Default Newbie to subi

Hi,

Am new to subaru's just bought my first which is a white 1997 wrx automatic lol ( for the burger in one hand) she is in very good condition body, trim, mechanically apart from the rotten intake pipe, cracked vacuum lines and strut tops that are shagged, had to cut and polish paint, detail interior as previous owner lived in York (orange dust everywhere) and didn't deserve the car, only mod is a full 3 inch exhaust with custom (huge dump pipe) 3 inch high flow cat, is the only 97 model i've ever seen with factory drivers side airbag ( jan 97)

Have built many different project vehicles over the years, mainly toyota's, gt4 celicas, mr2's, mx83 cressida's, z20 soarers with different configurations of engines, also many ls1 powered vehicles, but wanted something smaller, lighter and of course all wheel drive grip.

Hope to learn from other peoples experience, advice in regards to subi's and source valuable bits and bobs for the old girl.

Could only attach one picture fro some reason, will do one at a time lol.

Thanks
Troy
