Wow I have one but the base model and always asked myself why didn’t they make an sti version of it, then came across this ! You’re a Very lucky guy to have one 👍
Love these cars, nearly bought one a few years ago, I’m in the UK so we’ve got a few imports over here, I think the brembo brakes were an option as a couple that I saw had them, I bought a FOZ STI in the end as I couldn’t find a clean Bug STI Wagon
Hello! I recently picked up a imported 96 Legacy GT-B (BG5). I'm having a hard time finding the AISIN part # for the timing belt kit. you wouldn't happen to know what part number it is being in japan would you?
@OkiSubies hell do you hate a gates kit #? brand don't matter to me to be absolutely honest. I just don't want to order the wrong set to America lol. It's absolutely no worries if you guys are unsure.
This car will become eligible to take back to the states soon! What a rare car to have back home!
Love seeing gems thanks
Glad to have one of those. Lovely little wagon.
I've worked on quite a few v7 sti wagons mate of mine has 2 of them in his collection nice little cars to drive handle very well
Only 850 where made of this type car ....I am a proud owner of a white one❤

That is such a nice wagon! I like the shift indicator!
I always loved that option from the Impreza’s. My first Subaru was a Forester STI and I was disappointed to see that it didn’t have it lol
Great Video! Keep up the great content!
Thank you!
Never know their was a wagon sti version, but in the Caribbean, we have the sedan sti , love the video.
Bugeye content always welcome!
Great 😊👍
We got them all here in nz
Most people don’t realize that pre 08 sti wagons are very rare.
I got a 2001 GDB Bugeye, picked it up this fall! I did not know about the shift light! I'm in Ottawa, Canada so only 15 years to wait here.
Glad we could help share some info! 15year rule in Canada is amazing!
Woww what a car..
Keep it up guys..
Always love subaru😊
Thank you!
Iv got a bug wagon 207 built motor and every bolt on but the sti wagon is my dream car here Australia
Definitely puts mine to shame! Great to see what one in amazing condition looks like so i can dream to have it looking this great! Great vid!
Appreciate it! Don’t cut yourself short! I am sure you can get it looking great in no time!
i have a 2002 GGB sportwagon Sti..subaru only made around 850 units from 2001 - 2002..
@@trustgtr33 nice! Would have been cool if they were numbered cars, those who know, know..
I have a 02 wrx wagon rally blue love the damn car but its time for an sti swap

That 2.5L has some very nice torque! I feel you can’t go wrong with either one. Great pickup!
That is a beautiful car 🤩, and definitely rare at that too! I didn't even know they made an STI bug-eye wagon. How did you guys come across one?
We have access to the Japan Auctions in mainland and keep an eye out on all the Subaru’s😅
@OkiSubies I would want to install a VF-52 after market turbo in an sf5 forester. Whats your insight on the VF-52 turbo?
We didn’t get that turbo in Japan so not too sure but any of the bigger vf turbo’s are great on the EJ205’s for sure.
@@OkiSubies which radiator would you recommend after market?

EJ20R Engine code.
So sorry, not sure what the part number is. We use the 02-05 Gates kit and upgrade the tensioner bracket to fit the newer style tensioner and pulley.
