STi , buy or not ?
Hi Guys
I'm new on this Forum. I'm a Subaru Lover and some months ago I sold my Subaru Impreza GT MY99. Now I'd like to buy a new STi but I need your help for a good choice. I want to buy a 2006-2007 STi ( 2.5l Turbo ) but I heard some strange things about its EJ25 Engine. There are many people who blown their STi's engines in 15-20'000 kms and the car was full stock ( as they say ) and now I'm a lil bit afraid about that. The problem ( as I know ) are the Pistons that have not a good quality. I'll find a second hand car so ...I'm worried. Is true what people say about these Pistons ? Anyway I'll make no any Tuning on my car ...no Ecu Tuning, no Bigger Turbo, no Higher Boostpressure .....nothing, just a full stock car. I dont want an older ( 02-03-04-05 ) STi ..so the choice is, 06-07 STi or Evo IX. What's your suggestion guys ? What should I buy ? I hope you can help me , becouse I'm really confused at the moment. Thank You So Much !!!!!! ![]() |

Re: STi , buy or not ?
Correct me if I am wrong, but at 15-20,000K's it would still be under warranty so who gives a rat's A if it has a heart attack. Unless of course you did do something silly that would void your warranty.
I dare suggest no-one here is going to suggest an evo as a good solution. PS Does anyone reckon I can claim warranty on my genuine 35,000 K's RA rally car? Only driven to church on Sundays, it's just that church is a long way down a dirt road and we're always in a hurry.... ![]() |
