For sale is a 2008 Subaru WRX hatchback with 132,750 miles on the body. The engine was replaced in the summer with a JDM EJ255 (2.5 liter) with 35,000 miles. Picture of invoice included in the posting costing $8k.

When the motor was swapped, it was upgraded with many parts to include:

• Full x-force headers and turbo back exhaust (loud and opens it up giving it the ultimate subie rumble) ($2000)
• IAG air oil separator ($500)
• Mishimoto radiator ($400)
• Mishimoto intake ($400)
• Mishimoto oil cooler ($700 not installed)
• GFB hybrid blow off valve ($250)
• Grumpeed top mount intercooler ($1000)
• Hella horns
• Stage 3 clutch
• Cobb access port with custom tune
• Aftermarket wheels
• Rallyarmour flaps
• Aftermarket back up camera
• Aftermarket head unit with Apple CarPlay
• New front end links and cabin air filter with alignment
• New fuel pump and seals

Car just passed emissions and I have a full inspection report for it. If you’re looking for a well built Subaru to build on, or keep reliable, this is the one you are looking for. Clutch is a little heavy being a stage 3, but is easy once used to it.

Tires have 10/32 left and brakes have 10mm all around. Only thing the car could use in the future is some suspension work (can show in the inspection) as well as a muffler (personal choice if too loud).

Asking $9,000 obo

Car has over 6k in parts and that doesn’t include the custom tune and newer motor with installation.

Reason for selling is I need left foot surgery (clutch foot) so also open to trade for an automatic car.
