Time to get a 3D printer guys! The speaker situation would be resolved in 30 minutes in a CAD software, and 2-3 hours of printing, Fast, cheap, customizable! PS: this series is just awesome. I've been binging the episodes in the last two days, cant get enough!

[@ariffpgibnu7659]

Please hurry up next episode! the best subaru gc8 restoring video ever!!!!!

[@stephenmoore5775]

Any P1 stuff coming up content was awesome 👌

[@marcnelson8986]

It was thanks to my boss who bought a brand new p1 back in 2001 that I bought my y2k UK turbo at the age of 24 at the same time! It cost me £20k and I was skint for the next 5 years, ended up keeping the car for 17 years before selling it on. These cars were epic!

[@bravo478bl]

Not happy with the amount of video's coming from Torque so I'm ordering night shifts now.🤣 I had the same issue with my door speakers and replaced with Hertz into a MDF housing template. 👍

[@abbeyhall4624]

The great heatwave of 2022, bring it on!

[@JapsDmz]

A mate of a mate had one of these cars 20 years ago,exactly the same colour and body. It was absolutely rapid . 🤣👌

[@connorm3809]

A GC8 top console lid without any cracks is a very rare sight. Loving this build 🙌

[@DrDreq]

cant believe you don't have bigger audience

[@amjadkhanzeb112]

fyi C pillar trim has to come out again for the 8mm nut the holds the Qtr glass trim in place

[@anthonymuigai3257]

Progress excellent....Enjoying the video from Kenya....keep it up.

[@subieneeyoom116]

I had a regular old GC8 2.5 RS but it was very similar. Nice to see this one coming along.

[@crankysan100]

I would say keep it as your Torque GT show car . Credit to Mitch on his spanking cleaning / spraying . I taught him well !! :)

[@kumaprodriveone]

Wow so much job done on this video. I'm happy and sad at the same time 'cause we can see the end of this project coming. I don't mind the speaker since the motor is the only music I'm listening when driving the P1 😂

[@blitzwing1985]

I remember I made an MDF parcel shelf for my first car following a how-to out of a Max Power magazine it looked ok for something made by a 17 year old. I guess the alternative these days would be to 3d print a bracket. Lots of people can make them if you don't mind giving them all the measurements etc.

[@johnrowell942]

Great video and cool fire truck

[@Richmond98]

My father has an ex fire 70 series Ute. Put a turbo on it and they come to life. Still slow, but way way better.

[@jamiemiller7752]

Great job. Agree about the seats. I did 130000 miles in my UK Turbo 2000 (couldn't afford a P1) and they really are the best.

[@alistairjaffray3772]

Coming together well, can’t wait to see it finished but I will miss the episodes 👍🏼

[@lukewaring2832]

Going to be a weapon. Well worth the effort..😎👍🤪

[@davidwilkinson435]

Great idea with the speakers, I will need to do something similar with mine. The project is coming on nicely and I admire the quality of workmanship 👍

[@seanmcneill8899]

Amazing work as always lad's. Think I will have the fire truck as my work car and the p1 as my bit on the side 😎

[@diamondsink2000]

Everything you guy do is mint!!!

[@markopolo9421]

Love how it’s coming together… but my young son said dad the underneath of the seats is rusty !!?

[@danbarruffo7743]

Nah, that "patina" 🤣

[@awdobsession717]

Coming along nicely 👏🏻

[@richardbartholomew7924]

I love this car can't wait to see this finished I'd love one of these love watching your videos mate

[@the72inc73]

Ooo this is going up for sale? I better fire that Euro lotto on....

[@asalouros]

Looking good lads! Excellent work putting all the pieces back together.

[@FanatikBuilds]

Beautiful car, beautiful job! 👏👌

[@christosdardampounis400]

Done good job already! Keep going!

[@profitestpk]

Nice work guys! Keep it up 👍

[@gary8289]

Half way there guy's, but when finished, what happens to the P1?

[@ericn7698]

Great work on getting the interior in! Loving the progress made thus far. Slow, but steady.

[@DavidSmith-mf8ik]

looking good job well done 👍👍👍

[@TheCabrooster11]

It’s going to be absolutely stunning when you get finished if only I had the money to buy it 😢

[@kumaprodriveone]

Less expensive than a P25 !

[@markpiper8082]

I bet the bulb in the hazard switch doesn't work lol. Great job 👍👍

[@TheDettman]

lol

[@Christosan88]

very nice

[@aroundtheworldindays6770]

Anymore updates? been awhile

[@ajmarlow8533]

Gear knob's a bit floppy...Lololol

[@TheScoobyp1]

Gona b stunner

[@lineageplayer9527]

I love this build. But how are you guys gonna handle all the exterior discontinued trims and rubber?? Especially the scrappers/window belt molding

[@eurospek]

With the headliner out, I would’ve gone black.

