Default subie 2.5i

im going to be getting a subie 2.5i after the new year. ive been looking for parts for it but i keep getting every year except 06-07. i was wondering what the difference was between 03-05 other then the body design. and if any parts from 03-05 would work on an 07. any help would be great thanks.

Most of the chassis parts should be the same, but the engine is slightly different. Call up a shop that specializes in Suby parts, they'll tell you the differences. My GF has a 2.5i but I don't know all the specifics of her car vs. the 04-05 yet.

Are you thinking of any parts in particular? I would think most Intake, header, exhaust ect would be the same as earlier 2.5s. Try nasioc, they have a place just the 2.5 na guys.

that should be the same. The changes in the 06/07 are significant but subtle if that makes any sense. It's nothing that changes the majority of design and fitments for aftermarket parts.

oh, and refer to my sig for how i feel about NASIOC.

I agree about Nasioc, there seems to be a lot of armchair experts whose first real car is a Suby, so now everyone is a performance car expert.. It's more of a religion (cult?) than a real source of Suby info.
