Figured this could do with an update due to some recent developments..
After a few months of waiting and viewing a few cars, I still wasn't keen on any that I found.
After seeing a black late 05 STI pop up on a Facebook group, and just shy of 10 tags I went to view and test drive the car.....
Then picked it up the next day...
The good;
-92000 kms
-mint interior
-very well looked after exterior/paint
-minor work done
-perfect platform for me to build on
The bad;
-It's black and it doesn't live in a fully enclosed garage
Luckily I live with a gentleman who specializes in keeping cars clean.
Mods are currently minor - Inlet, 3" X-Force
TBE, Hot Air intake, obnoxious
BOV, Full Chargespeed kit and a rather laggy tune for a VF35.
My plans consist of essentially swapping all my old goodies onto the car, new rather serious fuel setup, head-studs and get it on a dyno.
Car will be treated to;
-PW FMIC (blacked out cooler and piping)
-PW 72mm Cold Air
-Perrin Inlet and SFB
-Blouch back on
-Headers back on
-Raceworks Surge Setup - single 460 in tank and 1 in the surge
-Fuel Rails and
FPR
-ID1500's or bigger
-Braided Teflon front to back
-ARP 11mm Headstuds
-Powered by corn
Aiming for more stealth this time round - blacked out engine bay, sensible height and wheel fitment with close to 400 WHP.
Chargespeed kit - side skirts and rear spats will be coming off, as will the daft wheel spacers currently fitted.
Will be on the hunt for some nice Jap wheels, the world of 5x114.3 is great for such a plan.
REVNURAZR plates will be going to keep with this theme (finally got tired of a target on my back and matured a bit)
Here are some lousy pics, will snap some more when I get home after it's had a fresh detail and the headlights have been corrected...
Installed the Koyo today as I was bored, black hoses are on order, the old ones were in poor condition so they were turfed.
