tcb 180 will become famous soon enough
Nice one !

We gave up on our wrx import and sold it for bits. Rolling shell went for £300 so not done too bad. Bought a 2000 uk spec genuine 87k for £1,700.

Just for a tinker about now and then as too expensive for a daily runner.

Andy Forrest remap complete roughly 357bhp he recons now with the road run, obviosly not a dyno but comparing to equivelant cars. Also activated blip downshifts so the revs match the gearing on the downshifts...makes it a bit smoother/slicker. Could have had launch control activated as well but didn't see the point really

We still enjoying ours and they are alright to work on too. No where near your power but still an awesome car in standard form too.

Once you've driven one it really does impress tbh.

Later 2.5's did have a lot of engine probs I see.
