2004 Subaru WRX STi owned by “Rich”
Little About Rich
Bought the car new in august 2003. Been a crazy trip ever since. I just want to build a fun, trackable, daily driver I can be proud of. I’ve done all the work myself aside from the tune, with NO sponsors. (open to offers though.)
If other people like it , then that’s cool. If not I don’t mind, I do this for myself. You know you’re doing something right when the haters come out I guess ;P

Sick car, for the ‘tards who say it’s not an STi, I say that’s cause you don’t own an Impreza…The 2006 rear underbody diffuser DOESN’T come on the 2004-2005! Brembo’s only come on STi. WRX skirts look better than STi’s (when painted with the strakes), busy doing that myself.
As for the seats, i know a lot of people who don’t like the STi’s blue interior!! Personally i love it but that’s my own taste. Would be a boring world if we all liked the same thing! Hey my WR Blue STi has Lime green Revolution Millennium wheels…that different enough for you! Top job Rich, thumbs up from me bro!
LOL we can see Domokun on the passenger seat!! xD What’s the name of the bear on the front bumper??
Very nice car Rich!!!
Its not an sti, thats why he purchased an sti rear diffuser from a 2006 and the sti rear strut bar for it
Hey man great ride. Just had a question for you. Your wheels are perfectly “spaced” and was wondering how you got the look. All you have to do is get wheel spacer’s? I read on your page you have 10mm front spacer’s and 5mm rear right? I really want that look and was going to buy 25mm spacer’s. Now your making me think that would be too much. Anyways I would really appreciate if you got back to me on this. Car looks great man, good job. Peace
the guy who was saying this isnt an sti is stupid. just because it doesnt have sti splitters or sti hood scoop doesnt mean its not an sti. all the parts are interchangeable. and look. it has brembos. no one is going to lie about this. and it has a wrx hood scoop because of the front mount. stop assuming things and learn to recognize an sti when you see one
I just bought me a 2004 STI a few days ago and the guy i bought it from had just bought a Tsudo exhaust system for it but i don’t know if it is any good. I want to put an exhaust on it but i don’t know what kind would be good for my car if you have suggestions let me know.
thats a wrx notice it does not have spliters like the one next to it all stis come wit
them also why wouldu have wrx rear seats??? why sell the hole interior and
get recaros and a wrx hood??? pls stop lying and just say its a wrx not sti
bt asides that i give u props for doing it right ill probably do the same if i get a wrx
since i cant afford an sti juts yet bt im not going to b telling ppl its an sti
thanks guys! got some goodies planned when i get back from central america (work)!
That is a truly and utterly awesome looking car. Best looks on a 2004 i’ve seen so far.
This is the specs on the wheels…

Most wheel shops online will carry them or can get them for you. I would check Subaru forums for group buys first because you may be able to save yourself some money – there’re not cheap.
very nice car man… i want to put the exact same stance,wheels and tyres on my 08 sti spec r… where do you get those wheels?
Damn bro looks like you bought an STI instead of an EVO. Don’t worry everyone makes mistakes. Good thing is you can sell this in time to catch a great deal on a new EVO X!
Dear Rich,
Please tell me where you live so I can come steal your car. I have been looking for a clean GD for some time. It’s hard to find one that doesn’t have a giant wing because I’m to lazy to pull that off.
Yours Truly,
Debo
LOL yeah… i’m no hater, i respect any clean fast car. i would kill to have an evo x and keep this car
i never mess around on the streets anymore anyway. .. i got a few typos in there to.. oh well..
Looks clean man I like it. I also like how you put “Evo’s (some)” under kills way to cover your butt!
Ahaha just kidding.
thanx bro
i’d love to have an evo x, you made a good choice . but you really couldn;t go wrong either way
Super clean car I love the wingless look and very tastefully modded. I just bought a EVO X and was pulling my hair out trying to choose between the two. I love the sound of the boxer engine you get a thumbs up from me!
