2003 MY04 79V Subaru Forester XT


Price $14,500 ono


Colour: Champaign (Gold)
Interior Colour Black
Transmission 4 speed sport Auto
Body: 4 door 5 seat plus back cabin space
Drive Type 4x4
Engine: 4 cylinder Premium Unleaded Turbo Intercooled 2.5 L
Reg Expiry Mid July 2013

Kilometres: 100,632
Brief Comments: Extremely good condition both inside and out, always garaged. Very low kilometers, at least 50,000km’s less than any other 2003 or 2004’s on the market. Slightly Modified but never thrashed or boosted– See list of modifications below for details. I have owned this car since 2008, bought it with about 92,000 km's on it.

There are some VERY minor hail dents on the bonnet (4 or 5 total on the entire car) from a hail storm in Perth.

Car has always been serviced, next due for service at 103,000km’s.

Aftermarket modifications include:

  • 3” X-Force turbo back exhaust with twin tip oval muffler
  • STi top mount inter cooler and BOV (off a Spec-C rally car)
  • Samco silicon hose bits
  • Pedder’s Sports Ryder suspension
  • 22mm Whiteline rear sway bar
  • Front strut brace
  • Turbo beanie
  • Hypertech cold air intake (in guard pod filter)
  • Pete Mac blanking plate
  • 18 x 8 Apec Inspiri wheels

Reason for sale: This car is no longer being driven as my R33 GTR has become my daily driver. The Forester has been sitting garaged and not driven for over a year so it is now time to sell it.

The following pictures were taken when we lived in Queensland, I will take some recent pictures in the next couple of days.

However the car is in the same condition as it has barely been driven. When we were in Queensland for example it was in a secure lockup garage as we worked on an island and only got across to the mainland on occasion.

I sold my SG9 XT for $13,500 and that had 201,000Kms. So this should go with your discounted price and half the Kms.

One of our OzFoz Members has upgraded his > 283awKw without much fuss :)

Yes, his OzFoz User Name is "PCXT".

Had lunch with him 2 weeks ago - discussing OzFoz Tech Nights

I'll try and find a link to his build after I get this damn court report finished. I hate doing them but worth $880 (with zero outlay).

Your XT has the metal air pump.

Mine had a plastic one that permitted leakage of air into cylinder 1 and maybe 2 leading to corrosion if not rectified quickly. It would throw those two codes and impair cruise control.

So your XT never had that problem.

And by 2008, Subaru had gone back to a metal pump.

I have had the P (something) code for manifold 02 sensor. I played around with the 02 sensor wire and it went away.

Was told to reflash to ECU rather than replace the 02 sensor, hence why I was considering the reflash, so it doesn't come back!
