Question Blue blob-eye WRX with tiptronic type gearbox do you exist???

Blue blob-eye WRX with tiptronic / steptronic gearbox (two pedals) do you exist???

Seen a bug-eye one but it was red and bug-eye's are not my bag.

Anyone got or ever clapped eyes on one??

I've seen just few of them and mainly they're imports.Last which i've seen few months back has been for around £8k and as you are said bug are most common...

Second car for which you can have look is JDM Legacy which using similar tiptronic box(but not the same)

Good finds, if I find a blue saloon bug or blob I'd be tempted, it's getting closer to the right time now compared to last year

MattyB1983, RE the thread revival, blame google - when you search tiptronic subaru like I did today most of the results have my 'handle' in them somewhere, like the 'zerohundred' thread so i thought I'd marry it up to this thread for nostalgia sake

What you are mean gearbox or engines?

If you are mean engines they're just normal EJ205 with AVCS and normally will take around 400bhp,gearbox they're will take around 350-380bhp above this would need better valve body and possibly better cooling(oil cooler at least).

Conversion from auto to manual is just nightmare
