Imo get the normal version Forester. The STi version isn't worth the money. There many Forester which has the converted transmission from 4AT to 5 speed. The STi Forester lacks the DCCD which the WRX STi has. I got the 2004 Forester 2.0XT 4AT. But i got a load of STi and WRX parts installed. WRX Turbo unit, STi intercooler. Decat and the STi style exhaust pipe and K&N drop in air filter, 255l fuel pump and a ECUTek retune. Got around 280bhp at the crank. If you go the WRX STi route. Go for the 2004-2006 Blob eye STi. The gearbox on this gen is the strongest. The GC8 era of WRX had the better forged pistons vs the hypereutectic cast in the later gens but as long you use the correct engine oil and change it regularly. The engine can last for 100k miles before it needs any major overhaul. Mine lasted for over 100k miles before the AT gearbox died on me. Then i junk it for the Subari XV/Crosstrek 1.6L.
crookback i need to sit 4 big size adults and also carry ikea stuffs here. The boot space has been a life saver since i can fit long boxes. Try fitting ikea bed frames boxes in a sedan. I doubt you can fit them.
in the U.S. we got to buy the 2.5 xt in manual without converting, comes with the td04 from a wrx, faster than a wrx from the factory. and all you need to make 280 WHEEL horsepower is sti ecu/cobb accessport, hood scoop, vf39 turbo, sti intercooler, and exhaust. they make more wheel horsepower than an sti when theyre sti parts swapped. im sorry man. 2.0l auto sounds awful. 2 other simple mods and you wind up at almost exactly 300whp
i would get the forester (only if i had the money) because it is super rare and if you ever want / going to sell it as you said it was not made overseas you can sell it for probably twice the price in some other country if the car is in good condition, but the white sti isnt bad at all, go for the forester if you can but the white sti wouldnt be bad for the price.
The wagon is rare find that you might not have the opportunity to get again. At the same time, it's not worth to spend a significant amount more when there's a regular STI available as well.
The Forester STI is very rare, so that is what you are paying for. I added most all the STI bits to my XT. STI Steering rack, full brakes, full Japanese Forester STI suspension. It's been a great car that still drives very well despiyte getting up in the mileage. the only downside is that the body lacks stiffness. Otherwise, the perfect car. (Ok, not in beauty)
I just love the FF old-school end tune Hahaha. Get the impreza. Lighter and more power. But subie have a few weak parts from factory that will create maintenance costs.... I.e the valve cover gaskets, a clip in the central diff assembly. As some said check which years they had a bad engine model etc. If it's been babied it should be fine but since it's a fun car to drive, expect previous owners to have driven it hard a lot (it's ment for it). Check the timing belt wear too and if the car has gotten a ecu tune up otlr a boost increase, as it would have put more wear for a factory car than usual for the milleage. And the closer this year the better too but the price will go up.... I own a 2000 legacy B4 RSK jdm that had 42k on it only. But age took its toll on every rubber hoses and fuel pump and gaskets...... So if it's old it's cheaper, but even with low Mil you will have maintenance costs due to wear and age. If you buy more recent price goes up but better models and less risks weak parts. Subarus are a dream to drive, especially the wrx sti! Good luck! (and do car stickers, everyone want some!)
South Africa, new Zealand and Australia also have the Forester sti. This is also not the only Forester sti that Subaru made they also made Forester sti in the SF chassis which they only produced 800 manual ones
Reverse Orca E46 its just a souped up version of the normal Forester with STi bits and the 6 speed manaual gearbox and Brembo brakes. My own Forester 2.0XT is way cheaper and i got my WRX/STi parts from fellow Subaru owners and you get the same power if not more than the STi version.
Dude I have a 2002 forester SF5 S/TB STi and yes with the EJ Motor. They made more forester sti’s than just the SG9. Again, only made in Japan though not over seas. I had to import mine to Canada. But yeah man love the SG’s as they are much more ballsey.
Suln Ramb sure man. Sorry for the late reply. The differences between the stb and stb sti is the suspension, steering rack, 10more hp I believe and recaro STI seats, black interior, STI body kit and BBS factory wheels and emblems. Only 800 Were made in standard for the STI STB’s and the rest were auto
As a Subaru owner i can say there very reliable and nice to drive. One thought though: Gas milage is terrible so if you get one be prepeared to put up the gas Money, very often. If thats ok then go ahead and buy. The only car i know of that beats it in having worse gas milage is the Mazda RX 7 FD, that car is darn scary in the consumption.
Ugh!!! I'm 4 years late!! I would definitely buy the 3-4000$ white sti , safety it get it all ready and sell it for double, and then go back for the forester sti
I have a 04 Sti Forester in Japan, it's my only car. I don't actually drive every day, but a few times a week, but the extra space inside is great. I have a baby seat in it and I can still fit a ton of stuff in there for beach or costco trips. One thing I will say, it's a little big for a lot of Japan streets, sometimes I have to just nope my way out of a road, because it just won't fit. I'm also slammed on tien suspension, which I wouldn't recommend on the Forester if you daily it in Japan, just adds to the list of roads you can't use. I absolutely love the car though, and for me, I like the 04 one even more than the face-lifted 05+ ones. With more miles, you can find one a lot cheaper than that. I'll sell you mine for 10k lol
