Mileage is 176998 km/109981 miles (speedo and odometer still read in kms)
MOT December 2013
Taxed until November 2013

Imported in Dec 2009 by TBM Imports. I am the first UK owner.

In this time, I have regularly changed the oil and filter every 6k miles and serviced the car as required including a new Exedy clutch in February 2012 as well as new brake discs/pads and a new battery in March 2013.

It has the usual GT-B spec including factory Bilstein suspension, 17" wheels, built in dog guard/cargo net, HID headlights, side-skirts, rear spats, front splitter and rear spoiler, factory window tints, AC climate control and MOMO steering wheel. It has also had a Sigma Thatcham Cat 1 alarm and immobiliser fitted with installation certificate.

During my ownership, I have installed the following modifications:

NGK iridium spark plugs
Torqueflow exhaust with Hayward & Scott decat
Blitz Super Sound BOV
Zerosports Super Direct Flow air filter and intake pipe
Zerosports Cool Action intercooler splitter
Zerosports Cool radiator panel
Zerosports Sequential Controller with piggyback ECU harness
Zerosports(?) headlamp eyelids (came with the car from Japan)
Cusco strut brace with unknown JDM underbrace
Nutty earthing kit
NA air snorkel to direct air to the air filter
RFRB grille
Stock 17" wheels painted black with Plastidip
Falken tyres
STi gear **** and tax disc holder
Omori boost gauge
Subaru rear bumper protector
Subaru cargo load liner
Subaru UK spec OEM CD/Cassette double-din headunit
Pioneer door speakers
Toxic tweeters
Kenwood KSC-SW01 underseat subwoofer
Kenwood iPod connector
Blue LED interior lighting
LED sidelights and number plate lights
A few stickers here and there

The GT-B is the perfect blend of practicality, comfort and performance. For an estate car that can house 5 people and two large dogs in the boot, the overall performance and handling of this car is staggering.

The car has been my daily driver and has never let me down once, being utterly reliable and solid in the 150 miles I travel to work each week.

The car comes with the original Japanese owners manual, two keys and alarm fobs, import certificate and a folder full of receipts for the services and work done to the car since it has been in the UK.

The only issue with the car is that it makes a clunking noise when making slow turns at full lock. This only occurs when the car has been driven for over 30 minutes. This is a suspected worn centre differential. The car drives absolutely fine apart from this and doesn't detriment from the driving experience.

I will be extremely sad to see this car go. It has been the best all round car I have ever owned.
