Just would advise you to get a Jap import as they're mechanically more sound, but insurance will be a bit higher. Jap has more power as standard than UK. A UK spec STI will have more power than a UK WRX, assuming both cars are standard. But a UK STI will have less power than a Jap STI, again assuming both cars are standard. Hope that helps a bit.

thats all true, but i doubt he will get a uk sti for £6k to be honest

especially considering that the uk wrx and sti variants didnt even come into production until 2001 via the bugeye onwards...

the advise i would suggest is look on the for sale section on here. lots of cared for an unabused cars rather than getting stuck with some dog from possible route via autotrader ebay etc. also try pistonheads for ideas on prices.
