Blake's 2000 Impreza RS Build
1 - 5 of 5 Posts
Recently brought home a 2000 Impreza 2.5RS in Ridge Blue Pearl. Bought it from the original owner and it has 112k on the clock. Completely stock for the moment. One of the foglights is busted, but besides that it's in beautiful condition! I'll have pictures tomorrow.
First Modifications are Hella 500FF's, Kartboy Brackets and DDMTuning 55W 8K HID's.
Don't plan on doing too much with it, as I'm using it as a commuter car for college. Just recently sold my 2004 Honda Accord that I did alot of work to so I'm not new to the tuning world and have grown up around cars most my life.
Here's the previous whip

Did a coolant flush today. Hopefully will postpone any headgasket issues for a while.
Doing spark plugs/wires, PCV Valve, fuel filter and O2 sensor next. None of these have ever been replaced and the "high mileage maintenance" thread suggested to replace those.
