I don't know what to do with it yet, it's an import imported in 2007 but was lifted by the council for no tax and hasn't moved in a few years, took a gamble, found a spare alarm fob in the centre consol so gonna take down a battery tomorrow to see how it goes

If its been lying for years and you do manage get ignition on, crank it by hand first to make sure its free then disconnect the crank sensor which is tight in behind alternator left hand side. Itll stop it firing, cut the injectors and allow you to build a bit of oil pressure on starter motor only. Then try n fire it up

Being white it would be pretty desirable if it was standard, or not messed about with too much
So what would that make the sti?
