This is a custom Subaru Brat. I bought two of them when I was in Alaska and was able to make one good one out of the parts from the other. I get a lot of cool stories and thumbs up everywhere I go with it. This has been my daily driver for the past 6 years. I have done all the mods myself. The only things that have ever gone bad for me were the starter and alternator. I have put new wheel bearings and seals, axle shafts, and larger radiator for the larger engine. It has a fuel injected 2.2 out of a 1995 wagon with 170hp. The stock engine only had half of that. The engine had 80,000 on it when I removed it from the wagon. I have since put about 3000 miles/year. I work only 6 miles from home and ride my motorcycle often. It has 6 lug hubs with new Chevy 6 lug wheels and tires. I put a 5 speed out of a 1989 wagon in it. The Brat never came with a 5 speed. This transmission is a 4x4. The original 4 speed comes with the truck as well. The 4 speed has 2hi, 4hi and 4low the 5 speed has just 2hi and 2low. The linkage in the 5 speed is getting loose and will need some attention soon but still works fine. It comes with 3 sets of wheels and tires. One set of U255's with Strata 255/35ZR20 tires 75% tread left, the second set is Good year Wranglers P235/75R15 on new black rims with 90% tread left and the third set were studded tires I used in Alaska. I removed the studs and the tires are almost bald now but the wheels are good.

Extra parts that come with this truck are:

hood

4sp transmission

driveshaft

T-tops

T-top seals

Rear axle

Various trim pieces

This is NOT a rust free machine. It has rust forming on the fenders and under the doors. The floor is usually the first to go on these but this one is in great shape.

Vehicle is for sale locally and will end auction early if vehicle is sold locally.

Buyer is responsible for vehicle shipping or pickup.

If full buy it now is payed I will throw in a tow dolly so you can transport easier.

Please feel free to ask any questions.

Watch Mark Higgins whomp the Isle of Man TT course in a 2015 WRX STI

Fri, 20 Jun 2014

Subaru has made another trip to the infamous Isle of Man TT, bringing along its all-new 2015 Subaru WRX STI. The goal? Best the already impressive time set by rally ace Mark Higgins and the 2011 Impreza WRX STI on the same swirling, high-paced ribbon of tarmac. Of course, you already know how that went.
What we didn't know when the story first broke, though, was that Subaru was monitoring data. Specifically, Higgins' data. He was fitted with a monitor that would record his heart rate, breaths, skin temperature and the g forces he was faced with as he lapped the 37-plus-mile road course. While Higgins and Co. were aiming to best their 2011 time (19:56.7), this year's effort also saw a push to beat the time of the sidecar racers.
You can get a recap of the entire event, with plenty of footage and data from Higgins' lap in the exhilarating video below. Take a look.

Subaru reveals WRX STI racecar for 24 Hours of N"urburgring [w/video]

Fri, 10 Jan 2014

Subaru has announced that it will be running a race-spec version of the upcoming WRX STI in the 24-hour race at the Nürburgring in June. The 2014 race will mark the seventh year in a row that Subaru has campaigned a car at the day-long Ring race, but this will be the first race outing for the new WRX STI, which isn't set to debut until next week at the Detroit Auto Show.
Subaru will be in the SP3T class, for turbocharged engines displacing 1.75 to 2.0 liters, and is targeting its third class win, after finishing second last year. To do that, it'll be going toe-to-toe with racing versions of cars from Audi, Volkswagen and Seat.
The team will be led by Hideharu Tatsumi, who was responsible for last year's team. Drivers will include Toshihiro Yoshida and Kouta Sasaki, while another pair of European drivers will be announced at a later date.

Subaru getting creative in these two very different WRX STI viral videos

Fri, 07 Mar 2014

Subaru is getting into viral videos with two new, radically different shorts to promote the 2015 WRX STI; both are pretty entertaining. They are certainly more interesting, from an enthusiast perspective, than the company's dog-oriented advertising campaign and sponsorship of the Puppy Bowl.
The first promotes a new grindhouse-style short film that Subaru is launching, which is cheekily called The Ride of Her Life, and it previews the full deal due on March 13. While It's just a glimpse at the moment, if Subaru really leans into the cheesy, 1970s-style, then the full video could be really enjoyable.
The second video is a new take on an idea we've seen before but is still very cool. There might be some digital trickery going on in some of the "Stick bomb" shots, but the result is still exciting. Plus, the STI's Nürburgring livery is quite attractive. Scroll down to check them both out and tell us which you prefer in Comments.
