The time has finally come for me to sell my 2004 Impreza WRX STi. I've absolutely loved owning this car, but it is time to get something a bit more economical and practical, since our family is growing. In a nutshell, the only reason I'm selling is to get out from under the car payment, and the fact that it requires 93 octane and I do A LOT of driving. I'm in the process of purchasing a bigger commuter car which gets better mileage and doesn't require premium. Otherwise, I'd love to keep this car. Anyway, here is the run down...

The Bad:
- Driver side ball joint recently started making noise. I have the new Moog joint which I will include with the purchase.
- The usual small dings/rock chips from daily driving, with one rock chip that cracked a portion of paint on the front bumper. (just the paint, not the bumper itself)

The Good:
- I replaced the brakes with cross drilled/slotted rotors and ceramic pads within the last year. I also have a set of Hawk HPS pads and stainless brake lines I'll include with the purchase for your next brake job (although that won't be required for some time)
- The Continental DWS tires are new with less than 4k miles on them.
- Aligned at the time the new tires were mounted and balanced.
- New belts and battery installed in the fall of last year.
- Freshly charged A/C less than one year ago, done by Matthews.
- Headlights have been replaced with new 2005 lights which are in excellent condition, and I have a spare light assembly which I'll include.
- I have a pitch stop mount for the engine, which although is not installed will be included.
- Car was professionally tuned by Innovative Tuning in Buffalo, and made 308awhp/318awtq on their mustang dyno (I have the dyno sheet). In reality, that translates to around 330awhp and 340awtq.


The car really is a solid car with very few mechanical needs. Essentially, the only thing I can think of is the driver side ball joint. I drove it down to the Outer Banks for a wedding last year and averaged 29mpg on the highway. Needless to say, it is excellent in the snow with the new DWS tires. I was just underneath it checking things over a few hours ago, and there are no leaks anywhere. In addition, the car really doesn't consume anything (oil wise) in between changes. It should be mentioned that this 04 STi has an engine and turbocharger from a 2007 STi. Although the mileage can't truly be verified, that engine/turbo allegedly had 35k on it when I purchased the vehicle. The swap was verified by Innovative up in Buffalo NY, and you're more than welcome to confirm that as well.

As can be seen in the pics, overall the car is in very good condition. As far as modifications go, it has a Perrin front mount intercooler, ACT clutch, Greddy turboback exhaust, cone air filter (not sure of brand), and a great tune from Innovative. To be clear, the idle is at 1500 RPMs in the picture of the gauge cluster because I'd just started the car. It will settle down to less than 1000 RPMs when warm. Also, all of the power windows work just fine. I simply had the driver/passenger window down during the pictures to let some heat out. The miles are low for the year, with just a little over 90k on the clock. Please, no low ballers, joy riders, or tire kickers. Don't waste my time and yours. ***SERIOUS BUYERS ONLY***!! Do NOT bid unless you intend to buy. If you are new to eBay and/or have 0 feedback, PLEASE contact me before bidding. Lastly, the buyer will be responsible for either picking up the car or arranging for shipment. I will work with you to get the car where it needs to go (local shipping point), if you are planning on having it shipped. If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask. Thanks for looking, and happy bidding!

2023 Japan Mobility Show Mega Photo Gallery: All the highlights and reveals from Tokyo

Fri, Oct 27 2023

The 2023 Japan Mobility Show managed to serve up a surprise heap of exciting and futuristic designs and production reveals. Our staff was on the ground in Tokyo for this year's show, where we captured not just all of the latest automotive trends, but some genuinely weird and fascinating stuff.  Browse: Some Delightful Oddities of the 2023 Japan Mobility Show But on to the cars. This year's show featured introductions from Daihatsu, Honda, Lexus, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Subaru, Suzuki and Toyota. Some are weird; some are wild; most are probably destined to change significantly before production or merely fade into the void with the rest of the industry's vaporware, but if even a few of these make it to showrooms, we'll consider it a win. Scroll on down for our live galleries of each of the show's major debuts (and cars we're only now seeing in person for the first time).

Cosworth announces Power Packages for Subaru BRZ, Scion FR-S with up to 380 hp [w/video]

Sat, 31 May 2014

Cosworth stands on the list of the most famous engine tuners in the world with its DFV engine engine dominating Formula One for a time in the '70s. So when it teases plans to take on the FA20 engine from Subaru and Toyota found in the BRZ, Scion FR-S and Toyota GT86 abroad, our interest is indeed piqued. Cosworth is promising to take the 2.0-liter, four-cylinder boxer engine from its current 200 horsepower all the way to 325 hp and even 380 hp in a future track version through a series of staged Power Packages. At the moment, only the first stage is available that takes the mill to a potent 230 hp.
Cosworth says that its new strategy is to offer its upgrades in kits rather than individually so that it can be sure that everything works and fits when owners receive it. The Stage 1 Power Package emphasizes helping the FA20 breathe better and includes a nearly complete replacement for the stock exhaust system. There is a sports exhaust with four-inch, diagonally cut, polished tips and Y-shaped muffler, an overpipe front pipe with a spherical resonator and a new manifold header that is 22 percent lighter the standard unit. In addition to that, the kit comes with a software reflash, low temperature thermostat, Cosworth badge and plaque.
The stage one kit is available now, and stages two and three go on sale later this summer, according to its website. Autoblog contacted Cosworth for pricing information for the kits. We will update this story, if we hear back. The company also released a video showing off the exhaust upgrades. Scroll down to watch it and read the full release, below.

Scion FR-S Convertible (in Toyota GT86 form) spied in South Africa

Fri, 15 Feb 2013

Though the eventual existence of a convertible version of the Toyota GT86 (and its Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ versions for America) is a no-brainer, we've yet to get a glimpse of the real-deal car until now.
Spotted in Cape Town, South Africa, of all places, this completely undisguised GT86 convertible seems to be in a remarkably advanced state of development. The image seen here was obviously sniped from quite a distance and without the aid of a powerful lens, but we can still make out a production-ready looking piece of rear bodywork for the convertible top to hide away in, as well as a functioning trunk lid. It's hard to make out with any certainty, based on this evidence, but there does seem to be space retained behind the front seats for two, small rear chairs.
With the first car spotted, we'd expect to seem some more and better images of it flow through in the near future, and if not, Toyota has already confirmed a concept version for next month's Geneva Motor Show, dubbed FT-86 Open, so stay tuned. For now, click through to the FT86Club.com forum to have a slightly closer look at the images.
