98 Subaru Impreza RS 2.5 Low miles, New motor
Hi Guys. This car is located in Norfolk Va
You're looking at a 1998 Subaru Impreza RS 2.5 2 door coupe. A fairly rare and highly desirable car. There were only 1,680 Impreza RS's made in 98 and only 995 of those were 5sp MT. This Car is Rally Blue Pearl w/original Gold Wheels (Goldies)
There is only 79,242 miles on this car and the engine has been replaced with a rebuilt 2.5 liter DOHC motor from Colorado Component Rebuilders by Koby Subaru in Mobile AL at 72,764 miles. So there's only 6,478 miles on the new motor.
A new clutch was put in at that time and the flywheel was resurfaced as well as an all new cooling system and radiator.
All other maintainence on this car has always been maintained by Roughton/Perry Subaru and Bayview BP in Norfolk Va. Complete documentaion is available.
Slight body damage on Passenger side door and lower sill.
Small accident in Jan 2000. @14,604 miles. New LT trailing arm - New LT Macpherson Strut - New LT axle carrier
Replaced timing belt tensioner @ 75,311 miles.
A/C isn't working but I'm sure it's the button on the dash only.
Struts are the originals and really should be replaced.
I have 5 spare tires with one mounted on a goldie.
Window tinting is 55% fronts and 35% rear VA state legal limits.
Modifications:
FHI 20mm Rear Anti-roll bar
Eichbach Prokit Springs
Goodrich Stainless Steel Brake Lines
Brembo Rotors and new pads last summer
Z-1 Performance Braided Clutch Line
Maniac Dead pedal
Kartboy Short Shifter
Kartboy Shifter Bushings
STI Motor mounts
MRT Axle-back Muffler with dual outlet
Prodrive Floomats
Prodrive Shift Knob
Custom Upolstered Headrests w/Prodrive Logo
Oakos Automotive Speed Bleeders
WRX Pedal Covers
WRX Grab Handles
MOMO Leather Shift Boot
Rockford Fosgate Coaxial Door Speakers
Sony Coaxial Speakers in rear deck
Sony Component Tweeters
Clear Corner Lenses
Clear Front Turn Signal Lenses
Clear Side Marker Lenses
Indiglo Whitefaced Dashboard Gauges
Headlight Covers
Subaru Sunroof Wind Deflector
Snorklectomy
Many spare parts including a dual headlight conversion kit. SYMS Replica fiberglass side sills. Stock anti-roll bar, stock axle-back muffler
I'm Mitch you can contact me at mitchell_k_jones@yahoo.com
I'm looking to get at least $5,000.00
