Forums Forums Enthusiast Forums A - Z Autowirral Good news, finally.

The beast from the east, yes the scooby, is back on the road.

Managed to get it driveable yesterday afternoon and im over the moon.

New sti short block engine gone in, fully adjustable coilovers on, massive front mount intercooler fitted, turbo moddified slightly, new exhaust headers on, new gauges in, fully stripped out, new engine hosing gone in too.

Few minor setbacks and problems, boost pipes coming off so need a few extra hoses, front bumper not on right, front end needs respraying, splitter needs smoothing, need new windscreen, roll cage to go in, erattic idling to sort out, intercooler water spray to do, rear windscreen and wiper to fit, some graphics to sort out, wheel alignment and suspension set up to get done, few gauges to finish off, exhaust to go on, oil leak to sort out but its a runner.

Have put 140 miles on it today and last night just driving about, gotta do an oil change at 750, another at 1500 then re map it all at about 2000 miles.
Gotta keep it below 4000 revs for the first 1000 miles then gradually build her up but im made up.

Will get some pics done on Monday but all im saying is the front end is meeeeeeeeeeean
