tjwrx Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 Hi All Just a quick hi to everyone Just getting to grips with my 2nd Impreza, had one a few years ago & regretted selling it ever since, so the wife & i thought oh well lets get another So for the past 2 months i have been getting my hands very dirty bringing the latest family edition up to scratch. 1996 V2 WRX FIA edition number 578/1000. 53c Blue, gold alloys. Bought it cheap as it had/has issues but luckily its getting there. still unsure about the tint on the windows though....... so far a few of the repairs/replacements to get her up & running again have been: 4 x new coil packs full service scoobyecu chip (major-sarcasm on s/net) de-cat (japspeed) 4 x tyres discs & pads all round HEL stainless steel brake lines & 5.1 fluid front calipers overhauled by Godspeed brakes (new s/steel pistons, seals & done purple - also front discs & pads from there too) full interior & boot & trim removed, cleaned, hoovered, vaxed & put back. Idle control valve coolant temp sensor K&N panel filter new battery CDF blue battery clamp with wrx v-ltd 578/1000 engraved on it! Samco turbo hose set zerosprts undertray for bonnet scoop Also been trying to work my magic on the paintwork as i have the full shaboodle of polishing equipment. few other bits as well Thanks for reading guys, look forward to hearing from you.

wrx kenny Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 welcome aboard m8 , nice car hope you get it tip top the way you want it kenny Link to comment
tjwrx Posted September 6, 2010 Author Share Posted September 6, 2010 cheers Kenny . Will get there, i will be getting some DEI heat wrap for the decat soon, then sourcing some light weight pulleys, new rad & more samco hoses! Then looking towards the suspension side of things like arb's & strut braces, then next year hoping to start to gather new parts for a full engine rebuild as she has a very slight crank knock at the moment but drives & pulls very well especially after the chip & supporting mods Link to comment
