Hi,

Welcome to my project thread for my Crystal Grey 2005 Subaru Impreza wrx STI Type UK

Picked it up from my mate a month ago who had already done some bits to it. I had been looking for months to find the 'one' as these cars are quite rare to find with the DCCD and low milage this one is currently only on 35k Cool

With it being the non PPP (Prodrive performance pack) It only had 265bhp so defo not enough for me to play with.

So it had a custom Remap & upgraded fuel pump done by Thwaites Developments also a full 3" mongoose exhaust inc full decat downpipe, to really give it that Subaru burble Very Happy

Its now running 330bhp Smile

So here she is the day I picked it up Smile

All dirty due to the horrible weather and the hose pipe freezing up!

However me being me that didn't stay like that for long Very Happy

So gave her to good seeing to Wink

Then the snow came down again but in a scooby that means one thing...FUN! Wink

Then was bored one day and decided to create a destop picture for myself :P, Also notice I got my private plate all fitted with Subaru plate surrounds Very Happy

Then I also wanted the front subaru badge to pop out more as standard they are blue but changed it over to a pink one to match the whole STI theme Smile

I was then on the hunt for a set of spare STI wheels to fit some summer tyres I have in the garage.

So picked up these black STI alloys Smile

Thats all for now but have more planned for it so keep an eye out Smile

Comments always welcome

Luke.

looks nice :] better now you have got rid of the tacky gold alloys :] 55bhp is a very nice increase how much extra torque did you get aswell? What plans have you got mate ? you going to lower it at all?

Really nice car and a good choice of axhaust, I don't like that japstyle mufflers and black wheels are great too.

Looks great. At least you have not installed a new terminal to the channel tunnel on the back like most do!

TBH always preferred Evo money pits. To the Scoobys. However yours could easily convert me! It is such a good looking car

I love the evo's too. Just since I've been little I've always wanted a scooby for the sound of it mainly Razz

But granted the front of the Evo looks way better IMO
