Chris P's 2013 Impreza WRX STI Premium

Member #42968 :: Car Show Entry

Car Description:
Purchased stock in November 2019 with 12k original miles.
All modifications, with the exception of the engine build, have been done by me in my home garage. Engine was built and installed by Prime Motoring in New Jersey.

This is my second subaru, and my first sti. After my old wrx build, I wanted to take a slightly different approach and do my vision of my perfect sti, using genuine and high quality parts throughout the build

While some modifications jump out, like the air suspension, TE37 wheels, retrofitted OEM headlights, and the built engine, other modifications more subtle, and require knowing what you’re looking at, like the valenti tail lights, alcantara interior accents, and OEM JDM parts sprinkled throughout, including the JDM Recaro seats, genuine JDM S206 red seatbelts, the multi coat fog lights, the lip kit, and power folding mirrors, complete with Liberal Albero welcome lights, convex mirror lenses, and an autofold module to open and close with the key fob.

With subaru recently announcing that the sti will no longer be produced, i plan on keeping this car for life. I have a vision for future mods that will compliment what i have done so far.

The full build list of every single thing done to the car is below. At this point, there is not much left in the car that hasn’t been touched:
