Description

Subaru Forester STI 2.5 (JDM) I bought this car in 2022. I've done approximately 11-12k miles in my ownership. Oil and filter have been replaced every 6 months despite the low mileage. Current MOT until jan 2026. Tax isn't a killer, I need to check exact cost. Main things completed in my ownership include: 30.9.22 / 137,240Oil/Filter Service (5w40 Millers CFS NT+ and black JDM filter) 4.10.22 / 137,321Gearbox and rear diff fluids changed (motul and millers) 22.10.22Full underbody protection (rust inhibitor, 2 coats raptor bed liner) 26.10.22 / 137,420timing belt kit and crack pulley, 6speed UJ bushes change to rectify gear change slop 8.11.22 / 137,590alignment setup 13.12.22 / 138,241Power steering pump replaced. Front and rear brakes stripped/cleaned 22.4.23 / 139,996Oil/Filter Service (5w40 Millers CFS NT+ and black JDM filter) 8.7.23 front and rear OEM brembo discs and pads fitted, air filter and fuel filter changed 16.10.23 / 143,086Oil/Filter Service (5w40 Millers CFS NT+ and black JDM filter) 23.2.24 / 144,319Vehicle check over.

I've never had it mapped myself, but there is evidence of this running around 310bhp in the paperwork. It's never given me any problems in my ownership beyond what you would expect (wear tear items). Starts every time and has been very reliable for me. Garmin 65w dash cam fitted which I'll leave in, along with the yakima whispbar/roofbars. Paintwork could do with TLC as may be expected for a 2004 car, but it cleans up well still despite this. I had bought a whiteline front and rear anti roll bar kit and new mount kit - not yet fitted/brand new. Currently cost around 700 even with whiteline's current 15% off. Never got round to fitting this, was going to begin refreshing some of the parts but other things took priority. I will include this kit if I receive asking price, otherwise I'll be selling this on separately to recoup cost. Happy for anyone to view, test drives with me driving only.
