What things have gone wrong with the car?
Front anti-roll bar bushes.
Front ball joints (both).
Idle actuator faulty.
ABS wheel sensor.
General comments?
This car is a stormer now, with head work, starchip, s/s exhaust, now puts out 220 bhp, for only 2000 pounds total!
0-60 is now 5.9seconds (tested at Bruntingthorpe proving grounds)
Really surprises Impreza Turbo owners!
