Detailed description The JDM Sti 8 is of better specification than the lesser equipped UK versions. The STI 8 Japanese spec. model is stiffer, more spaceous, better handling, safer and better engineered than the best of the GC8 models, the 2 door coupe Type R models, made until the end of 2000. For this version, Subaru pulled out all the stops to make a true driver's machine. Note that only Japanese spec Sti 8's have the quick steering rack and DCCD fitted as standard. These give a very significant difference in drivability compared to UK cars - the equivalent to an Sti 8 WR1 in UK. The Sti 9 has now been released. Identical beneath the skin, the Sti 9's styling is almost as unpopular as the Sti 7. If only Subaru had left the styling of the 8 unchanged - it's undeniably better looking than the 9! For the Sti 8, the turbo is a twin scroll ball bearing unit, which gives fast throttle response and very little turbo lag - making this a gem of an engine - producing approx 275 bhp as standard - with easy remapability of the standard ECU to give 350 bhp approx. On this example, there's also a water spray to the intercooler which can be operated manually through the use of a switch located a short reach to the right of the steering wheel , or left to work automatically. The best new feature of this model is a combination of the stronger 6 speed close ratio gearbox with a sophisticated adjustable centre differential that allows handling characteristics to be finely tuned as desired. By switching bias to the rear wheels, oversteer and 4 wheel drift fun can be had. Setting it to normal mode gives sure footed grip up to levels well beyond those to which people usually drive on public roads. All the way to the front, gives maximum 4WD for use in snow and very slippery conditions. This centre differential can also be operated automatically, where the system can assess which wheels are able to take the most grip and distribute torque accordingly. Unlike the older GC8 models fitted with the adjustable centre differential, these GDB's also come with 4 channel ABS. The brakes are well specified with huge Brembo 4 piston callipers and discs, complete with

braided hoses - to give maximum pedal feel. An Sti quick steering rack is also fitted to enhance response to driver input. The whole car is tuned for maximum response, but not at the expense of comfort and refinement. Headlights are HID, which give a white high intensity light (Similar to daylight) without causing glare for oncoming drivers. Headlamp beam height is also adjustable from a switch to the left of the steering wheel. The gauges in the dashboard each scroll around in a synchronised fashion when the ignition is first switched on. Something we've not seen before on any other car. This particular example is fitted with Defi (Sti Genome branded) gauges showing oil pressure, turbo boost and oil temperature all neatly housed in a purpose made cluster in the middle of the dashboard. Being a Defi system, these also give the driver the added feature of logging, so peak values can be checked, warning settings adjusted and the system can even play back what the readings were, say for 5 minutes before! This example is also fitted with original dealer option BBS 17" forged lightweight alloy wheels, complete with high grip Bridgestone Potenza RE070 sports tyres - the best rubber available in Japan for this type of car - ideally matched to the Sti tuned suspension fitted as standard. An Addzest 200W CD/Cassette/Radio unit has been fitted with high capacity quality speakers to match. Of course, the seats and interior are of STi grade with full supportive seats trimmed in blue Alcantara suede and black cloth. The Steering wheel is leather trimmed with an SRS airbag in the centre (passenger airbag also fitted), there are remote controlled door mirrors with retract mode, electric windows, remote controlled central locking (key has remote built in), factory immobiliser, original (unmarked) STi fitted mats, rear wash/wipe, privacy glass on rear windows (Factory fitted), full trim inside the boot, etc. This example also has the factory fitted side skirts, rear spoiler, etc. Every possible original subaru option has been fitted. In all, around £3,000 has been spent by the last owner on improvements for this car as wheels, tyres, hifi, options, etc. Service books, manuals, etc. were all thoughtfully left in the glovebox by the last owner, complete with the special wheel key for Sti nuts fitted. This is a grade 4 example (Auction sheet is available). As with all cars we buy, we carefully checked this example and washed it - to get an accurate look at the condition of the bodywork, interior, mechanical aspects, etc. It's clear this car wasn't driven hard at all. Intercooler fins are completely intact, there are no chips from high speed debris on the windscreen, brakes look hardly worn, interior is like new and there are not even any pin dents on each side! All we could find after careful inspection were just 1 tiny stone chip / mark on the front bumper! This is almost too small to notice, but we will have it repaired in the UK prior to completion, but a specialist paint professional who can repair these tiny faults to perfection.Having been a non smoker's car that's

clearly never had a hard life, this was an example we were pleased to be able to offer. We drove this example to see what it was like. Felt very fresh and fun to drive. Suspension was compliant and comfortable. Aa a very quick car as standard, it doesn't take long to understand why the Sti 8 is considered the best rally styled sports car currently on sale in Japan.

As long as your budget is sufficient for the car youre after & the car is likely to be available, we will be prepared to find the car you order, or better. Remember: even if you budget too much, it doesnt matter. We operate a system of supplying the best car we can find, plus a set fee of £900. If we can buy your car for a low price, then you make the corresponding saving. (3). When you are ready to proceed, we ask for a deposit (& completed order form, if applicable). The deposit is usually £1,000. If you want a car worth over £10K OTR, then the deposit is £1,500. The deposit is fully refundable without question, should you for any reason need to cancel before a car is bought on your behalf. If you are reserving a car from stock the deposit is refundable less costs and time incurred provided you cancel 4 working days before shipment from Japan. (4). Miguel, our buyer keeps you informed via e-mail periodically whilst searching for your car. Sometimes it can take weeks, even months to find the right car. In addition to Miguel attending the major Tokyo auctions daily, we have buyers searching daily throughout Japan for the car you want. No news simply means we havent found it yet. We dont buy the first car which comes along. It must meet or exceed your requirements whilst not costing more than the OTR price we agreed, though it frequently costs less. (5). As soon as available, we will e-mail you up to 30 detailed photographs, showing all aspects of your car. We also include a detailed description. Of course, total OTR price is known at this stage, so we let you know. Cars are insured from the time theyre bought, to the time they are completed & collected by you in UK. (6). Usually, boats are available every 2-3 weeks, from Japan to UK (Southampton).

We arrange for your car to be shipped on the first vessel available. Around the time the car is shipped, we ask for the second instalment. Typically this is approximately 60% of the cars OTR total cost. Note that the car we supply to you is fully insured at all times prior to you collecting it. (7) We arrange booking of the SVA test in advance - shortly after the car departs, so that the car can be tested as soon as possible upon arrival to UK. We also inform our UK agent of your full contact details and information on everything which needs doing, to make sure the car wil be presented in beautiful condition. (8). Shipping takes 5 weeks. Around 2 weeks before arrival, we ask you for the final instalment, to cover Import duties, VAT, shipping, UK conversions, testing, registraton etc. (9). Before the car arrives, we arrange customs clearance, etc. so the car neednt spend un-necessary time waiting at the docks upon arrival. It usually takes 3-4 days for cars to be unloaded and cleared by UK customs. (10). The car is sent from Southampton to our UK agents premises in Canterbury aboard a car transporter. Upon arrival there, it is SVA converted, derestricted, SVA tested & MOTd (If applicable). All minor cosmetic work required (e.g. bumper scratches) is carried out. The car is fully valetted just before you collect it. (11). The car comes with 6 months road tax and is fully registered in your name as the first UK keeper. If you have a suitable private number plate youd like to go on the car, we can also arrange this, provided you have a DVLA retention certificate. N.B.
