At the end of the day it's not going to be worth a great deal, it's a 120K WRX, not very desirable to be honest. Think you made a mistake in the first place by buying it fella.
I'm sorry but you are one of the reasons people with subarus look like complete a**holes. I bought a 2002 wrx bug eye with 80k for 4500 and it was modded and I would smoke your measly ***super built sti*** but I won't even go there cuz I'm not a di*khead. I'd rather spend my money on a wrx and put more money then to have an sti thay cost a hell of a lot more for extra **** that I don't need. Swapped to the sti trans which ia really what your paying all that extra money for and brembos. People lile you make me sick. I love both subarus but to tell someone he made a mistake is absolutely stupid and flat out ignorant. That's fine you'd rather drive an old sti verse a nicer wrx great for you awesome. I'm sure your the only person who never had an issue with your sti. They all have similar problems with engine failures, rod knocks, ring lands etc. I can't believe how dumb you are knocking on a person with only a "wrx" when he's simply trying to figure out an issue. Noone gives a flying mothef**** about a sti right now . I honesty hope ur precious sti takes a dump and spins a bearing and blows a rod out your engine your imbocile. But I almost forgot stis never have that problem because they are totally different. God your an idiot. Anyway good luck to the OP as my buddy's precious *sti* HAD the same problem and unfortunately he's looking for a new block such as a stroker. But almost forgot stis don't ever have problems. Lmao go suck on a 8=====D. Your supposed to help out fellow subaru owners not bash them for making a mistake about buying a car he liked. I hope ur brembos were worth that extra 15 k you spent. No disrespect on my end I love both just not this fools sti.

In my defence, the thread is 5 years old and by the look of my replies id obviously woken up on the wrong side of the bed that day....lol.....

But back to your drug addiction.. It must be quite a serious habit if you paid £4500 for a bug wrx.. lol....
