Yes I'm new, no I didn't search.

 

Recently totaled my car. getting 11k Looking for an LGT 2005-2007 Preferably auto , but I'd think about a manual too Not planning to do much more than maybe intake, exhaust, tune Just need it for a peppy 4door Daily driver, awd > fwd lol other than the 100,000 timing belt change, what sort of problems should I look out for?

Only real difference from the 05-06 to the 07 that I remember reading (I have been looking for a while for a second car) was that the 07 has folding rest seats and the 05-06 doesn't.n

I just like that BL body style with those head/tail lights and grille

 

Thanks guys.

Just started looking, mostly 05's at any price is what im finding. A few fairly local around 10-12k

A clean looking white 05 130k mi. For $9k ...500 miles a way

 

Also, my laptop got killed in the wreck so im doing all this on my phone. So sorry for

Spelling and stuff. Haha

I'd be on the hunt for a 07 LGT SpecB

 

but that's like almost double the price... around 20k

yeah, a lot harder to find but would be nice.

 

those are only 6spd right?

Buy my wagon. 05 5EAT with 70xxx miles. Well maintained with records, stage 2 with cobb downpipe and sti up pipe, transmission cooler / thermostat, custom e-tune from Cryo.

 

I'm only half serious about selling it and you'd have to fly to VA and drive back or have it shipped, but if I had a buyer I would consider selling it off to go on the hunt for a 5MT wagon.

"Bullet-proof" your OEM TMIC! <<Buy your kit here>>

 

Not currently in stock :(

i plan on going to test drive one in Puente Hills Subie dealer has this weekend, make sure I'm happy with it...but i still gotta wait to get my settlement check before i can buy anything...saw a Craigs list in Riverside for one, might look into that too.

 

and hoping to get my ss back tomorrow and see whats salvageable, start tearing into it

 

 

 

is there a decent gain from just a tune on 91?

 

whats the "max" safe power and boost on a stock block?

how much hp/tq can the 5EAT handle?
