Hey Guys I'm planning on selling my STI. I figure I'm still considered a noobie on here since I never post but let me know what you guys think. I feel the price is fair but let me know your opinions. I don't actually plan on selling the car though here but figure it can't hurt to get the word out so thank you for the space.

My car ID on Autotrader is AT-FB02D71

Call if you are interested or know somebody who is, my name is Tanner 712-251-0908. Or shoot me a PM.

Here are some pics








I got sick of uploading so here is my Flickr link. Photos


Please let me know what you guys think!

Thank you!

How much oil does it go through between oil changes?

Could you guys find it on Autotrader with that id? The car has Cobb stage 2 suspension kit, SPT intake, Cobb-turbo back exhaust and the ECU reflashed.

The oil is about 1/3 of a quart low.

I'm looking to sell it because I want to start saving up more money. I would like to buy a house in a year or so.

dsmer06 you also have 303 posts....




That's a little weird.

Have you tried listing the car on the local ricer sites like jdmcity and dragsource?

Are they prone to loosing oil? Why low at only 25K miles?

The us spec motors 2.5L are prone to chugging some oil - not as bad a rotary tho. When tracking them, you have to keep an eye on the oil, else bye-bye rod bearings. Since it happen more than once to locals here with WRX and STi /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif

Thanks for answering that one KC. There are lots of threads on it on NASIOC and people always say "try using this oil instead, I've had good luck with it" but it seems nobody really knows why.

Also keep an extremely close eye on oil pressure. There is a rash of broken oil pickup tubes happening on the STi, LGT, Spec-B, and FXT 2.5L Scoobies.
Pricing has been tough on the 03-06 STi's due to the 06+ WRX having the 2.5L motor. Although the new body and lack of a sedan is bringing up the price on your model.
