MY00 Red RX, a nice daily that was sold off once the B4 became reliable...
MY02 Blue B4, aka 'The Project' - v8 JDM STi engine package and assorted other 'goodies' - Sold, then bought back for parts. Stripped and crushed.
MY03 Blue RX, the newer old daily, pretty well more B4 than RX now... In the process of being converted to the track toy... Watch this space!
MY02 Silver Wagon, H6 conversion, full blue/black leather and almost full black interior to go with it.
MY03 White/Silver H6 Outback, donor car for silver waghoon.
MY97 Silver RX, acquired to become track car, but plans changed. To be stripped and scrapped in time.

Yep.
Benefit is i dont feel the need to go R180 now as ive got the "best" rear end available without doing custom shit. A nicer diff other than viscous would be good though

This lego kit is seeming a little too easy... Did Simon hit the brakes in front of you to set all of this in motion? 
Where is the old fella these days anyway??
Keep the updates rolling mate!

Nice mate!
How many sleeps until it arrives? Not many I’d imagine (lack of sleep anticipating its arrival!)
Cheers

Remember that half leather interior i got from the wreckers? Well that was Rev A-C (despite coming from a D-E cos ausdel car suck in that department) and my Legacy is a D-E. You can probably tell where this is going, D-E rear leather seat. Perforated leather instead of rouched? and folding head rests etc
As usual parts that are very hard to find popping up so i have to nab them

Shit, nice find dude! If you don't mind me asking, what was the final price landed? Given how rare these are, I'm guessing there was competition?
