TRACKIMAL Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 (edited) Hello there !! My names Matt, just bought a version 3 UK rolling shell (RUST FREE !!) for a grand total of ......£100.Plans are to turn her into a track animal Hence my user name.She currently needs:1) Engine2) Loom3) Gearbox4) Rear Diff5) PedalsAlso going to give the front end a face lift and put some nice XXR 527 18x9.75.Currently drive a 500+ BHP Mitsubishi GTO as my daily at the minute, to nice to take and abuse on a track so this was my perfect excuse for getting a SCOOBY!!.When the Impreza is done i will be on as many track days as i can fit in, so hopefully i'll get to meet a few people from the forum.Thanks Matt.
