I bought my bugeye in 2015 for $900. Had a blown motor, cog idler pulley seized, every valve was bent to shit. Shes amazing now. Best of luck getting it squared away.
Liberty_Hoonigan I just bought a bugeye in similar condition. Bent valves to shit. I’m just going to drop a new block in. Did you do that or take your heads to a machine shop ?
Little late to the party but I just got a bone stock 03 WRX with 139k miles (not even joking has stock everything besides aftermarket taillights and 04 STI spoiler from being in an accident) and I'm way too in love
Just got one for 1360. 2002 with 05 sti front clip and interior and suspension 80k on brand new jdm motor with a bad headgasket... just got one of the heads off and sent to the shop to get machined.. will be getting the other one off .. hopefully driveable soon !
Drop the engine? Why wouldnt you just yank it out of the top and slap it on an engine stand? Makes it much easier to see everything and install things properly
just bought an auto 02 wrx with $5k in mods for $600. Turns out the head gaskets are gone so im going to slap some in and send it. Lady owned it for years and her son had it tuned and stuff. she just drove it like normal lol.
Wow i just picked up a black bug eye about 2 weeks ago i drove it from 29 palms to pomona so roughly 150 miles rpms were high lowered it some sensors are deleted from my computer so in the process of making it better and same thing with my tires my fronts were balded so bought new ones when i was there due to the owner not telling me but other that best decision ever!
Wwell this has cheaper potential than the MRS, let's hope you take care of this one for longer :) subies are good with the obvious intake and exhaust for track day
How much did you pay for it because I'm looking at some cheap wrxs And honestly my big worry is the motor going I'm okay with having problems, the point is to fix it but I don't wanna bite off more than I can chew. I'm fine with other problems, so long as the engine isn't shot or doesn't blow up Even headgaskets don't really scare me, I just don't want a car I can't at least drive sometimes as I work on it

I appreciate how you explained why you got the WRX, and that you agnologed the fact that the C5 was not for you yet. Love the vids!
Thanks, glad you like them!

I like subarus, the one thing that's annoying though is you have to drop the engine to work on it (depending on the type of work obviously).
Yea if you blow your engine
My 2002 impreza cracked the diff case and had to jb weld it

@@Grooove_e really ure thy guy huh u no what he meant gosh some Subaru guys are such tool bags

How much did you pay for it?
Started the video and was excited to see how far it went. Checked the Chanel to see how it went and within a couple videos it’s gone
Unfortunately, yeah :-/
I know you're going to have a lot of fun with that as a track car. I've only driven those a handful of times, but man are they great.
I'm liking it so far!

Well the engine blew in mine.... so I agree with the motor being a concern.
Bugeyes are great
Never would have guessed it
I love bugeyes IMO they’re the best model of you have an Instagram you should contact @bugeyebrigade, they post pics of em
Much love from swva!
Thanks!
Dang, he drove 200 miles to buy a 16 years old car, and here I’m bitching with my 90 miles drive for the same car...
So thats a non sti model correct?
Correct, there was no STI model in America in 2002-2003.
How much
Less than you can afford, pal!
Damn didn't know you are so handsome 😍
MagicPutty haha wtf
