Default 5.5K forged 370 BHP Hawkeye - Bargain of the year?

Just seen this listed on ebay

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2006-Suba...BqBM:rk:2:pf:0

Not sure if listed at incorrect price but for all the upgrades its definitely a bargain.


if anyone buys it i'll but the stupidly painted zunsport front grills lol

Nope, not really. Still only a WRX with 5 speed box at the end of the day and forged build still using Subaru head gaskets and standard rods.

Had a long look at this for a friend as he was interested in buying and breaking it, but in all honesty it's not as much of a bargain as it seems at first.

Why does he say its fully forged and then ignore crankshaft and rods?

Either he's lying or he's omitted them for a reason...

Also hes trying to pass it off as an STI in the title. Missed the comma out for a reason

API built it, but doubt it would have been David as he retired in 2016. Probably Simon.
