I try to do a few track days a year and have been to the Nurburgring for the last three.

Currently looking for a ej22t block for a engine build so that I can teach the Impreza drivers whose boss :twisted:

Thanks to Josh (legacy777) for showing me this great site :D

The turbo went rather rattly after a day at spa so I didnt manage many laps of the ring last year :x

My favorite body style in my second favorite color. How much are you willing to spend on the 2.2 block? I know of one that would be sold for the right price (bare block halves).

Would you like to do me a favor? I'd like a set of EU headlights if you see any for a decent price.

Finding EU (LHD) in the UK would be next to impossible i'm afraid but if I see any I will let you know. Are your plastic then?

I might already have found a 2.2t block but could be interested in another sned me a pm and let me know what the owner want for it

Not so much room as you guys have due to the twin cam heads on JDM and EU cars

Does that have 73663 km on it?! Even if that's miles, that's still amazing. My Focus is not 8 months old and has 25k miles already.

They are only found on the JDM models with climate control. (buttons are hidden behind a flap when not in use)

UK and EU cars are different probably similar to US ones

Ciper, there's one or two guys in Europe that pick up and sell those headlights on the bbs. Check out the parts shed. Timo is one of those members I believe that has sold them in the past.

Alright. I had forgotten which side of the road everyone drove on when I posted this. Yes my current car has plastic lenses that are so yellow you cannot see inside of them in daylight.

I appreciate those members doing the work but the price they charge is too high for my personal budget. I dont need the adjustors or corner lights or city lights, just a set of useable headlights.
