Hey all, ive been a ghost on here for a while, thought id do a thread for my silver box.
Long story short, had a mad Forester, had an accident, was wrote off, bought it back from insurance, pulled it to bits and made a better Forester.
This is my 2002 GT Luxury Pack in 01G premium silver. I bought it pretty much stock around 8 months ago with 176xxx km and full service history. I like to do everything myself as its good practice, you learn and its much more satisfying to me to have done everything yourself and my wallet saves abit also.
The car pretty is pretty much an S/tb STI II replica, the paint and prep for the kit was done myself in my shed.
Recently tuned at a safe 163 KW atw with 465 nm of torque at Newcastle Dyno Centre by Nathan Its my only car so it gets driven daily and has ample power for where I drive and handles great on an occasional twist.
