$15,500 negotiable.

Rego till 27/03/2011.

97XXX kms, runs like new.

PM for VERY recent pictures. Taken 31/3/2010.

Male car enthusiast owner, extremely well taken care of, comes with servicing log book, never tracked or raced, and rarely driven.

Car is perfectly reliable, never broken down, never in an accident, symmetrical AWD for any weather conditions and grip, starts up fine everytime no matter what the weather is like, fuel economical.

Non smoker, smoking in car is prohibited, strict passenger rules when inside car, frequent cleaner, conservative driving style, always parked up inside driveway. Large boot capacity.

Serviced regularly (comes with servicing log book) with Mobil 1 Fully Synthetic SuperSyn engine oil, Fully Synthetic transmission fluid, and super DOT4 brake fluid. Always refuelled with Shell V-Power for better engine preservance and cleaning. New battery replaced ~2000kms ago.

Selling due to need of money for moving out.

Very nice colour (gotta have blue with Subaru just like red with Ferrari) with complementary colour matched RSGT 18" gold rims (RRP $1400). Many compliments.

Custom cold air intake (RRP $150) with K&N air filter panel (RRP $120) proven to be effective from others (read around) for better power, response, and fuel economy.

NGK laser platinum spark plugs (RRP $96) and NGK ignition leads (RRP $100) (best spark plugs and ignition leads you can get for Imprezas) for cleaner combustion, better response, better fuel economy, and slight power increase. All replaced ~5000km ago.

Magnaflow twin tip muffler (RRP $400) for nice driving aggressive sound tone and slightly less restrictive exhaust. Stock muffler included with car incase modified noise is undesired.

Strut bars/towers installed front and rear (RRP $100) for car body rigidy and possibly safety.

Whiteline front and rear sway bar set (RRP $600) installed for enthusiastic driving style and turning feel. 20mm front bar, 24mm adjustable rear bar with all bushings, links, and mounts. Stock front sway bar included with car. WRX rear control arms installed to support rear sway bar. Stock control arms included with car.

Pedders lowered and hardened springs installed for better driving enthusiasm, feel, and appearance but not too low that it's impractical.

Arctic blue low beam bulbs, yellow JDM fog lights, electric blue LED number plate lights. Very sexy at night (and day).

No rice mods, basically stock exterior. A lot of time and money invested in this car to keep it tip top condition.

    • To be fair passengers who aren't silly and have been in proper fast cars have often been pretty impressed once you hit 4th gear   
    • I suppose that's true. Barring almost any situation, I'll never sell so what the market does is kind of irrelevant to me. It's possible I'd make most of my money back. That spreadsheet I mentioned? Maybe I could make back more than what the car's total costs thus far are, but the parts and all that is possibly a different story... Thanks for reading. It was certainly a good moment and just makes the ties to the car that much stronger. It's exciting that the option will be there to bring it over, however I have some plans with a shop that may end up keeping the car there longer, not sure. Coupled with the fact I want to move there and haven't solidified any path yet. So in a way, it feels like I'm in a limbo state that is uncertain; time will tell.
    • No worries, everything worked out in the end. I just wanted to make the point that it doesn't matter where it comes from (I.E Australia), it can be broken or improperly built. I would still purchase from these companies in the future. B2R - Not certain how that finished, this was on a car I wired a few things and street tuned. I know the owner ended up shipping the motor back to Australia for investigation. Hopefully some of it is covered under warranty.  Turbosmart - I always pressure test everything that goes on my car. It's a habit from my career in oil and gas. I run two 40mm's and both had major leaks from the actuator to exhaust portion through the shaft. I returned both, they shipped me back two and one was leaking and the other had a 38mm top (40mm gate with 38mm actuator cap, no idea how that happens). Eventually after a lot of back and forth I found myself with two non-leaking gates. I believe this happens a lot more then people would like to believe but you would never know if you don't pressure test them prior to installation. Crank Motorsport - Issued a full refund and let me keep the seat rails. I turned them into scrap metal for other projects. GKTech - Shipped me out a replacement and asked that I modify it as per my idea and that they would do the same for a future revision. ATP - Can just needed a large shim to bolt up properly.  Haltech - They started an actual proper Beta channel for firmware's a few months back and stopped using the general public for testing. I'm now much happier.  Speedtek - f**k Speedtek. I would love to watch them burn.     
    • I've got a Turbosmart wastegate, ATP catch can, many GK Tech parts and Haltech everything. Everything's been perfect, sorry to hear your experience wasn't the same
