I’ll be replacing the engine in LUMPYY soon, but I’m realizing I need a truck now more than ever, now that I live in a house in the country. I truly love this car, it’s gotten me through allot of rough times, and I’ve spend about 3k replacing worn interior and engine items to bring it back to good running condition
Here’s the quick breakdown
2002 Subaru WRX Wagon
170k on body
140k on new engine, perfect compression, all maintenance done
stance gr+ coilovers
20% tint all around
17 inch gunmetal summer wheels
16 inch oem winter wheels with snows
JDM active aero grill
black housing headlights
hidden Alpine Type R 10" sub with built false floor
Pioneer AVIC-Z1 in dash navi with Z3 upgrade
Wideband 02 with Subiegal cubby pod
Kartboy shift knob
Perrin front endlinks
F & R strut tower bars
Newer black/grey wagon rear seats
full grounding kit
big 3 power kit
Hella supertones
ERZ catless up/down pipes
going to be replacing with a low mileage OEM turbo as well
TGV deletes with phenolic spacers (codes removed via opensource ecu)
I’m probably forgetting things, but this has been my reliable daily. Only reason for engine replacement is my father put in conventional oil in a Rotella car and it blew the oil through the turbo seals (turbo has been replaced)
Here’s some pics (doesn’t show the drop or summer wheels) :
Basically I need a full size truck with a quad cab or equiv. I’ve got two little ones to think of now, and seeing as how I’m 6’2, a regular or extended cab doesn’t allow enough leg room in the rear
Just seeing if I’m out of my gourd to try and ask for this in trade
MAN if you didnt need a full sized, I have a 1998 x cab 4wd ranger 118kmi, lots of recent replacment parts, all bj’s, hub, calipers, tires, solid frame, decent body just a few spots of suirface rust from shitty body work from prior owner… rest of its is solid. (might actual be respraying it next month for shits) Drive it all the time, never let me down and I would/am keeping it until it sells or what ever since it is in such good shape.
I would trade straight up for ya if you were interested.
You will definetly be able to find somebody that will trade you something. I’m not sure if you’ll really be happy with what you can find as a straight up trade since you listed safety and comfort for your 2 kids as a prime concern. Throw it on CL and see what happens. Best of luck.