That’s a lot for a forester even if it’s a sti if you need space just look at a four door maybe a evolution or just a regular sti. We have them here in Canada and they usually go for like low tens no one really wants it except for the engine
The legacy wagons are dirt cheap in japan and are just as practical. May not be as rare and probably wont increase in value but will do the job in the meantime
Have a 2012 outback 3.6r over 260,000 miles. I know it’s not an sti but wanted to share how lasting Subaru’s can be if you care for them well, and it cost $12,000 us. Japan prices are stupid cheap for old Subaru’s, a bugeye sti here is around $20,000
It would be cool to get one and I think it would definitely appreciate in value over time. There is only 1 in my state in Australia and it recently sold for around $40k AUD.
i think u are supposed to say its not available in your country coz here in my country every soccer mom has it......they surely dont know how special it is but the go for 5k and they are mint not that 13k bullshit ......good man ....awesome channel
Would love to buy a shirt bro, but I’m a xxl. If you ever up the sizes on your shirts I’ll pick up a few. Till then thanks for the content and I can’t wait on the next video
If that’s a 2009 be aware that Subaru had a batch of bad engines back then. I got a 2009 WRX and the engine got a spun bearing two months after I got it. Make sure you get a good warranty if it’s available. I got one and Subaru of America was on the hook for that $10k engine....
playdoh1975 i suspect the previous owner didnt do a regular oil change. That is one cause of the bearings and ringland failures. My Forester was a 2004 drove for over 13 years before i junk the car due to gearbox failure. The engine was sound.
Keep shopping around and soon something will come along. Personally I really like Subaru and I own a 2015 STI. But, you could also go the route on building a basic Forester to the STI level. This way you can take your time financially and build it the way you want it to be. Yes, I understand about the Forester STI being a limited edition and holding it's value. So, good luck and I hope your get your car that you want. I will also buy something in your store also. Great channel you have and I really enjoy seeing the Japanese car meets. If your really into Subaru, I run the Subaru International Owners Group (SIOG) on facebook. Please check me out if your not already in the group. Thanks!!!
You should get sti bugeye but if you find Impreza wrx or sti gc8 that I would get that the rarest one out all of them the 22bsti but get the gc8 for the price
All of my friends that have owned rexxys etc and moved to forester's or similar cars have regret it or not used it for what it's for. Too much money and being debt is not the way to go at all. The normal STIs really aren't that bad on space and I can't see the forester going up in value, especially not in Japan. If people want big people movers they want cheap, economical cars. If they want to lash out they will get a crown wagon or similar, not an old STI - niche market.
I agree that being in debt is not fun, but think about it like this. For easy comparison Let’s say that the car was $12,000, and I planned to save $1000 every month for a year to buy it. A year later, I would buy the car in cash. I would suffer for one year to delay my gratification to buy the car all at once. If I were to take out a loan for that $12,000, buy the car, and pay it off every month for a year, I would be in basically the exact same financial position a year later except I would have already been driving the car that past year and enjoying it, and also have built up better credit for a year. It’s one thing to save up 2-3 months to buy a cheap beater, but as I grow up, I want to drive better, safer cars that I can drive my family around comfortably. Anyway if I bought the Forester STi and decided to sell it at some point, I would sell it wherever it fetched the highest price, probably overseas. Similar condition ones are already fetching 20K here in Japan and I’m pretty confident an authentic JDM STi forester will be highly sought after in a couple years once you can import them to Canada. That is, if I even end up wanting to sell it (if I were to buy it in the first place her is.) But yep, point being is, in life, we go into debt for a lot of things - student loans, mortgages, cars etc. Sure I could buy a beater civic or something really cheap that will last forever, but I’m a car enthusiast like you so sometimes we have to make choices:) Anyway I don’t know why I wrote such a long comment but thank you for watching my content and I hope you have a great day.
Hmmm just my personal opinion I def was not feeling the design of the forester, lol just put a rack on the reg subi, better to not be in debt and kinda glad u didn't get it LOL I will buy a t-shirt but I really want to see you in your dream r34!!!
@@ALBO I also got a 2002 B4 rsk ltd Blitzen with 60000km for $500 just bid often on as much as you can a night. If you are still in japan check it out !
Honestly speaking, sorry but you'd be better off without it. The price, the hassle etc. Unless its your number one dream car, i wouldn't consider you to get it. If its an actual holy grail like a gtr r34, then maybe. Wish you the best on finding the perfect car in the future. Also, keep up the excellent work albo!
Dude str8 up i have an stb which is the same ej but stick sti arent (yes the ej205) and if u paid more than 5000-7000 imported. Im taking less then 100××× like mine had 86000 and thats a decent bit for an impoted foz. Anyways With opi and mechanical included im just saying thats in us too. Maybe consider importing through your northern friends next time save money and theirs cars already here anyways cheers and enjoy your adventure.

