so i passed a 04' WRX 2.0T at a local dealer this afternoon, and had to try it out!
thing has some G@damn power, very snappy! i think i fell in love

anyway, thats way out of my price range so im driving a 99 2.5GT 5MT for the night tonight, they let me take it for a night! suckers! no really, its a sweet car, i wish i could afford it, but screw the 12K price tag for a car with 80K miles. also has a front driver side wheel bearing making some noise, and the pass side headlight is out so im just driving it for the evening, enjoying the ride

i took some pics and a video or two behind the wheel at 50mph. ill upload them [pics] if anyone expresses some interest in them.

hell with it heres a pic of her

Take off any parts you can use and replace them with the parts from your car

i think i might buy a late 90's gt pretty soon, i want something a little newer. And naturally i plan on eventually dropping a legacy turbo engine into it . How strong is the gt 5mt compared to the legacy turbo's?


oops... thread hijack. my bad.

a friend of mine said the same thing BAC i opened the hood and it was like he was at a yard sale...lol, i could use this, and that, and this would swap out for that perfectly....it was amuzing listening to him go lol.

im no tsure how the 2.5GT legacy holds up, i havent been in a EJ22T in about a year now, but i will say the GT didnt hold a candle to the 04 WRX impreza 2.0T....but i know it did 0-60 pretty damn well, and i also love the way it shifts, there almost no lag in between gears, i got used to the clutch exremely quickly. overall though, i think i could find the same car for a few thou cheaper.

i sure do miss the AWD drifts, they just dont seem the same in a FWD auto. i pulled a couple nice ones on some dirt roads i grew up beating GL's on, it was like i never missed a beat. i think after this summer i might splurge and give in to the "man" and sink my soul in debt.

theres a white 97 gt near me with 81000 miles for 8400. my friend was lucky enough to find a 98 gt 5mt with leather for like 12k a couple months ago, its a pretty slick car. i want the leather, does anybody know if its hard to find a gt leather interior?

Heh, that's great.

They were gonna let me take a Forrester XT overnight when I when to test drive it.

That woulda been a big mistake
