Subaru Impreza WRX STI 2004/05 Blobeye for Sale
After much deliberation I have decided to sell my cherished Black Subaru Impreza WRX STI 2004 wide track with (DCCD) after 7 years of ownership.
I bought this car in 2003 from a dealer in Sheffield; it was completely standard and had mileage of 48k on the clock when first bought. The car is still a low 76k, with 2 former keepers.
The reason for selling is because the car doesn’t get much use and it is now time for a change.
This is my second Subaru Impreza and one which has been a joy to have made my own. It’s a great fast road car with scope for further improvements should the new owner wish. A FMIC, bigger Injectors and CAIK will see power increase to 420+. I couldn’t tell you what power it is making right now because I never got round to getting it dyno’d but when I had it remapped after the build I was told it was making around 380bhp / torque, I couldn’t remember but it certainly is quick and responsive with the new engine and MD321H turbo.
Please note the reason engine was rebuilt in July 2014 was because the car wasn't making the expected power for a standard vf35 (which evidently was still making 323bhp, I have dyno for this). On the engines strip down and inspection it was identified the cylinder valves were bent (and therefore had nothing to do with the turbo or anything else).
The car is in immaculate condition throughout, no dents, scratches or knocks, other than a recent crack of the front lip spoiler. The alloys are immaculate with no scratches having been completely refurbished in gunmetal grey. I have however unfortunately in the last 3 weeks had the fog light covers and front radiator grill stolen from my drive. Scumbags!

There was nothing else wrong such as the pistons, rods therefore they did not require changing etc. The fault was with the cylinder valves.
However in the rebuild all required gaskets were changed including New water pump, Lateral /ARP big nut head studs, ACL Race Bearings, RCM Head Gasket were all used.
