Default my impreza P1

after reading a few of the threads,thought it was about time i started mine. it all started back in 09 i began looking for
a impreza after falling in love with the burble , didn't really know alot about subaru"s after been into toyota all my life.
so searching through car forums,piston heads,local and abroad for an impreza,until i stumbled on a impreza,but not any impreza
but a P1.so in june 09 i headed over to england for a week to look at a couple of P1s. the car had to have a few specific like the
18inch anchan rite Pwrc1.prodrive/alcon upgrade, low mileage and plenty of paperwork of all the service history etc.

my very 1st pic on the P1 on irish soil


over the next couple of months it was left as standard,as i began to stockpile up a few parts to improve the exterior of the P1

1st to get done was a second set of pwrc 1 in 18


and to be honest never really looked great in my mind so back went the ancharite set of rims.

she stood like this for a while,as work didnt leave me much time on my toy

Very nice!

Not a fan of gold rims myself so I agree with your change back.
