    Hey all, I hate to finally be doing this, but I'm inheriting a house and need money to get thr floors resurfaced, buy furnature, etc etc.

    So up for sale goes my very loved 2003 WRX.

    Lets start with some pictures:

    And a Pic with the summer wheels

    Full disclosure, the last three pics are a little older, first one is most recent. I plan to do another batch of pictures once I get the car detailed, but for now this will have to suffice.

    I originally bought the car from Felipe, (4drcivicmaster) who has lurked around these parts on and off, who had most of the mods done to the car.

    The car has about 110k miles, and has had the 100k service done at RS motors).

    Currently the power setup on this car:
    Vf48
    Grimmspeed Up pipe with EWG
    STI intercooler
    deatschwerks 930 injectors
    APS Full catback (This is an amazing sounding car, and still 100% tolerable inside)

    A few of you might remember 4 years ago or so, Jordan at MAP claimed to have made over 320WHP with this setup on E85 on NASIOC, well this is that car. Since then I had it tweaked by Nuke, but here is a link to the old bragging rights thread if you are into that sort of thing:
    http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1820332

    I used the thing every day, and admittedly have babied it pretty heavily. It has sat for about the last 5 weeks since I picked up my new car (first picture) I have taken care to keep it fresh driving it a few miles every week to keep everything in order.

    The car has been turn key reliable the whole time I have owned it, and running E85 year round I have had no problems starting it (coldest day was -22,)

    On top of the engine upgrades she has:
    Kartboy Diff bushings and rear subframe lock up kit.
    Everything but linkage bushings for the shiftier (feels so dang good, much better than the M3)
    Rear H6 brake conversion
    Master cyl brace
    Rallyarmor mudflaps.
    Kenwood HD942U HD radio receiver
    Alpine Type R Subwoofer
    JDM STI front grill and hoodscoop

    The car isn't perfect, and it has a few small rust spots starting on the rear drivers side panel. Additionally as with any Subie the bushings are beyond soft, and should be replaced.

    Currently the car has its stock wheels wrapped in Falken Eurowinter rubber mounted.
    Additionally I have a set of ALT rims that have Perilli P zeros on them (bought from BlackZpremacy) that I will include in the sale. Both sets have decent tread left, and depending on how you drive will last for 1-2 seasons each.

    The car has treated me really well, and I love the thing. I have been sitting on the sale for awhile now trying to think of a way I could keep both it and the M3 but in the end it just isn't feasible with the financial needs of a house overhaul.

    Clean title, no crashes, etc. etc.

    Price: New price 9K with both sets of wheels, 8500 with just one set (your choice).

    NOTE! I am looking for something to serve as a winter vehicle, so partial trade is acceptable. Looking for small trucks, (ford ranger, older Nissan pathfinder, Wrangler) or possible a older Subaru wagon. Not looking for anything more than about 3k.

    If you zoom in on the first picture, you can just see the beginnings of it on the passenger rear where the bumper meets the metal by the wheel well. There also is a little bit on the front fender as well, which it looks like I forgot to mention in OP.

    I will have better pics soon.

    Great car!
    By the way the Jdm hood scoop and grill are genuine and not knock off!
    Vf48 turbo only has 37k miles on it (now)
    Waste gate is a turbosmart 45mm vband.

    Sad to see this car go. You took great care of it!

    Oh balls, this is why you need an edit button.

    Ok, after doing some research it looks like I missed the point in the market when this was worth 10K.

    New price 9K with both sets of wheels, 8500 with just one set (your choice).

    I really hope everyone treats Z Man-13 with the same lack of respect you treat me with. ;)
    Welcome to the club man!
