1998 Subaru Forester with WRX driveline swap

Time has come for me to sell my swapped forester, there are no issues with the car and I drive it everyday, I'm just looking for something a bit different.


Swap was performed at the start of 2014
98 Forester L body with 316k miles and no rust, car came from Minnesota. Only the body has this many miles, anything mechanical is either brand new or was pulled from the donor car with half the miles. This is a must see and drive to appreciate car!

The following listed was pulled from a 2002 wrx wagon with 148k and installed of January of 2014
-Engine
-Front and rear sub frames
-Gas tank
-Driveshaft
-Ecu
-Transmission
-Rear diff
-Control arms
-Front and rear sway bars

Other details-
Forester frame spacers removed.

07 STI catback exhaust
Turbo XS catless up pipe
Turbo XS 4in Downpipe
Iwire harness merge
Under drive pulley
Perrin silicone intercooler hoses
Replaced valve cover gaskets
Re booted front CV shafts
New break pads and rotors (within the last year)
Timing belt/water pump done within last 20k miles by previous wrx owner

Good

AC and heat both work great
Car was tuned with Cobb Accessport "stage 2 " tune
Windshield recently replaced
Drives like it came from the factory, not like a project, or swapped vehicle
Be the envy of your friends
Mechanically the car is an 02 WRX wagon meaning it can be tuned and modified as such so parts availability is excellent.

Bad
Minor dents and dings due to age
One bad paint spot on rear hatch, 90% covered by trim panel however.
Cruise control installed but cable needs to be run to throttle body.

Asking $7700 reasonable offers will be considered. No trades please. Located in Omaha, NE. Any questions, ask away, as I was the builder of this car.
