Default Advice on buying an 07 Sti

Hi Guys,

I've had my bugeye now since new and thinking time for a change as it's 8 yrs old.
Am looking at a white 07 Sti with low mileage.
Anything specific to look out for on the 07 models?
I know the 02-05 range reasonably well and odd probs like fuel pump upgrade on 02 PPP's for example.

Many thanks,
Chris

Theres a nice uk sti with 22k for 14k on pistonheads. Would you consider a Jap import it's got the robust 2.0 litre engine with the twinscroll turbo and and equal lengh headers and spools up much better and reacts to tunning better to. Do you plan on any mods and will you be doing any track days?

Hey Immy,
Thx for the reply.
Is that the white one on PH from Scotland? I seem to recall seeing one on there last week.
Have thought about a JDM. Still not 100% convinced though.
Track days are a probable no. Mods nothing planned specifically as depends as what's on the car. Suspension would be one if not done and power to around 350bhp, that's all.
Why are you selling a JDM per chance? :-)
Cheers,
Chris
