Default Fugly

My new project. As you know I've bought this off Dave with the engine out. I haven't even seen the car yet. Dave sounds like a sensible chap & I'm normally a decent judge of people. So it starts FUGLY the hatch.



Few things bought today. Head bolts, ordered a Mocal 19 row oil cooler through Dan, lateral oil pump, baffle plate all safety stuff really. Will add more when I know more really.

You've got a good one, seen it many a time and it's only recently that it's had a load chucked at it

Should be a great car when finished handling is supposed to be amazing when sorted.

It's a very nice looking car and looks menacing in that colour! Sure it'll go as good as it looks once you've had your way with it!

I think this Scoob has been responsible for changing a lot of peoples opinions on the hatch, so great to see it staying local.

Look forward to seeing what you do with it!

Still haven't seen this as yet. Things are moving on ok now I hope. Car is now going fully forged Lateral rods are on route to Dan. Apart from the crank it's all new. Heads are away somewhere being checked over. Will get it run in as soon as & sort any issues I come across on the handling side. When I'm happy the power can be cranked up.

Sounds like you will end up with a great car there, by all accounts with the right setup the hatch's can be one hell of a road/track weapon.

My daughter bought my Bugeye Scoob {the black one} Well she came down here for a short break. She has now bought Fugly. So looks like the Hawkeye is staying. Bye Fugly.

Loving the whole look and stance of the hatch. Personally the pipes look a bit OTT for my liking and like the OEM quad look. But bet that sounds the dogs and good for plenty of power.

So which one you keeping ?. Hawk or Hatch ?

H&S as advertised on here. Rob I can see what your saying. A bit of black exhaust paint might sort it. I will wait untill I see it in the flesh so to speak. Not keen on the quad pipe set up. To many pipes & no burble. Something this ugly needs an edge & that burble is fuglys edge. I also think it may surprise a few people on the road. I mean take that sti badge off & it could be any jap hatch. Once mapped its not going to be slow or shouldent be anyway. Sort suspension & brakes & with that new engine should be job done.

I know I pointed you at these pipes on Ebay, but seeing it on the car I'm not sure. Looks a bit like my wheel barrow.

However, I suppose the good thing is you won't be showing too many people your pipes.
