Car Description:
I’ve owned this car for almost 5 years now and it has been my favorite one of all. I originally got the car back during covid and immediately got to work to make it my dream build of an OEM+ first gen GF8. The car currently has all GD wrx suspension and brakes, the original 3.9 5 speed, 2.5rs side skirts, a GD wrx wagon wing, and a jdm bug eye sti front lip. It’s currently sitting on RS wheels wrapped in RE71RS tires for some great grip. The engine is a EJ257 stock bottom end with 98 legacy 25D heads, a TDO4L, GD downpipe and catback. Only running it on wastegate it peaks at 7psi and has completely woken the car up, it’s an absolute blast to drive. I originally got the car in CT and built it with lots of help from my friends, it since been with me in Ohio, and now Florida. I’ve road tripped this thing all around, putting nearly 100,000 miles on it since I’ve owned it, and it’s been excellent. It was my daily driver for quite some time but now it’s got an easier life and gets the love it deserves, just taking it out on nice days, car shows, and the occasional back road rip. Hope you enjoy!
