G'day guys, have just bought a front end damaged, failed big end bearing wrx 1999 with an sti engine. Has lots of aftermarket bits running off a power fc.

I think originally this car was bought from a member here. It's green with 18in grid rotors, ultrex strut bars, slotted rotors,Anyone??

Well he blew the original engine and got it replaced with what I can tell is an 02 sti, since then it's been crashed and big ends have failed. Poor guy.

Plans are to put it on a diet,rebuild it, get it entry level race ready, cage it and compete.

Hope to get to know some of you guys and I'll need some help I'm sure as Ive got more knowledge of evo engines.

Cheers, scott, rockingham ghetto

It's been on carsales for ages as most people just tried to low ball him too much, it's still got rego but has a failed bearing in the bottom end somewhere. Picked it up for a two and half grand, fair price me thinks,

Just had a look, it's not on gumtree.
