    Over the past couple weeks I started hearing some gear chatter in 1st gear. So I drained some gear oil and out came a tooth. So, 1st gear is in pretty bad shape. The car still drives even in 1st gear. Every other gear is quite. There are no other issues with this car. This is mostly a feeler until I figure out what it will cost me to fix it and if I can afford it right now or not. This car has been well taken care of. Sythetic oil changes every 3,000 miles. Recently changed the tranny and rear diff oil :rolleyes: in the last 2 weeks (Extra S 75w-90). Most Mods added in the last 6 months

    Nuke tune

    Drivetrain:
    SPT clutch and flywheel

    Suspension/handling:
    Tein lowering springs
    Cobb 24mm (adjustable) rear swaybar with solid mounts

    Brakes:
    Stoptech slotted and drilled rotors (10,000 miles)

    Blacked out OEM headlights
    Rally Armor Mudflaps
    painted sideskirts
    50% tint all around
    Debadged Trunk

    No rust, no dings/dents, only a few very light scratches here and there.

    I think that's everything...

    Also forgot catless STi Uppipe, Carbon Fiber dash inserts (not the overlay kind), SPT Short Shifter, Rubber Subaru mats, Karboy shifting knob and Alignment done by "Jeff the Alignment Guy"

    I can include the stock BCS and a stage 2 tune that has the stock boost map if you are interested in autocross and want to stay in STX

    Shoot me an offer!

    Just found out a stock transmission rebuild for this car would be about $1000 from andrewtech or around $3500 for PPG gears. So if anyone is interested in taking the time to send the tranny off to andrewtech this would be a good buy!! All offers considered!

    Someone could potentially by the WRX and that totalled STi and do a swap! The guy selling the STi seems very flexible on the price. I would do it, but I can't afford to buy the parts car or have the time to complete the swap.

    alright, so looks like I'm going to go through with the STi swap! Unless I get a really good offer!