The Forester is awesome but, get the cheaper one man. Car payments suck.
He has over 50k subs! He needs to sell 500 shirts... come on guys help this man out! Lol. I'm gonna buy a few. Hope it helps man!
Imo get the normal version Forester. The STi version isn't worth the money. There many Forester which has the converted transmission from 4AT to 5 speed. The STi Forester lacks the DCCD which the WRX STi has.

DriftHunterAlbo hey if you are looking for Subarus you can hit me up.
crookback i need to sit 4 big size adults and also carry ikea stuffs here. The boot space has been a life saver since i can fit long boxes. Try fitting ikea bed frames boxes in a sedan. I doubt you can fit them.
Looks like I'll be needing your help....
I have a 2004 forester 2 L non turbo ... i desperately need parts
in the U.S. we got to buy the 2.5 xt in manual without converting, comes with the td04 from a wrx, faster than a wrx from the factory. and all you need to make 280 WHEEL horsepower is sti ecu/cobb accessport, hood scoop, vf39 turbo, sti intercooler, and exhaust. they make more wheel horsepower than an sti when theyre sti parts swapped. im sorry man. 2.0l auto sounds awful. 2 other simple mods and you wind up at almost exactly 300whp

Considering how rare it is and how amazing the Forester is already, it will be worth the extra money. Go for the Forester STI man.
Some noob sprayed that centre console easy fix. I would get the forester sti any day
The wagon is rare find that you might not have the opportunity to get again. At the same time, it's not worth to spend a significant amount more when there's a regular STI available as well.
GOALS GOALS GOALS!!! all of them I have a Australian delived 2002 sti but love the rareness of the forester
Ohh hey, Fancy seeing you here 😂

The wagon would be your best bet, cool little gadgets and in very nice condition. Especially that it's not available anywhere else
Love my 09 FXT... Wish they had made an STI version for the USA!
my buddy here in the states is building one here piece by piece . he is in love with those .
Totally worth it for the cool plus rarity factors
Take it Albo. It's a gem
Nice video Albo. Unfortunately for me I had a bugeye Sti stolen from me up in Ibaraki. Have to be careful and have good insurance!
Sorry to hear that man!!! That’s terrible.
Next time don't go to Ibaraki ghetto san
I just love the FF old-school end tune Hahaha.

