    Yeah i had to replace heads on my 99 2.5rs, the newer Ej257 motors arent as bad but still you have to watch them once you get past 100-130k

    Well, my neighbors friend showed up in his 06 STi. Reminded me of how much i loved them when i saw them on the road when i was younger. and sitting in them at car shows. It felt pretty sentimental. Ive never felt that with the G. So im pretty sold on the STi. Lol i feel like im already passionate about them and ive never owned one.

    Anyways, thanks for all the input guys. Really helped a lot. My truck is officially up for sale today.
