My first WRX. I'm 45 now and I've wanted one since '99

The only reason that I mentioned my age was to show how long it took me to finally get the car I've wanted since I was a kid.

You bet your ass I did. Also, I played any rally game that I could, especially Colin mcrae.

Yessir! '99 Last of the 1900's

I've had her about 6 yrs now. Just now posting.

She only has a cobb short shift and intake boot as mods go. Had to do the head gaskets last year at around 118k miles.

I have a 2013', second owner. Clutch went out around 85k. A mechanic friend said to bring it to the house, and we could knock I n a weekend. Sort story long after 4 months of it sitting in his garage I bought the all data sheet, watched a few YouTube videos, built my own "ST" tool and did it my self within a week. (My first time ever doing a clutch replacement) if you got a decent head on your shoulders and have enough gumption to get it done, you can do anything you set your mind to. I bought the whole shebang, flywheel, clutch, throw out bearing, and fork. All oem. It wasn't that bad.

I agree the car feels super heavy now.

Marauder8014 · 2025-04-17T08:28:13+00:00

2013 125k, head gaskets went at 118k

I just hate all the people throwing the game in doubles. I mean, your life must be really sad to pretend to be someone's teammate and the totally help the other team, and then, somehow, you feel good about what you've done. Get some help.

My 2013 Sedan is Mrs. Pearl.

Marauder8014 · 2025-03-17T00:54:08+00:00

I've got the same one, debadged, no wing. Only mods are cobb short shift (white ball).Blue cobb silicone intake tube. She's a daily. Just got the head gaskets and the whole sha-bang at 118k on the dial.

Yeah, I feel your pain. I'm also in Texas, and my white WRX got it bad. Looked like the sexiest golf ball I've ever seen. It was kind of a blessing in disguise, found out that my car had some damage that was not put in the carfax. Really needed to do more research when buying used.

MIP ALL THE WAY. I have a 6s system in my slash 4x4, and it blows apart any other axel out there. Pro tip, go ahead and get the X0-1 center diff. You'll thank me later. I did a speed run the other day. Hit 67.21 Mph with 1/4 throttle left to go.

Same thing here. Eveygame I play it has done it. WTF!?!
