have a bit of comfort and torque in my life now. As you can guess from my unsername i'm into drifting. I also own a 91 S13 200sx drift car ( that i didn't drive once last year ). Hopefully it should be back out playing by the summer. I also own a 1986 Mercedes 190E lowrider. I bought it for pennies at the end of the summer. The guy was practically giving it away so it would have been rude not to buy it. Plus it makes people laugh one way or another....You either love it or hate it Anyway enough talking sh*t from me. Here is a few pics of my new wagon. It would be great if anyone on here knows the car and could give me any info about it. Cheers Dave Impreza Lowrider Edited January 11, 2010 by davedrift
stum450n Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 Welcome to SIDC! I've never heard of a 190E lowrider... just happens that yours is the first that appears in google! here! I'm loving that!
tomwrx08 Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 welcome mate, nice wagon but the 190e is mental
davedrift Posted January 11, 2010 Author Posted January 11, 2010 Hi to all Thanks for the warm welcome. I'm based near Falkirk....around 10 miles from falkirk to be exact. I'm sure the wagon i bought is from around my area too as i have seen the car before. It's i good condition but it could be doing with a good machine polish to get rid of any small scratches and swirl marks. I'm thinking about getting a nice P1 front splitter and leaving it black to match the skirts and rear spats. A more pressing issue is the clutch which could be doing with being replaced rather soon. The car has some mods which include Sti intercooler Sti front strut brace Ninja centre section and rear box K&N panel filter P1 suspension ?? ( not sure about this...aren't the wagons diffrent at the back from the saloon???) 18 inch alloys ( might be getting rid of these soon) I have to say i am really loving the impreza. Fantastic car to drive around in and the noise Ahhhhh the lowrider The guy i bvought it from built the whole car from scratch. The juice setup ( hydraulics) was brought over from america by the previous owner. It's running 2 black magic street spec pumps with 4 dump valves, which means it can lift each side and drop all 4 corners independantly. It's great fun and pretty good to drive as it still has the original shock fitted. These might be getting done away with during the summer as it will move a LOT better if the shock are binned. I'll get some better pics of it once the snow has gone as it's just been sitting doing nothing since it snowed. Dave
gus the bus Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 Welcome to the forum Dave, I'll keep an eye out for you in the Impreza around Fawkirk I take it you got it from G:Max in Camelon!? Gus
paul555sti Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 Hello and welcome to the club. I am just over the river from you but work in Grangemouth so i will keep an eye out for the wagon. I have a mate thats has 200 sx ( sarefeet is his user name on the 200sx forums ). Love the lowrider it looks like its straight from a snoop dogg video.
davedrift Posted January 11, 2010 Author Posted January 11, 2010 Gus - Yeah picked it up from g-max in camelon. It was traded in there just before christmas and they were wanting a bit more for it than i wanted to pay but a bit of bartering later and i got it for a good price. Gimme a shout if you see me about Paul - I know sarefeet. I've seen him at a few drift days. I don't know him directly but he talks to guys i know from through glasgow way. Dave
StewartyBoy Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 Glad to hear you never paid the asking price! Colour is cracking, once machine polished it'll look incredible. Wheels are a bit different for the type of car, more bling than rallying but they seem to fit in. MON THE WAGONS!
paul555sti Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 I will try and get along with sarefeet to some of the drift days this year.
