February 16, 200917 yr And went new-gen... Meet my new daily driver for while I'm dishing out the "Evil rust shall abide here no more" treatment on the Brat... 2000 2.5RS sedan. 5spd, 128k miles, single owner vehicle fresh from Columbia SC.
February 16, 200917 yr That`s a Nice & Super Clean Lookin` impreza! ... ... I Like it! Your Other Subies are Nice Lookin` too! What you wanna do with the Brat?
February 16, 200917 yr Thanks for sharing the pictures. I love that last one. Seems to be a nice one, and even has the oem wheels. Great cars in that last picture, Subaru would be proud of that. bh
February 16, 200917 yr Author Thanks fellas! @Loyale 2.7 Turbo, the Brat is going to get put up in the garage, floor pans replaced, rocker panels replaced, rear wheel wells replaced, front subframes repaired, new rear shocks, probably a newer low mileage EA81 along with an EA82 5spd swap. @BH, yeah Subaru oughta cut me a check for advertisements like that!! I've even got a Subaru banner in the garage above the RS' parking spot.

February 16, 200917 yr Nice! So we are up to three BRP 2.5RS now! I and Durania have the 2 dr coupe models!! You'll love it, just watch the head gaskets!
February 16, 200917 yr Author Nice! So we are up to three BRP 2.5RS now! I and Durania have the 2 dr coupe models!! You'll love it, just watch the head gaskets! Yeah, planning on swapping them out for a set of STi HG's pretty quick Lets see if we can 't test those HG's on the route to 100acre woods rally ! ! If you think you're game
February 16, 200917 yr Yeah, planning on swapping them out for a set of STi HG's pretty quick If you think you're game Actually that's what I was told, use Subaru OEM STI head gaskets and they should be stronger and bump up the compression ratio a little for more torque. I will be doing mine within the next 2 months
February 17, 200917 yr Hey nice one, always liked the Imprezas interior/seats! my ant had a 98 OBS turbo, I loved how it felt! (And no, she's not a Subaru person, nor a car loving type Poor subie was drivin' hard and never taking care of) Anyhoo sound like you got the work to do on the Brat, you gonna post pics of the progress from time to time? yeah. SUBARU would be proud! I like the banner, were'd you pick it up? -Tom
February 17, 200917 yr Thanks for the honorable mention. I have not had a chance to take more pictures of mine because of the crappy weather. You got real lucky to find a BRP sedan in 5 speed, what I originally wanted but settled for a coupe instead. I'm up to 102k on my old girl and should be getting timing belt changed when income tax comes in and my STi catback put on this week. Edited February 17, 200917 yr by Durania
February 17, 200917 yr The coupe' is just as cool looking! Love how the reflections look on the side...

I've even got a Subaru banner in the garage above the RS' parking spot. cool take some pics of the front subframe repair. in the future i was going to explore the fesability of a complete cut out and rebuild of a floor and subframe, these cars are getting hard to find , in rust free condition, i have three wagons with this problem
February 17, 200917 yr Author You got real lucky to find a BRP sedan in 5 speed, what I originally wanted but settled for a coupe instead. ARRRGHHH!!! I wanted a Coupe and settled for the Sedan!! Swapsies?? LOL
February 17, 200917 yr swapparoo....the Roo. I bet the 4door 5spd has lower production numbers by far. I like the Green ones best, as that was the special order color. still looking for a green 5spd 2dr, for my ej22t from my 92 to go into.
February 17, 200917 yr ok so I found a 2000 rs 4dr. Has some minor scratch's and some interior damage, drivers seat torn some tears in the pass. side door panel (look like finger nail marks..) they're askin 4900....what did everyone give for their rs?
February 18, 200917 yr This needs to be renamed the Impreza owner's thread. No sh1t, all these pics make me want one!!!! LOL -Tom
