Did SPEC IV sell the Evo 4 yet? That would be a nice pickup for a uni student.

Mine was:

Coilovers, Wheels, Tires, Brakes, Stereo, Respray, STi Wing, ViPEC, 05 STi Intercooler, Cusco Brake Stopper, Rear STi Seats, Headers, UpPipe, Tinting, VF28 Turbo, Retrim of Leathers, Defi Controller + Gauges, Floor Mats, Fuel Pump, 3 Re-Tunes, a wheel bearing, ~$1200 a year in servicing and repairs.

Lesson Learned.

Actually, the best lesson to learn, is how to fix shit and service on your own.

BUT I WANNA GO FAST NOOOWWWWW!!!

Nah Thanks a lot guys, there's a lot of food for thought there. If you fellas have any mates selling a nicely looked after rex, evo, even a GTS-T or s-chassis i'd love to hear about it. Although I've been a subie fanboy my whole life i do try to keep an open mind haha

What do people think about those Toyota Caldinia's? They are Jap Import AWD Turbo's right? Cost about the same with way low KM's I think?

Lol Cam....Hard way to spend $18k?

My 00 STI cost me less than that to build up, including my 'built' 207 & buying another blue steel mica version 6 (wagon) shell for all 4 door shells/glass & front guards.

Still the fastest, most reliable & best handling car I've owned to date....Sadly missed.

I hear ya Rossco!

I've had later model Sti's, got to say I love my V6 still, it would owe me $30K+

But hey it's my money

Dale, if you can, spend a bit more for a pristine GC8, if you can find one!
