For sale is a '05 Subaru Impreza 2.5rs with an STI motor. The car rides and drives amazing. The reason I am selling it so cheap, is because it needs some body work like paint, a front bumper, and some small dents here and there. The car itself only has 67k miles on it and only 7k on the new STI motor w/ ARP headbolts (basically just broken in). The car does have the c.e.l on for a P0447 if I can remember right, which has nothing to do with the motor swap or running of the engine. It is an “Evap.” (evaporative) code for emissions which sets for the same reason if your gas cap was loose. The STI motor comes with the turbo setup, which I have, but isn’t installed yet. It’s about a $1,000-$3,000 kit, which includes the 3" Turbo-back Chrome exhaust, top-mount intercooler (like an STI), wastegate, blow-off valve, Turbo, fuel pump, and the injectors which are already installed. The interior is black and flawless, it’s an auto, but don’t let that fool you, it’s that’s the strongest transmission subaru makes, since the 5 speeds are practically made out of glass. The car has a CLEAN Title. Kelly Blue Book values this car at $9,700 in perfect condition, nearly $10,000, which is double what I’m asking!!! And that doesn’t even include the brand new, just broken in STI motor, full 3" chrome exhaust, and a Complete turbo-setup that I’m throwing in with it! This car is fun, fast, and All-Wheel drive safe! Don’t miss this chance for an amazing car. I need the room and don’t have the time. YOU need an amazing new car, that is a Subaru! So again, this is what makes a Subaru, a Subaru: Air Conditioning All-Wheel Drive (AWD) Tilt Wheel Dual Front Air Bags Power Steering Cruise Control ABS (4-Wheel) CD player w/ AM/FM Radio Power Windows Power Door Locks PLUS on top of that you get!!: Completely new Subaru WRX STI block mounted to 2.5RS heads (single cam instead of Sti: twin cam) w/ ARP headbolts to tolerate more boost (8:1 compression turbo motor. Still runs and drives regularly though) COMPLETE Turbo-setup w/ top-mount intercooler, the turbo itself, turbo piping, wastegate, blow-off valve, fuel pump, injectors New 3" Chrome Turbo-back exhaust Tanabe coilovers/shocks&springs all around ![http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m247/mtbikingking/Subaru%2025RS/IMG_0299.jpg](http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m247/mtbikingking/Subaru%2025RS/IMG_0299.jpg) ![http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m247/mtbikingking/Subaru%2025RS/l_20d1a2dcb1d0613e908aa3d81e828a68.jpg](http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m247/mtbikingking/Subaru%2025RS/l_20d1a2dcb1d0613e908aa3d81e828a68.jpg) ![http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m247/mtbikingking/Subaru%2025RS/l_2dfed70af465356f5ba6c008dd4c6dd6.jpg](http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m247/mtbikingking/Subaru%2025RS/l_2dfed70af465356f5ba6c008dd4c6dd6.jpg) ![http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m247/mtbikingking/Subaru%2025RS/IMG_0570.jpg](http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m247/mtbikingking/Subaru%2025RS/IMG_0570.jpg) ![http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m247/mtbikingking/Subaru%2025RS/IMG_0568.jpg](http://i106.photobucket.com/albums/m247/mtbikingking/Subaru%2025RS/IMG_0568.jpg) PM if truly interested. No low-ballers, the price has already been “low-balled” to $4900 cash, which is a First come, First serve basis. Thx for looking! ---

Someone buy this and I’ll do a custom tune on it for free! Only cost will be the $100 dyno rental charge at Moon Performance. Consider it my Shift economic stimulus 🙂 Cheers and GLWS whoever you are… 🙂 ---

But Tom’s shenanigans are cheeky and fun. Travis’ shenanigans are cruel, and tragic. Which makes them not really shenanigans at all. Evil shenanigans. ---
