1997 Subaru Impreza WRX
 
Hello,

Ok i went to pick up my WRX from the panel beater after the water pump was fixed... And to my amazement it wasn't ready. In fact NOTHING has been done to it..

i don't know what to do.. i don't know how much longer i can wait. I gave them another week.. but took some pictures of its current state.. there is picture of the car from angles let me know if there is a specific picture i need to take... there is no OWNERS manual as its 10 years old and lost with one of the previous owners ... the key is in the ignition and a video :P

I'm currently just modding the pictures so be ready for a few pics being uploaded.

Can't argue with this ride. I love the mid-late 90's WRXs and Evos much better than the newer ones.

Maybe you should take it to another shop as it looks like it is just collecting a lot of dust...

I have already paid for the respray and so forth

Punch them in the throat and tell them to give it back.

Either way, great car you've got there. What color are you going to respray it?

Pokiou 06-06-2007 08:34 PM

im keeping it the factory red... maybe a little pearll but atm i just want it back lol

I finally picked her up. im so happy.. she drives excellent other then the crunching into 2nd gear but that should be fixed with some Redline gearbox oil :D

Nice. I like those early Japanese Hotrods as well.

Reminds me of all thsoe ultra cool late 1980's early 1990's JDM 250cc 2 stroke and 400cc 4 stroke motorcycles they created.

Those were the best days for JDM sport bikes and cars I think... I think the current cars are trying to hard to appeal to a broader audience.

I totally agree..

ill be posting up some custom shots proving its mine later tonite :D

Nice buy, man! It's crazy to see how much WRX's have changed between our 2 cars (10 years apart). Sadly the US never got WRX's until 2002, or I'm sure a few years ago I would've purchased one about that age. Still a nice looking, aggressive little rally beast.

Do you have any immediate plans for it? I know Australia has some nice gravel roads (well, it's that pea gravel, so I'm sure it would get everywhere) which you can have some fun on!

:D

yea im getting the STI front lip .. i already have intake and exhaust and rims :D... so just lip and a nice stereo :S.. oh and maybe some snow tyres so when i head up hill for some skiing i can rally it :P

SilviaEvo 08-03-2007 12:28 AM

Zot09 08-03-2007 06:47 PM

Nice ride! Just like how some others have already stated this, WRX's from that gen. are really awesome!

Pokiou 08-06-2007 05:54 AM
