When you meet that special someone and decide to breed I can guarantee
a 4 door car will last longer than 2. "We need to sell the Subaru coz we
cant get the kids/crap in the back".

Like you say, each to their own, but make sure you're aware of the problems
the 2 doors bring especially if you want to keep it long term.

Fobz, my plan is to build a nice street car with some quality mods that i can track every so often but i would realy like for it to be reliable.

2 doors > 4 doors reason being its not going to be an everyday car something that will sit in the shed and my thoughts towards the mrs if she doesn't like it, its a little badluck.

Each to there own though, but someone find me a nice 2 door, without the crack pipe price.


cheers, james

Seems to be what im after, although why the standard grey manifold not the STi red manifold?

It states in the description the donor car was a 2003 STi test car not sure if this is why its like that?

judging by the rest of the style of the engine bay he may have wanted to keep it looking ultrastock?

American dash swap... Yuck.

I'd be interested in how the Type R was registered for street use.
