    Impreza Cosworth...!

    A combination of variables is why I lost a lot on mine. The big tax band as you say puts a lot of people off. The car market crashed this year and the hatch not being as popular as mentioned by a few on here. I almost bought a yellow spec c before purchasing mine but didn’t think the...

    Impreza Cosworth...!

    recently sold my hatch Sti. Based on my experience of owners groups and selling parts I don’t think I could own a high value/ special edition Impreza. Nobody’s interested in genuine quality parts as I found trying to resell sti items but they all love Perrin dress up parts, tints and bolas...

    Didn’t do well at all unfortunately, the market in general doesn’t seem to be doing great so taking a big hit on it from what I paid a year ago

    Nissan Silvia spec R

    they are only weekend toys for me anyway as I drive a work van so not overly fussed. But get no more than 18mpg in the Subaru so just looking for an improvement/ slight reduction in costs. How do you find the comparison between the 308 and 200? With the interiors being opposite ends of the...

    Nissan Silvia spec R

    in reality I probably only made 2k max on the s15 when you consider what I’d spent on it but still a lot better than a loss! 8k is what they should still be, do you regret getting rid of yours besides the financial aspect? Without a doubt better for the uk roads. Much more modern, comfortable...

    Bought for £13.5k approx 4 1/2 years ago sold it for 22k, needed some work on the strut towers at that. Rare occurrence to make money on a car for sure!

    Nissan Silvia spec R

    Forgot a picture of the engine bay. Cars come from Scotland where the previous owner had a lot work done. Forged engine with cosworth headgasket, supertech valves, 1050cc injectors, precision turbo, rcm breather kit amongst the long list. glad they kept it looking original as opposed to what...

    Cheers mate. Indeed they did, not too sure what else may have been upgraded as opposed to regular models. Was going to get a yellow spec c but couldn’t justify the extra cost

    Nissan Silvia spec R

    Don’t miss the s15 one bit, I think the hype around them is way bigger than what it should be, was a fun car to drive like a nob but any other time it wasn’t pleasant on the awful roads we have. Build quality isn’t great either, as to be expected within reason with a late 90’s car but no...

    Nissan Silvia spec R

    Had my time with the Silvia but fancied a change for various reasons. Had it mapped to 300bhp and was a fun car but I’d done what I wanted to the car other than paintwork which didn’t seem viable and quickly got bored. Sold the car privately and acquired a new vehicle. Very different car but...

    Home cctv and phone apps? recommendations please!

    Always better to position them on corners to reduce blind spots. On the Side of a house for example I usually install one on the front corner looking down to the back of the property and one on on the back corner looking to the front of the property, house layout and size dependant of course...

    Nissan Silvia spec R

    Cheers mate. Do love rpf1s and not too bad price wise, I did want to replace the white te37s with bronze ones but couldn’t justify the price they go for in good specs. anything ford, or Japanese seems to be good investments. I wasn’t particularly bothered about its value to start with but makes...

    Nissan Silvia spec R

    Thanks man! Cheers! They have, in comparison to a lot of other jdm cars of the same era. I think the tail lights show it’s age slightly but not a big fan of the aftermarket options.

    Nissan Silvia spec R

    Cheers man! Prices are crazy now, I bought mine for £13k so got in before the massive increase. Spec R’s seem to go for anything between £20k-30k at the minute! I’d love a s203 subaru but believe they’ve skyrocketed as well

    The s15 has looks abit different now. sold the rays te37s as the fitment wasn’t great with them being more Honda specs. Was also fed up of constantly cleaning white wheels. Fitted some genuine oem skirts. Replaced them with some brand new enkei rpf1s. Over done on many cars but not often seen...

    JDM import advice and experience

    They were great to start with and couldn’t be more helpful to be fair but once a car was secured it declined from then on. Also had a friend have some issues with purchasing parts. I have seen people make complaints about most uk importers mind.

    JDM import advice and experience

    If I was to import again I would go with either torque gt or Jm imports. Had a few issues with the company I used which tarnished the experience abit.

    that’s good to know, will take a look at their range for the Silvia as I’d like to replace all the bushings gradually. Did you get an oem column bush or the updated metal ones?
