I really don't have the time to repair the transmission issue so it makes more sense to sell this. Still drive it everyday without any issues except the rattling noise from the transmission; input shaft bearing and the rear ball bearing on the main shaft rattles and needs to be replaced. No grinds on any gear. Just rattling noise.

You can either replace the bearings or buy a used low mileage transmission for about $500-800.

Here is a thread created by another member who had the exact same issue : Whirring noise with clutch engaged - Silent when disengaged - Subaru Impreza GC8 & RS Forum & Community: RS25.com

UPDATE Price Drop $7500 (non negotiable) buyer fixes transmision (see transmission issue above) (P1 lip not included but I will provide a legit V6 replica lip which is on my RS)

The car is super reliable and I would not hesitate to drive it anywhere.
As far as the exterior it still looks very nice, but it's a daily driver so don't expect it to be in brand new condition.

Some things that could be updated are:
Windshield (no cracks but pitted slightly)
Rear wiper motor stopped working (easy fix)
Passenger fender key mark
A small part of the edge of pass. front bumper was rubbed by another car and paint came off which I temporarily touched up with paint pen
Passenger front window rolls up not as quick as driver side
Needs new floor mats
Foot pedal rubber on clutch and brake have ripped off (easy fix)


Asking price is $7500(not negotiable so don't ask)
Lowballers will be ignored!!!!

Whoever picks this up won't be disappointed. Its a real solid car and these types of cars are getting harder to find. Mechanically there are no other issue besides what was described above. I have priced the car reasonably and almost everything on the ej25d swap is new. Also consider the exterior upgrades and hours one would have to invest to transform a car in the current state my car is in. Everything was done right without rush or hack jobs, or flat black dirty engine bay.

If you’re serious and interested send a private message and I will get back to you asap. Lowballers, Sh** talkers and haters will be ignored. Don't waste your time by posting negative comments because I don't care or won't be offended by them.

Thank you for your time.

First of all. I wanted to say good job with this. It's looks great! Second of all. And this is just a suggestion. If you haven't done it already, I would. Post this on NASIOC it will be gone really quickly. From another fellow Impreza owner good luck GLWS.

Thanks. I actually posted it on Nasioc. I think its not selling because it's the end of the year and nobody has any money to spend. I've recently just posted it on non-subaru website to have a bigger market. Its a great car and still drive it everyday. God willing if I find the time I will fix it and keep it.
