Up for sale is my 1998 Impreza wagon I picked up not too long ago.  My original intentions for the car were possibly do a hybrid build it and have it be a daily that gets driven to the track.  But I cant afford to keep two swapped cars.  So one of them has to go. Clean Title is in hand! I am the 3rd owner of the car.

Anyways it has the following-

90k miles on 2004 WRX EJ205 swap done by Torres Performance.
Exedy stage 2 clutch
Blouch 18g 7cm no shaft play no more than 1k
Big tmic

120k miles on 2001 rs tranny

Full front and rear 2004 wrx brakes, calipers, front and rear subframes, endlinks, and sway bars
SS brake lines
hawk hps pads
JIC magic Coilovers
04 Wrx rims painted custom bronze/gunmetal with sparkle flake

Iwire Merged harness
Cobb accessport v2 with EFi tune by sti mikey
Tan leather interior in great condition- also have 1 driver side 01 rs seat to go with
6k hids
Pioneer faceplate radio with usb and aux ports
accordion shift boot
Kart boy SS
WRX e brake handle

2.5 Rs hood w/ black leather hood bra
JDM GF8 Tail lights
JDM wrx mid wing
JDM GF8 top wing ( uninstalled, needs paint. authentic)
JDM v6 grill w/ Rare green I badge

It made 273 whp back in December 2012 at efi logics with a 7 psi wastegate spring.  Get the correct 14 psi spring and the car should have no issue making 300 whp if not a little more.  

The car does smoke a little bit under boost, Mike said its most likely the piston rings wearing out.  However, it does not effect anything else. The car still runs and idles fine.  There are no knocks, leaks, ticks, or CEL's.
The coils are riding pretty harsh, I would recommend replacing them.  Previous owner installed aluminum lugs, I would also recommend replacing those as I dont trust them.  I have a stock set I can include if i can find them.  I love the wagon and wish I could keep her!!  But like I said, my GC needs to get fixed and I cant afford to put 93 in two cars.

The car is dirty in these pics but I figure its better than nothing for the time being.  This weekend when I get a little free time I plan to wash and wax the car up really nice and also vacuum the inside.  Until then, here are the current pics

I also have front and rear rs bumpers, 4 white and tan OBS doors, and 1 white L hood to go with the car.  The front bumper has a v6 lip as well.  The car has alot of work put into it and runs solid, the swap was done right and so was the harness.  The car moves great and surprises alot of people.  Whoever gets it is going to have a great daily, or a great track car!  I'm going to ask 10,000 for everything.  Only considering cash or paypal payment at this time with a deposit due at time of winning bid.  ABSOLUTELY NO TRADES.  You can reach me via PM or for fastest response shoot me a txt at 203-848-seven nine three six. Thanks for taking the time to view my thread. :)

2018 Subaru WRX and WRX STI pair updated looks with performance upgrades

Thu, Jan 5 2017

For 2018, Subaru has given the WRX and WRX STI a mild refresh on the outside, and a few significant tweaks under the skin. Starting with the exterior, the lower grille openings on both models have been enlarged and given a bit of extra black trim for a more aggressive look. In fact, the change is a bit reminiscent of the dearly departed Mitsubishi Evo, with the black trim of the lower center grille extending to the bottom of the bumper. The WRX Limited and all STI models also get turning LED headlights, and the STI gets bigger 19-inch wheels. The interior also features subtle tweaks including a larger screen in the instrument panel for all models, as well as thicker door glass and foam in the windshield header to the make the car quieter. Both models also now come with roof rack mounting brackets, a new rear armrest with cupholders, and, according to Subaru, improved interior materials. And the WRX and STI are also now available with eight-way power adjustable Recaro seats. The Recaros are standard on the top trim STI, optional on the standard STI, and available in the new Performance Package for WRX models. This brings us to perhaps the biggest update, that aforementioned WRX Performance Package. In addition to the Recaro seats, it comes with upgraded brake pads covered in bright red calipers. The package also eliminates the moonroof, which hardcore enthusiasts know will save weight up high. The STI gets a notable brake upgrade. New Brembo brakes feature six-piston calipers at the front, and two-piston units at the back, and they're all painted a vivid yellow hue. Those calipers act on bigger, drilled rotors using equally enlarged brake pads. Subaru also retuned the car's Driver Controlled Center Differential (DCCD). Both the WRX and STI also have retuned suspension all around. If this all sounds great to you, you should be able to pick one up at your local Subaru dealer this spring. Related Video:

