Up for sale is my MY97 Subaru WRX, a mechanically immaculate example of one.

Only tasteful modifications on this one. A close friend of mine is an ex Capital Subaru mechanic and WRX enthusiast, and helped me pick this example out of many.

I have owned this car for one year, after buying it from a mature Sydney owner. Reason for selling is I am looking to calm down from the "0 – 100 in less than 6 seconds" acceleration and looking for something a little easy on the fuel. I am interested in swapping for a stock, low kilometres, Mazda NB MX-5 with cash either way.

The car is always fed premium oil (only 98+ octane goes in him) and serviced at a Subaru specialist (Subaroo Servicing Mitchell). I have all service records, and receipts for all work done to prove it.

The Good:

  • New Radiator


  • New 3 " turbo back exhaust with 2.5" tip (because of noise)


  • Well below average kms for its age


  • 17" rims


The Bad:

  • Minor stone chips on bonnet


  • Scrapes and scruffs found on cars of this age


If you are interested, give me a call any time. If I am sleeping/at work/driving I will get back to you as soon as I can. Only specialists touch her.

Price is 12990 negotiable. Located in Canberra

No test pilots please. Genuine buyers only.

Call Benn on 0404 362 655

Would you be interested in swaps for a R33 gtst?

Look in my topics.

If everyone could ignore the tattered Nardi steering wheel, it has since been replaced with a nice "drift" steering wheel (nice and chucky like an M3's, but not to heckticzzzzz) but I haven't the time to take pictures.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
