This car was purchased from Nate Wade Subaru in Salt Lake City in 2006. I am the original owner. Vehicle was a semi daily driver for about 2 years. It was a typical stage 2 car, Cobb Accessport, TBE, suspension goodies etc. During that time, the car was driven in the snow less than 5 times. Oil was changed every 3k miles. Car did not see any form of racing or abusive driving.

2008, car underwent a fairly major facelift. Rallysportdirect helped plan the build of the car as well as source all after market parts. Solid Autoworks, a great shop in Salt Lake, with a sterling reputation completed installation of all parts. They have also overseen all maintenance during the life of the car, as well as a recent compression leak-down test. 

Local body shop, Kindig It Design, installed body pieces and completely prepped and repainted the exterior of the car. Fitment of after market body pieces are OEM quality. Factory paint code was used, but with a much thicker higher quality paint. No painting in engine bay or interior of car. This body shop is known for their award winning SEMA cars and hot rod cover cars. 

Christian from Cobb tuning layed down base tune to use during proper motor break in period. With use of CobbAccessport EM, a few different maps were made to use. John Shafer of Akuma Motorsports, who was with Cobb tuning at the time, was the last person to tune the car. With race gas and meth, the car made 520 awhp at 4300 feet above sea level, on a mustang dyno. The only thing holding the car back was the fuel system. At this point, I was pretty much done chasing power and dumping money into the car. I had the option to upgrade the fuel system, but the car already had plenty of power and would forever be beyond my driving capabilities. 

The car has remained unchanged over the last ~4 years. Since the big build, it has never seen snow. It has remained garaged and covered, sometimes for long periods of time. Care was taken to preserve integrity of fluids during periods of sitting in the garage. All regular maintenance has been kept up with and performed at professional shop, Solid Auto. Vehicle has been respected and kept up with, body and interior are in near flawless condition. Engine bay is very clean, as is the underbody. The car recently was in the shop for regular service and thoroughly inspected. Compression-leakdown test revealed 0% compression loss in 3 cylinders and 1% loss in one. I attended one open track session at Miller Motorsports Park, participating in a GT Live event. This was by no means wheel to wheel racing, rather hot laps for the uninitiated to driving a road course. Car performed perfectly. The driver, could have used a lot of work.  Other than this occasion, car has NEVER been launched, dragged or abused. Many would say I never even drive the car like it is meant to be driven. No street racing or other freeway bull**** either. Car has been run on pump gas and no meth, for 99% of the time since it was done being built. I wish I could stomach paying for race gas all the time.

I am selling this car because I lost the desire and interest in modified cars a few years ago. The car has sentimental value and I debated on parting with it for awhile. I have a small family now and I could also put some of the money from the sale of it towards future education. Finding it a good home, with somebody who would really enjoy it would be great. Hopefully someone will appreciate the quality of the parts used and the care taken to maintain it.  If you are familiar with modified imports and after market parts and modifications, you will know that this is a very well put together build.  No corners were cut and nothing was overlooked.  The mindset was to buy nice, not twice.  I am listing it at a price that is honestly considered to be very low, even when you consider that modifications do not add that much to resale value.  The fact of the matter is that this is a $100,000 STi.  Cost of the motor alone was $14k.  That's not something I like to flaunt or even share with my closest friends.  But after the cost of all the parts, professional installation, multiple tuning sessions on the dyno and the cost of the bodywork and paint job, that is an honest assessment.  $30,000 is a straight up steal, especially when you can have a magazine cover car, for less than the price of a new WRX.  This car is ready to be very competitive in road racing events, if you don't mind getting such a pretty car dirty.  It also turns a lot of heads rolling into any car meet.  Someone could do very well with it at car shows.  And if nothing else, it is a blast to just take out for a drive.  The car drives like it's on rails and pulls like a freight train.  You can embarrass plenty of domestic V8 owners and lots of exotic import owners, should you feel so inclined.  A little food for thought, the car will easily surpass 700 hp at sea levels.

2015 Subaru WRX and WRX STI configurator comes online

Thu, 03 Apr 2014

Subaru fans, get your clicking fingers ready - the configurator for both the 2015 WRX and the WRX STI are live on the company's consumer website.
With three trims of the standard WRX and two of the WRX STI available, customers can price out their ideal rally rocket. Aside from choosing a trim level, there's not a whole lot for dreamers to do here. A single interior trim (black) can be paired with a decent spectrum of colors. Each trim level only comes with one optional package, which ranges from $2,000 to $2,500 and includes some combination of navigation, a Harmon/Kardon stereo or push-button start. There are also a number of dealer-installed accessories available, as well.
Hop on over to Subaru's US consumer page, and start building your perfect road-legal rally car.

Subaru recalls new Forester over pedal entrapment fears

Tue, 30 Apr 2013

Pedal entrapment and unintended acceleration are hot-button topics these days, so automakers are always staying alert for potential problems. For Subaru and its newly introduced 2014 Forester, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall due to improperly manufactured floor mats that could become an obstruction for the gas, brake or clutch pedals. The good news, of course, is that even if drivers experience this problem, the 2014 Forester comes standard with brake override.
At issue with the floor mats on 10,137 Forester models built between January and March of this year is that the resin material used on the underside of the mats can curl when exposed to heat. If the leading edge of the driver's mat curls enough, it can come in contact with the pedals making acceleration, braking and shifting more difficult - possibly resulting in a crash. To fix the problem, Subaru is replacing the entire set of floor mats in all of the affected units. The official NHTSA recall notice is posted below.
