SamK New Member 12 Member For: 9y 11m 7d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 24/05/15 10:03 PM Share Posted 24/05/15 10:03 PM Vehicle is a 2014 model, so it should have warranty. I was thinking only standard turbo car mods, ie Turboback exhaust and intake. Being on Subaru forums introduced me to shockworks coilovers and I am happy to see they make kits for an FG. So I'll probably do some suspension mods aswell. Don't really have a power figure in mind, because these cars make ridiculous amounts of power very quickly. When I was thinking of buying a Subaru, I knew what mods I needed to make a certain amount of power.

T3's and some good pads. I use Bendix street road track very good but dusty. What ever mods you do always look at getting a tune.

SamK New Member 12 Member For: 9y 11m 7d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 24/05/15 11:46 PM Share Posted 24/05/15 11:46 PM I think it might be an ex highway. It has brembo's on it. Yeah I'll be upgrading brakes. Regarding the mods, I will get a tune after every mod is collected and installed.

boost69 Donating Members 737 Member For: 19y 11m 13d Posted 25/05/15 12:08 AM Share Posted 25/05/15 12:08 AM Yeah that's a chaser...if it's a 2014 model then you should be picking it up for around 21K max...give or take $500...(white one)If its a 2013 model white...about the 20K mark give or take $500.A nice coloured one should go for around 22K, is its a 2013 or 2014...Late 2012 models go even cheaper...Looks like prices have eased a bit at the moment, as they were going for dearer prices a few months back...

Nice opportunity those things, wish we had them fitted with Brembos over here in WA on the BFs, mine might have had it from day dot! Mine's ex highway and has taken a total flogging from me over the last 230,000km I've put on it. Just keep it serviced well and let it warm up/cool down.
