2001 MY02 B4 Liberty - V7 STI conversion :)

  Top of Page

Hi all,

I have found something different that I have been chasing for a little while, so the B4 must go! The Wife is looking to buy a property and by selling this I'll be able to afford reno's and this new toy.

You get the whole deal, a EJ207 STI converted B4.

Chasing $16ono, a bit flexible but not overly as the STI engine and bits cost well over 5k. You will get every spare that I have too.

Car:
2001 (MY02) Aus delivered B4
Since purchasing, I have done the following:
New front brake pads
Added an Ultrex lip
MY05 GT Wheels with rwc tyres.
Added a pioneer 7" 6 stack DVD player
Stock grill
Spare set of 16" WRX wheels

The car has ACT Rego to Jan 12, but will have 3 months added.
Has 200,500k's on it, but thats on the body, new engine has approx 50k in it and recently received a full timing belt / water pump service.

Will be sold with the new engine registered as changed too.

The conversion bits:
V8 STI 207 engine (fully serviced by Techworks prior to fitting)
V8 STI TMIC
3" Dump pipe with full 3" MRT exhaust.
ECU / wiring loom
Buyer will also receive a Walbro,  new pads, HKS turbo timer and anything else laying around.

Pics as follows: they are as at 5 December 2011.

Why on earth are you selling this thing immediately after having it made perfect?

Too much choice in life Xon, nah my missus wants to buy an investment property and I'd rather have money for a deposit than completely negative gear it.  I personally don't care if it sells or not as I can't wait it to be finished.

If there's any other interest, I'm also selling my daily too as I don't want to be up to the eyeballs in investment debt!

Considering the time, money and effort, $15,700 is a bargain considering what the cost of it all was!

Have to keep the mrs happy I suppose but it's a shame, the ej207 is such a nice engine. Fingers crossed it doesn't sell for you ;-)

Did you put a v7 6 speed in as well or keep the B4 box?

Wouls have loved to do the 6spd and the brembos, but as you know the later STI's aren't half cuts anymore just individual pieces.  The half cut would have cost over 10k!!!

Std B4 box and it shifts nicely too.
Happy wife, happy life is the term dude!

Not sure what the weight on the B4 is, but for my Gen2 brembos would be massive overkill, since it's almost 200kg lighter than the GDB.
I imagine the B4 box should be fine anyway, I've been using an STi 5 speed for over a year now and it's not showing any signs of wear...

B4 brakes are fine with the engine set up.

Box will be fine, will be changing the oil though to be on the safe side!

Car is finished.. drivers exceptionally well.  Has had a final look over by Techworkz and Mick has confirmed that it drives very well.  Open to serious offers.  I can take out things out to make a tad cheaper e.g DVD, front grill (after market one).
Apexi boost guage is working and the car boosts to 1.2bar.

No error codes or anything bad as Techworkz hooked it up to the diagnostic computer.
