Stuartie's v1 build
Looks good. My version 3 wrx had the same treatment a couple of years ago and it’s great to see another classic saved from the dreaded rot.

Buying my first scoobie
Larry makes a good point When I was looking for my first WRX I went for the 2.0 rather than the 2.5 mainly because of the scary stories of ringland failure, but the main thing to check is how well it’s been looked after with servicing and being run on 99ron fuel preferably (Tesco momentum or shell v-power) You should be able to get a really nice wrx for your budget.

Lack of Levorg posts
Cool looking car! I do really like the Levorg only I wish the name was better and I agree that it’s a shame an sti variant never came here

Anti roll bar advice
Ah I understand, that makes sense. I’ve also got some sti trailing arms to fit to compliment the existing sti camber arms so it should be pretty good.

First time Subaru buyer
Hi mate I know others will be able to give better advice but from my experience it’s important to get information on the service intervals and what grade of oil has been used, 5w40 is usually a decent start for a turbo Subaru preferably with a genuine black jdm oil filter. Also has it been run on 99ron fuel (Tesco momentum or Shell V-power) they contain anti knock agents that are quite vital. from my experience the rear arches are important to check for any signs of rust as it’s important to nip it in the bud before it becomes a big job. That’s a start at least. I hope that’s helpful

Hi everyone I‘be recently purchased a 24mm whiteline rear antiroll bar for my version 3 wrx gc8. Would it be a good call to also upgrade the front to a 22mm and also fit heavy duty mounts for the rear? Its currently on eibach 35mm lowering springs. Thanks for your help. hope everyone is safe.- SOLD - Clearout

Nice car mate. Andy Forrest is a great engine tuner/mapper. Also uprating the brakes could be something to think about.- More stuff
