Default New classic owner.
Hello everyone. My name is Colin. I bought my impreza classic mid December. Really loving it. Had to replace the radiator as it had a pin hole leak. Just Ordered cambelt, water pump, oil and filter, air filter fuel filter and plugs. Mainly for peace of mind. It has full service history. The rear arches were done 10 days before I bought the car. I'm hoping to go to events and shows this year to see what it's all about.

Cheers

Colin

Backbox looks similar to the Prodrive one, has it got any markings on it?

I haven't had a good look at it. On the service history it only states "fit customer supplied rear silencer"


This arrived today

OK, just thought you may have picked up one with the PPP without realising it. Would have been a nice bonus for you.

The PPP was a new ECU, de-cat centre pipe, intercooler hose and back box, different wheels were an optional extra available on any Impreza I believe, if you have a comprehensive history for the car I'd expect the certificate from Prodrive to be lurking in there somewhere.
I did mine myself via odd bits from eBay.

I don't have the original invoice of sale so there are a few bits that may not be there. I don't recall seeing any blue under the bonnet though.
