Default Scooby No. 4, Bug STI PPP this time! :-)

Hi All :-)

I've had 3 Newage WRX's and spent loads on each modding with STI bits, and now i've finally saved enough to get an STI!!! :-)

Here is my first, and hopefully not last, STI :-)

Lovely mate, glad to see you had the sense to buy what was easily the best model bug Subaru ever made.
I modded my old WRX to look just like this, only difference being I stuck a set of Blob rear clusters and a blob rear bumper on the car as this really freshened up the rear, and had a JDM grille on as I preferred it to the Prodrive 3 piece job.

Looks a nice example, good find, and hope you enjoy her

Cheers guys!

Shes really clean for age :-) and the receipts with full SSH show shes been looked after.

Engine bay and interior are really clean too.

I plan on sorting a few bits and bobs out on it, then keeping it standard.

I'd beg to differ there but the Prodrive UK model is a cracking car.

Nice motor OP!

Cheers guys :-)

The car is MINT on the inside and almost all of the outside, except for bad rust on the subframes. I'm getting them sorted, but the cost on swapping the subframe that holds the engine up and attaches the anti roll bar is eye watering!

Hi Martin,

The old one is up for sale :-) I'm about to drop the price on it.

I wish i had just saved up and bought an STI from the start instead of modding WRX's, as much as its been, I've just lost way too much money on the WRX's.

Oh well, you live and you learn :-)

Once you get your Spec C, you wont look back, and will quickly forget your WRX! I know i have
