I wouldn't buy a 99 with heaps of k's ....
I bought a 99 sti 2 door and the 5 speed was on the way out with teeth coming out of the box . Motor was built and has lasted perfectly though. I would buy a bug eye or something so that you get the 6 speed and brembo's and AVCS which are the REAL bonuses of STI parts. Unless you budget to fit ppg to the gearbox I wouldn't buy the car with 150,000k's. On my 2 door which has 158,000 the speedo stopped working and the power steering and altenator have both needed replacement/rebuilding. So all up maybe $3500 worth of fixing stuff that had just plain worn out.

I think the puk clutch on the stock 5 speed might have had something to do with it.
I wasn't suggesting everyones speedo would go... but its an example of the kinda small problems that crop up on the older gc8's. Still I am happy I have my car now as its got all the good bits but without the heavy weight of the newer sti's.

Personally I think a bug sti or peanut, if you can afford it, would be the more 'economic value'. The 2 doors have that whole collectors item feel about em but goodies versus money spent just doesn't add up if the sentimental value of a 2 door doesn't float your boat. Interior is 34234114234534 times better in a GD series too. |

once u fit front and rear strut braces and a 4 point cusco underbody brace the old Gc8 stops flexing like paris hilton getting pumped.
Mines feels pretty tight, maybe the 2 doors are stiffer.