Yeah, the Forester STI Type M
I love the Forester, and have never seen a STI version of it before.
Sell some Windshield banners and stickers and I'll buy in a instant Albo!

The standing desk would have been no issue with the Forester STi!
i fit a two seat loveseat in mine, hatch closed too

Where do ya live man, let’s connect
I'm way out in Kumamoto, do you ever make it out to Kyushu?
STi here with over 100k miles go for the same price 😕
I'd consider a non STI Forester, that generation looks great and will be very practical! Plus you'll save heaps with a WRX or non STI Forester. :)
look into an STi S-402 legacy wagon. lots of space inside and if it's like any other leagcy, quite fun to drive too.
Steve_ SamueL wow that is a rare car.
I'm not much of a Subi fan. But i would like to have that Forester. Japan has the coolest stuff.
That’s a lot for a forester even if it’s a sti if you need space just look at a four door maybe a evolution or just a regular sti. We have them here in Canada and they usually go for like low tens no one really wants it except for the engine

That blob eye at the back😍😍😍
The bugeye and the forester sti are my favourite cars!!!
Between the forester and the bug eye, id definitely go for the bugeye. but thats just because im not a wagon guy
I don't know if they sell Volvo's in Japan but, if they do. They have some great sleeper wagons if that is what you are looking for.
Do iiiiiit , also that blue is so beautiful to look at
That car is sick
i own forester sti sf5 and its the best daily ive ever owned
I have one of these. Best car I've ever had. Cheers from Aichi ken.
Definitely get the forester Sti
Congrats on 56k I fucking love your content
It would be cool to get one and I think it would definitely appreciate in value over time. There is only 1 in my state in Australia and it recently sold for around $40k AUD.
Forester sti everywhere in New Zealand
Go with the sedan, more space than it seems and looks way cooler.
Clean forester bruhh
I'd probably still go for the forester if I had the money, although that other sti has a much more tempting price.
3-4K for that bug eye sti?!?!?! Can’t find that anywhere around here in Colorado
i think u are supposed to say its not available in your country coz here in my country every soccer mom has it......they surely dont know how special it is but the go for 5k and they are mint not that 13k bullshit ......good man ....awesome channel

1337David nope this version Forester STi is 2006 to 2008 gen. The 2004 gen had a blocky face.

My Forester was a 2004 drove for over 13 years before i junk the car due to gearbox failure. The engine was sound.
Japan got the best engine.
go for it pare
I would wait and get something cheaper, but it looks like something you really like so I would say to get it
I will go for Impreza if I were you... its cheaper and looks cooler... true Forester STI version is so rare but Impreza is good too...!
That forester looks really dope, i would buy it only bc its rare, but i wouldnt buy bc it doesnt looks that good for me🤔
I would love to come and visit Japan especially inital d
That’s pretty pricey, but the SG9 forester all the way, no question.
Not really, that car in the states would fetch easy 16k +
Brad D depends on condition. This one didn’t look like it was in great shape.
i really hope you bought it !
Impreza! The v7 has a semi forged block ;)
Man, get the forester, soon it’ll worth a lot
Could kill for a coach jacket with a logo on the back as well
coughcough ;p
60k soon!
personnally I would get the bugeye, its an sti and it goes for 3000$... where I live 2.5TS N/A goes for that price
I don't know your opinions on Mazda, but I would suggest just looking for a MazdaSpeed3 tbh
Ur awesome content homie
I saw one for sale in elizabeth NJ so idk about not available overseas
I have a 2006 Subaru Forester xt red
Pick the cheaper one ^^ but.... but the Forrester is really cool, except the dashboard..

You should get sti bugeye but if you find Impreza wrx or sti gc8 that I would get that the rarest one out all of them the 22bsti but get the gc8 for the price
Try and get a Forester sti, they're very unique
Maybe get a rougher one and work on it yourself?
All of my friends that have owned rexxys etc and moved to forester's or similar cars have regret it or not used it for what it's for.
Too much money and being debt is not the way to go at all. The normal STIs really aren't that bad on space and I can't see the forester going up in value, especially not in Japan.