The Toyota GT86 Shooting Brake Concept is real

Fri, May 6 2016

As a two-door wagon the shooting brake exists at the unusual but captivating intersection between practicality and sportiness. This Toyota GT86 Shooting Brake Concept is no different – it's a standard GT86, with no mechanical alterations save the grafted-on wagonette roof and hatch. It's fully functional, too, having turned some laps on Toyota's test tracks. It even has the blessing of Tetsuya Tada, the father of the Toyota 86 and its Subaru BRZ and (now rebadged) Scion FR-S, who's been protective of the original GT86 concept to the point of strenuously resisting any serious power upgrades. This isn't the first shooting brake concept we've seen from the Toyobaru twins, but it's the first Toyota-badged one. Subaru brought the Cross Sport Design Concept to the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show. So how did the GT86 Shooting Brake Concept happen? The story, as Toyota tells it, involves the company's Australian design team. They created a 1/4-scale clay model of the shooting brake, and showed it to Tada when he visited in late 2014. He was so impressed, Toyota says, that he had his hand-picked craftsman in Japan bring the idea to full-scale fruition. The Australian design team, in the outdoor-loving spirit of their country, immediately thought that the longer roof would be perfect for carrying surfboards and other unwieldy sports equipment. And it would be. Meanwhile, Tada and the rest of the Toyota corporation want to tamp down expectations. It's a design study, the company says, and it's just "testing the waters." Toyota won't rule anything out, and Mazda recently surprised everyone with the MX-5 RF's unusual and attractive targa model. Maybe in a world where Mazda felt confident enough to introduce the RF, Toyota can be daring enough to bring a sporty wagon to the masses. We can hope, and maybe if we all make enough noise together Toyota will make it a reality.

Subaru Viziv Performance STI Concept has us dreaming of a future WRX STI

Fri, Jan 12 2018

Subaru has revealed the Viziv Performance STI Concept at the Tokyo Auto Salon, and it's pretty much what you would expect. It's very closely related to the Viziv Performance Concept from the Tokyo Auto Show last year, but it's been given a bevy of flashy STI parts to make it aggressive. Up front, a deep lip spoiler complements a redesigned front bumper that does away with the two outboard air intakes and opens up the center one. According to a Subaru designer, it improves the cooling and aerodynamics. Having the blocked-off intakes on each side with STI logos is also a nice throwback to old Impreza STI models that often had blank panels with the logo over the foglight openings. Around the side are side skirts, and at the back are small extensions to the same diffuser from the earlier Viziv concept. And of course, there's a massive wing at the back. What's interesting is how much of the normal Viziv remains under the STI logos, decals and wings. The fenders look nearly untouched, and the hood scoop is the same size and shape as the standard concept. Even the exhaust, taillights and headlights are all the same. Then again, between the production WRX and WRX STI, the only real visible differences are the rear wing, wheels and front spoiler. And, if the Viziv Performance concepts preview future WRX and STI models, following that model makes sense. Of course the big differences between WRX and STI models are under the skin. Unfortunately, Subaru doesn't reveal a thing about what hypothetical powertrain is under this STI. Maybe we shouldn't be so surprised though, since the company didn't say anything about the regular one either. Only the use of a flat-four and all-wheel drive are certain. For that matter, even the styling isn't truly certain. While we can hope that the next WRX and WRX STI have the muscular look of these concepts, we have reason to be skeptical. But instead of getting cynical and sad, let's just enjoy this for what it is: a cool STI concept. Related Video:
