MUACHi: 95 Impreza Coupe "BADGUY"

got this guy a few months ago and hasnt caused any problems to me at all. amazingly in good shape so i'm loving it, kinda miss the power of my old cars though. i'm mainly a honda person but this guy gave me an opportunity to try something different. its all stock for now, i have other priorities so this guy is in the planning stages until i'm ready.

is it an awd or fwd model?

Welcome to the forum btw, I drive a swapped RS.

it's an AWD model, very low mileage too considering its age (120XXX miles) original owners were an old couple from yosemite.

Any plans for the badguy?

right now i'm looking for the Version 4 STi front bumper. OMFG i can't believe how hard it is to get my hands on it, then i'm gonna start sanding and primering it in a few weeks. i also looking into full coilovers, rear disc conversion, new wheels and tires. oh and i gotta fix that shifter, its loose remember? can't find anything for base model, i'm gonna see if the GC WRX short shifters fit.

are you going for a ver.2 look?

yep! lots of ppl want me to do the RS look, but i'm more of an oldschooler. plus i dont wanna hassle with front conversion. "don't fix it if its not broken." heres the perfect example of my intentions for this car, albiet in BLACK n PURPLE.

ver.2 sti exterior would be absolutely sick. Haven't seen a proper one anywhere around the Fresno area yet except for another guy with a white wagon.

That's a very potential badboy. lol

Dude very nice pick up, how much did you get it for if you don't mind me asking.

And I got my v5-6 bumper from the dealer for 220 brand new, and the front end conversion is actually not that hard, everything bolts right up but the only thing you would have to mod is the front bumper beam.

If you ever want to work on your car just hit me up, I have an L as well and so does a few of my other friends, so you'll fit right in.

I know this guy who's selling his 01 rs oem front bumper for 150 picked up here in Fresno. I don't know if you may be interested in it..?

Hey! how the hell was i supposed to know what existed and didnt existed? and how does anyone know unless theyve tracked down every rsx here. lol. i see someone who says they got one and it seems realish, then i'll say it is. lol

lol actually that was my first car, it was just a base 03 five speed. i had a full type r exterior done, and was waiting for the type r swap when.... well, lets just say it got totalled. i loved that car and miss it much, but dont think i'll get another one anytime soon.

as for the rs front, im considering it at this point because its so ridiculously hard to get my hands on a v2-4 front bumper. the cheapest dealers around are on ebay and even THEY want $300+ for it. i'm gonna have to go ahead on get started on my bodywork without the bumper for now. dont feel like spending money yet because i'm getting my new bike soon. i'll hit you guys up if i'm feeling up to it, the rs front i mean.


fyi - this was my first car:

younger brother crashed it, its complicated :lol!:

had a quick run to shaver with xxgxx and decide to turn it into a lil shoot:

I have an oem ver.5/6 bumper that I'm willing to sell to you for DIRT cheap if you wanna buy it. Only cons is that it's cut for FMIC and has a slight crack in the center. Putting a lip hides the crack though or you can just have a autobody guy repair it for you.

Was gonna give it to paichi but she has a syms replica bumper that she'll put on.

can i get some pix of it? at this point im considering it cuz i cant get the v2 bumper for a good price

i don't have pics of the crack or anything like that, but the pics of the bumper is in my build thread.

oh yea, that one. you dont have any lips for it do you? would i need a different bumper support? pm the price and i'll let you know.

xxgxx know who i am...i can help out and repair the front bumper for you if you want...

i think ur subaru is the one i was going to pick up a while ago from cl. not sure but it looks exactly like that one...hmmmm lol
