Hmm. I kind of feel like I should wait longer for an STI, but I don't wanna wait! It could be another couple of years before I could afford one, I want to get back into a scooby asap and get tinkering. I have however taken all you have said on board.

I dont think they'll take a motorbike as part. Ex, not many places do!

What parts brake? Is a better clutch than the standard a good option. Obviously dont want a whole new gearbox

I've just spoken the to the dealer, it is a 5 speed. Considering its lightness compared to my old 2010 saloon wrx sti maybe 300bhp is enough. What do you mean "let go" as in brake?

Yeah, so I've noticed. My idea is try and give it a STI look and feel, but more so. Got a list of planned mods, not even got the car yet! Car is 5950, was thinking of spending as near to 4k on mods over the next couple of years including. Improved suspension all round, bigger better brakes, already got 18 inch sti wheels they'll be first thing on! Induction kit, blow off valve, remap, front mounted intercooler (unless it stays at around the 350bhp mark). Mud flaps and sti spoiler and an ht autos lip kit, i reckon I could get it all and the car done for less than 10K. I'm not looking for a track car, just a decent road car

I much prefer the look of the hawkeye. Not too keen on the blob. am I allowed to post the ad in here? Cant find a good 2.0 ltr turbo im afraid. Not for want of trying! I know the wrx is a smaller turbo but the extra 500ccs should give me more space to tune with, shouldnt it? Im planning to get it around the 350 mark

After selling my 2010 wrx sti as it cost a bomb to run I decided to get my full bike license. A combination of not being able to use the bike much and not wanting to kill myslef I am now on the verge of getting a scooby once again. As I am bit of a pauper, I've found a 2006 wrx with 54k on the clock. Its a 2.5 ltr turbo 6 speed with 230bhp and completely standard! All for a shade under 6k. I cant afford an sti so my intention is to buy this and over the year or two modify it is this a sensible purchase? I cant wait to get back into the world of imprezas and just wish I didnt have to leave it in the first place.

HT Autos? think they do CF, FG and standard plastic

Its about time Mark Higgins had a crack isn't it?

After the recent rather handy photobucket tutorial post I thought I would post some pictures of my recent trip to Catalunya more specifically Girona and some from Japfest. Hope you enjoy!

I didn't go for a ride in it, but I couldn't help but notice that compared to all the other on track cars the Pro R WRX STI was insanely quick. I'm sure the driver helps, but it looked rapid around the track. Anyone know what it's make up is? It used to be just a 340R with various Pro-R updates to bushes, hoses, springs etc..

Pissing it down here last few days. Polished it on Monday. Since then its rained and been pood on will give it a going over tomorrow night before driving to swindon

Tommi is tommi. Who can touch him? Though id like to see the stig in a wrx sti at the ring

Great video, hopefully it will be a long running series. Some points: 1. Good to see Subaru are still top of their game in the world of rallying on the world(ish) stage. 2. Good to see two brits doing well over there. 3. Not sure about these BMX riders and skateborders jumping into rally cars. But if they do will, then why not?! 4. Craig Drew has an amazing accent!

Like some of the others on here, I just used water. Seems to work fine, but there maybe better options.
