He read the vin off his dash. Which is a sport sedan dashboard swapped from a parts car. So when they looked the car up it came up as a sports sedan not an L

^ I know. He knew that too, but he was cool about it since it got me a better settlement.

Yeah, the interior on the turbo parts car was a lot nicer than my L interior. I didn't care to swap the VIN tags.

Yea, I was surprised at the condition of that interior with over 200,000 on the car. Guess it helped that the owner was like a 90lb Asian woman for the most of it's life.

I'll have the loot in a few weeks.
I've been looking at craigslist in the rust free areas. I've seen a few cars for under $1k that I would consider having shipped here. I don't even care if the it runs.

Yes it is twin intercooled -
TMIC + Alky injection = old set-up
FMIC + Alky injection = New set-up.
Here is an old underhood pic + new outside shots of my OBS-t.
Thanks SubaruNation for posting these!!!
I just got the FMIC on the car a few weeks back & did not take any under-hood pics of the tubing yet for some strange reason - I'll have to get on that this weekend.
Again this is just a lightly boosted STOCK (no head swaps or ANYTHING done to the motor internally) 1999 2.2e Impreza that my buddy & I turbo'd back in '04.
The Turbo set-up keeps getting updated with improved accessories, while the body is Back-dated to JDM V2 WRX Specs (V2 Aluminum Hood, V2 grille, V2 bumper, the V4 Type "R" front lip is the oddball piece)
I have all of the parts needed to make a V4 GF8 STi clone from the Aero-guards to the Big STi Wings that I plan install when I get the car painted 1 color.
I'm still trying to get Dan to come to the darkside & get an Impreza!!!!

Can't afford it. That and I'd really have to redo pipe set to get everything to fit.
