Big Power Scoob

[leeds_182]

Gave this a once over today.

It's an sti ra which has just had a lot of work done and should be running 450 to 500bhp when the running in period is over.

Here's some pics;

 

[Cub.]

Ooft. Lovely.

@Phase1sr is going to have a hernia when he sees this.

 

[Nick_Leeds]

That is f**king ace.

 

[JackJack]

Very nice, don't normally like the older ones.

 

[gwyn rallye]

Stunning car! Love it. Whats the score with the diesel like back box pointing downwards?

 

[Greeny.]

Lovely!

 

[DaveDreads]

I like that it's almost a sleeper in terms of how it looks, you'd never know it was running massive power from the outside.

 

[scotiamr2t]

Stunning, my favourite shape of scooby

 

[Mr R.]

Ooft. Lovely.

Flol.
I'm already in talks with a company in Japan about shipping one over. [emoji23]

 

[Loz H]

Oooh thats nice!

 

[Rob]

Yep. That's proper.

Joes? I'm not a massive fan of the wheels . A set of gold revolutions would suit that, a lot. But hey I drive a fiat stilo

Yeah, he wanted 16s and I think they only do revos in 17 and over.

 

[imprezaworks]

Ah. By far one of the nicest imprezas about. And what's going on with all this cleaning lark, future pro detailer??

Yeah, I'm gonna start doing it on the side of I learn a few more bits.

 

[imprezaworks]

Will help pay for the car swapping

Much prefer it to the usual over-sized baked bean can you see on old Imprezas though!

Hater......

 

[choong-moo]

That's a lot of cars there buddy. Even has the manifold round the right way too

 

[Steven103]

Hater......

Absolutely, I think they look & sound dreadful :smile: They don't even sound remotely like the type of noise a Group N let alone WRC Impreza (for good reason) makes either.

The car in this thread though, is absolutely lovely.

 

[Mr R.]

This is epic mate, this is way i want an RA so bad.

 

[Matt_90]

Love it! I think the exhaust tip on it is awesome, how it should be.

 

[leeds_182]

It is a nice ride. I can't wait for a go when it's run in and running the big power.

 

[yeecup]

Perfect. I love proper old school scoobs . Looks fantastic. I always wanted an ra. Still do. Came very close to importing one years back. I had a company bidding on 2 v3 sti's, one an ra the other just an sti. When they inspected them prior to bidding they said the ra wasn't up to their standards so I ended up with a white v3 sti. Grade 4. Loved that car. Very very quick in standard guise.

 

[leeds_182]

This should be pretty bonkers when finished. Should be mapped for boooooooost in the next week or so.

Will be on the mlr sprint series this year.

 

[kin quick]

That's stunning!

 

[leeds_182]

Mapping on Monday.

 

[Cookson]

Gotta love an old scooby. That mid-level spoiler is just perfect. Not too wanker, not too scene. I dont like the roof scoop on the RA, but apart from that, perfect in my eyes

 

[Mr R.]

What's something like this worth?

Jim, do you have a spec list mate?

 

[leeds_182]

After much messing about with the mapping this car has finally been mapped. I went to blyton yesterday with the owner and it's got to be the fastest car I've been in! Absolutely epic and well jealous! The owner doesn't want to publish the bhp results but it's more than adequate.

 

[leeds_182]

Few pics I took of the day;

 

[imprezaworks]

Must resist another impreza....

 

[_Tom]

Doesn't want to publish the results means one thing..

 

[leeds_182]

Doesn't want to publish the results means one thing..:wink:

I know the results and that's not the reason!

 

[_Tom]

I know the results and that's not the reason!

Haha to be fair even standard is enough so I am sure it's ballistic.

 

[imprezaworks]

322 with similar torque aparantly

 

[alistairolsen]

That's perfect IMHO, only thing Id change is the wheels if it were mine! Always fancied on of these

 

[_Tom]

322 with similar torque aparantly

Really?

 

[imprezaworks]

Lol, nope

 

[neil a]

Very nice I loved the way my old classic drove and the sound

That elise/exige looks a serious piece of kit.
