    That looks like it. FWIW, it's obviously heavily modified as the owner said it has a timing chain. Could be an EZ or an FB swap though :p

    I just noticed this thread.....my story is a little convoluted.


    I was interested in an '84 Audi 4000S that my uncle was trying to sell me in highschool (2002ish). And I started talking to a guy at the SCCA display at the Auto Show who was rallying a 4000S, and he mentioned the MN Audi Yahoo group. I began hanging around there, and when I got my first Subaru ('85 GL wagon), I started posting about it on the newly-created MNAudi.com forums, and Todd told me about MNSubaru (as I recall, Todd was hosting both sites at the time).

    In 2004, I was working at Best Buy in Minnetonka, and a few of the members here were meeting at Ridgedale shortly before my shift started to caravan to a RallyX. So I swung in and saw my first STi (Matt's, IIRC. I think Russ was there, too), and met my first MNSubaru members. Wasn't long before I started coming to Firestone.

    found via internet search, my 06 is great, been serviced at dealer since new, but now I am looking for resources/upgrades that will keep my Impreza running and perform for many more years.

    I'm surprised that circle jerk isn't an option for how you heard about MN Subaru.....

    Yeah, I've owned a few Toys in my time. A Celica back in the early 1980s and couple of Camrys in the 90s. I even looked at a 2018 Rav4 and a 2019 Highlander before buying the new Forester the other day. The wife did not like the Rav4 but did like the Highlander. I didn't want the Highlander because of the higher price and much lower fuel mileage. When she saw the Forester Sport she was sold as much as I was.

    It was written with pink permanent marker on a truckstop toilet stall wall, with a bunch of tick marks next to it.