[@focus3303]

Guys great job ......superb work...🙏 When it's finished what will be the asking price?

[@andymurdoch1346]

Coming along superbly. Can see it becoming a collection piece and not seeing the tarmac very often. Ps is it Sonic blue? It looks more like WR blue in the videos.

[@danbarruffo7743]

Definitely sonic blue but I know what you mean, the camera makes it a bit more vibrant!

[@russelladams7053]

Looking awesome amazing job a mate off mine used to have one p12sub would love to know iff it's still around awesome cars

[@simonk337]

Don't think you're allowed to say that anymore Rolf 😃

[@danbarruffo7743]

🤣🤣 now then, now then.... at least I didn't mention Saville!

[@ThePaultap]

I had a Silver Uk Spec year 2000 Impreza Turbo 5 DR, it was a great car, at the time it was 215 BHP and standard, I think from memory the specs were 0 -60 mph in 5.8 seconds and 142mph, which was very good in its day. Do you have any plans to increase the performance of the engine in this P1 or are you keeping it standard?

[@danbarruffo7743]

Standard for now.

[@everythingmillie6056]

What happened to the rest of this build ?

[@ap9500]

@ Dan. Drivers seat looks mint. Just a clean up or did it need any work ?

[@danbarruffo7743]

Just a clean up!

[@royreid1644]

Don’t sell it keep if the time that’s goes into something like this money doesn’t bring back keep it for your Collection it’s going to look amazing when it’s finished

[@gabrielvk8073]

Please do all of us a huge favor. Don't sell the project, keep it and maybe do some races in a racetrack. The project is becoming more beautiful each episode.

[@miguel_rocha_]

Any update to this build?

[@DarrenJMHughes]

It’s slowly coming together and looks really good. So this P1 will be for sale then? Not keep it as a ‘demo’.

[@danbarruffo7743]

Everything is for sale for the right price...

[@alockett160]

I'd not bother with the speaker as you say, the exhaust is the only soundtrack needed.

[@scoobyman76]

I 💯 % agree, I've rarely got the stereo on in my impreza just the sound of a de-cat boxer. Only drawback is my bleeding ears on a motorway journey 🤣🤣🤣

[@aaronredbaron]

Did the P25 drag the value of this up? How much? Love it, good luck getting it back on the road!

[@danbarruffo7743]

Hopefully!

[@monraypretorius3585]

Great work and what an epic project. Can't wait for that first start and final product. Out of curiosity what would this cost once completed?

[@feedingfrenzy123]

How long is a piece of string? Excluding labour, easily four to five figures in parts and getting bits recommissioned

[@monraypretorius3585]

@@feedingfrenzy123 honestly you could've just kept this response. This isn't a piece of a string, it's a Subaru Impreza P1 restoration, meaning it has a price. Which interestingly enough comes from the parts and labour put into the build. Thanks for being as useful as your piece of string comment.

[@uriahmessrah9919]

@@monraypretorius3585 Only a tool asks the "how much does it cost" question. Go build something and find out for yourself.

[@mattw1393]

Any updates guys?!

[@chandlerbraaten847]

I'm having withdrawals! I know you can't rush greatness but I need a fix! When's the next Project P1 video coming out!

[@alexwaite9377]

Will the next episode be appearing soon?

[@RYRZ998]

where do they get that many chasis from

[@uriahmessrah9919]

Hey, you guys don't happen to have a source for new old stock or re-pop weather stripping for these awesome coupe's do you???

[@danbarruffo7743]

We're working on it.

[@simonmcmaster8949]

Has the P1 been shelved? Missing the content.

[@jongent802]

Did this ever get finished?

[@demo_akudama]

Any updates on this resto?

[@duckduckdiecast3324]

Did you guys use a tap and die for the heater matrix?

[@danbarruffo7743]

I tig welded a new fitting on.

[@brand_engineering]

How are we looking with this?

[@miguel_rocha_]

did you stop this one?

[@PHIL0098]

When’s the next episode ???

[@4CountDaddy]

Blue pills... LOL!

[@jonsim2636]

What are you looking for mate

[@danbarruffo7743]

Less than a P25!

[@TheScoobyp1]

Have they gone out of business

[@user-pz8bj6ig9s]

new episode plz…

[@tessbushell5489]

1st 👍🏻

[@MrBubba123bubba]

All that work and they put the steering wheel on the wrong side.😁

[@danbarruffo7743]

It's on the right side. Literally!🤣

[@jonsim2636]

Give me a price

[@Breaddc2]

Anyone ever finish this thing?

[@Torque-GT]

Next episode finally dropping soon!

Sweeeeeeet!
