I've had her for 10 years this year and probably done in excess of £70k on it. However I don't drink, I don't smoke and I don't put gear up my nose. A 40 a day smoker based on a packet of 20 costing £8 will do £5824 a year. That's £58,240 over 10 years.

They have cancer and I have a 570bhp home built supercar slayer.

Easy to justify in my man math context

Thats brilliant!

Absolute fair play!

The maths never adds up when modifying but it's so much fun!

scoob looks like a weapon!

[frayz]

Check out my new look.

Subaru Impreza Al fresco.

[P4T]

Always looks worse before it looks better!

[frayz]

Absolutely mate,

Its going to be a whole lot different when she comes back. The cage thats going in is quite simply a work of art.
All in T45 too, so nice and light. To say im excited is an understatement.

[KarlMac]

I have to get a passenger ride in this!

(Karl from the Prodrive Register btw)

[frayz]

Still more coming out.

Standard seat rails gone, seatbelt reinforcements gone, basically every unused bracket and fixture is slowly coming out.

These are the man maths I have used over the years

really looking forward to seeing the end result... any plans to go to TOTB? Im trying to get entered this year and strikes me that your could would do well?

[frayz]

No plans im afraid Andy, wedding in September so im already stretching it making room in the time/money budget with the cage work. lol

[frayz]

Here's how she looked last.



However she's been on the back burner for the last week as a rather well known rally drivers body shell needed finishing off and getting in the booth. I've posted some photos of the shell below.
The exterior still needs colour, but the underside and inside has been finished.
If mine comes out half as sexy as this, I'll be delighted!!

Work can now fully commence on mine this week.

[Toilet Duck]

Looks like a very professional outfit, wonder if your car will come back hand signed as well?

[GokTweed]

Not read every response so sorry if this has already been said OP, but as I live near a scooby clinic I can safely say, that has got to be the lamest exhaust pipe ever fitted to a Scooby! 5/10 must try harder!

Car looks awesome mind!

You mean it's the only one that you've seen without a Barry boy rocket launcher hanging off the rear bumper? Lmao.
It was custom made for me by Matt @ Simpson Race Exhausts.
To me, it's absolute perfection.

[Robins]

I'd say its the best exhaust fitted to an Impreza! I love that downturned tailpipe, but I might be a bit biased I had a Toda exhaust on my EP3 with the downturned pipe.

[IvanSTi]

Frayz, what you done t the 2.5 block to strengthen it to handle that sort of boost/power?

[chuntington101]

That's more like a space frame than a roll cage! lol

Pinned it.

Fair do. What you running now or just the same as page one? What turbo you got in and how does it perform?

[frayz]

Same as it was before. I just service it and add fuel. It's usually on its 525bhp map, mainly because I cant be arsed to mess about with meth and it's plenty pokey enough on the road as it is.
It's in a stock GT3582R. Nothing fancy, makes about 1 bar in 4th gear at approx 3700rpm on the road.
Holds 2.1 bar flat to 8krpm.

[clarki]

70k and its still got those awful bugeye lights - no amount of man-maths can justify that!!lol

Lot of work though, fair play.
