Hi all , just joined today.

Looking at buying my first Subaru but could do with a few pointers .
I am looking to spend around 10k on an STI but not sure which one , The type uk maybe .

One things for sure it has to have the Subaru rumble
Do you still get that from the 2.5 models ?

Previous cars ive had are an E60 530d , Lotus 135r and my fav of them all J spec Supra RZ . ive had a few others but they were the best .

At the moment im running around in a 1.2 vauxhall combo van

Hi Cholton,


Can't really help with the 2.5, as i know nothing about it. Just thought I'd welcome you to the site.

welcome to the site!!!!!!!! what ever scooby you buy will have that rumble, but like most of us you want to hear that rumble a bit more(plus need more flow) so we end up changing the factory exhaust for say a blitz nur spec system which is abit much (loud)for some. if i had your budget i would be looking at a nice import sti spec.... anyway good luck with the hunt be sure to slap some pics up of your new toy to show us all.........TURBOADDICT

I had a Nur spec on my Supra , sounded awesome !
I was under the impression that import imprezas were alot quieter , something to do with unequal headers ?

Hawk eye or blob eye i just dont know what to get !

its a stunning example of a un molestered subaru sti with all the added extras and no expence spared.. i would find it really hard to walk away from that without being 10k lighter

Very nice indeed , can't make my mind up on a colour just yet but unmolested would be good . Can anyone recommend an insurance company , I'm 28 with 9 yrs no claims if that helps.

Thanks for the replies , am I right in saying type UK sti's come with a tracker as standard and where can I find out the differences between models ie spec c and spec d and type UK , jeez subaru didn't make it easy did they.
