OK so this is the story :)
After selling my previous "rocket in the pocket" Fiat Punto GT (1,4Turbo) I started searching for something else... And I came with the idea to fulfill my childhood dream - Impreza :)
The one I've found was shabby looking GT from Switzerland, MY99, imported to Poland in 2000 :) Typically exteript was not so well, there were virtually no rear arches :) and generally many things outside screaming for help.
But all the goodies were inside :) Car was constantly build and upgraded by a guy working in some of the best tuning firms in Warsaw and in Poland. So... This is what I got for less than 6000$:

GT my99 4-dood sedan
STi my03 EUDM AVCS 2,0t EJ207 semi-closed deck, 317hp (280WHP) / 383 Nm torque
Gearbox - TY754VB1CA - 5MT (STi - RA '99) with rear R180 plated diff with DCCD managed by DCCDPro Manual
STi short-shifter
Suspension - Kayaba AGX
Whiteline strut brace front and rear
AntiLiftKit - Whiteline
All suspension bushes changed to Powerflex / Whiteline (including rear diff polibushes :) )
Whiteline front (22mm) and rear (20mm) sway bars + heavy duty mount kits
Gearbox STi heavy duty mount
ACT Race Sprung 6 Pad Paddle Clutch
OMORI gauges: Boost, Oil temperature, EGT + center console mount
GT/WRX 4-pot 294mm front brakes / Winmax Arma SR brake pads
GT rear discs
Flocked dashboard
Fujitsubo Giken Legalis SuperR full 3" straight-through with 3" wide-flange downpipe
STi v5 style rear wing
17" WRX gold rims

Things added later on:
some bodywork - to get rid of the rust in rear arches and generally in the whole chassis
Kevlar-composite engine and gearbox guard
Kevlar-composite fog light covers
Big - STi03 style hood scoop
WRX 2-pot rear 290mm brakes
Launch control - 4900RPM
New map - for 280WHP / 317HP
Radiator fan manual switch :)
4-point Sabelt 3" harness
Bucket seat MircoXL (polish brand) + racing mounts
17" WRX silver rims
17" Legacy yellow rims
16" stock GT Black matte rims
some Potenza RE070 tyres and many more :)

And an autocross training with LC:


Now - I an still trying to learn to drive Scratchy and waiting eagerly for winter.
Plans - not much: find someday front helical diff for 5MT and mount gearbox blast-plates. Mayby some AntyLagSystem will come in handy?

And this is it ... for now :D

Yesterday I've been doing some road tests. I'm not very happy, but it's not all that bad.
Best performed with LaunchControl and slow shifting to 2nd and 3rd.
Numbers are in kmh of course.
