Default Guess whos dak, dak again....

Sing that in the Eminem guess whos back tune and it makes more sense...

Anyhooooooooo, Hi my name is TJ, I am a friendly immigrant from Serbia who has just landed in this wonderful country.

Since the only vehicle we had before in the motherland was a donkey, I wanted to get something a little faster.
Then slow
then fast
then slow
then fast
then slow

You get the picture.

So a few months ago I sold my beloved RS ... and bought a BMW 5 series. Comfy and slow as hell. It has rendered me depressed in literally months. To solve this issue I got myself a budget toy today in case you didnt know by now. I got it for a great price for what it is - just something mildly entertaining.

1996 Hatch
Converted to ADM 1998 WRX - sedan as a donor.
Full 98 dash swap done including door trims etc.
96 WRX seats
99/00 bonnet - needs replacement but there is one there alread
4 pot calipers with slotted rotors
Kartboy shifter bushes and rear shifter mount
330mm sports wheel
Walbro fuel pump
16 inch WRC wheels








After taking it for a drive, I have deducted it is quicker in a straight line than my RS, so right now mods are a non concern. Handles pretty well too so another non issue

I do have a list of things I want to do

-big clean
-2 chips in windscreen need sorting
-resolve bonnet aside, I cant stand hail
-clean a couple of other bits of the body
-tint
-different steering wheel - I cant see due to my height
-different wheels

And ill just enjoy it for about 9 months, get bored, and sell. I do this ALOT

Also keeping the bmw which means I dont mind if this is getting work done to it.

Thanks Corrie for a hassle free sale.

nice work TJ... glad to see you back in dak (see what I did there)

What wheels do you have in mind? STI wagon spoilers would finish it off too, and a front end update... if you could factor it in!

Otherwise, you've got yourself a great car there!

EDIT: Andy, get outta my head :P

kym it has a late model front end?

I actually really like the plain rear - no stickers or badges = clean

wheels - may as well jump on the rota bandwagon - how can you not for the dollars asked.

Bumper looks like a 97/98, not the 99/00 variant. Sti front lip maybe? Ultrex copy. Group buy for rims coming up soon. Can't say no to $800 Rota's
