Well its not a version 6 as its a wrx, then its also an MY99 car, forget about the GL crap, if its a WRX then it should be registered as a WRX and insured as such, so straight away it puts me off the owner.
BHP will be 276 (280ps), it cant have both ac and climate control
its one or the other (normally climate control), the induction kit will kill the maf sensor, that can lead to engine failure 
(dump valve can stay on the floor, thats all its good for 
)
No sign of any service history, can be off putting, and no price, also off putting as he may well want far more than its worth (about 3.5k).

PS, mileage is more like 101k miles, not 89k miles if you convert it from 162k km.

I would get it checked out by a local subaru speciallist first if you can, if he is willing to take it there and you pay, will cost you about an hours labour, that should prove if its ok or not.
Oh and see how much your insurance will be!
