Q: What size are the stock speakers in a 1998 Subaru WRX?
I have a 1998 Subaru WRX with stock speakers, 1 is blown and another is getting close, can anyone tell me what size the stock speakers are so I can go buy some new ones?

A: Contact www.crutchfield.com and talk free of charge to an expert. He will has answers and recommendations to what will fit and what won’t.

Q: How long does a subaru wrx last?
I am looking at making a purchase on a new car. I have wanted a subaru wrx for a very long time and I am finally able to afford a used one. I see many of them that have high milage. Ranges from 90,000 to 170,000. I was wondering how long these cars last? and if it would be a wise purchase?

A: What a great choice in car you will not go wrong with a subaru, if you plan to thrash it about everywhere you go it will be very costly and will not last long, but if you respect it and drive it it will last forever, lol incase you have not guessed I looooooooooove them go on get a subaru you will not regret it. :-)

Q: How much Horse Power does a stock turbo 03 Subaru WRX have?
I have a 2003 Subaru WRX stock turbo with 14psi and I have no idea how much Horse Power it has.

A: Rated at 227HP.

Q: Will a 2003 Subaru WRX turbo engine fit into my 2002 Subaru Legacy GT?
The engine in my 2002 Subaru Legacy GT Limited blew a head gasket, and now I am looking for a new engine. I found a 2003 WRX turbo engine that sounds great, but I don’t know if the two engines can be interchangable between the two vehicles. Thanks for any help!

A: The 2.5L engine in your Legacy and a 2.0L engine from the WRX are virtually identical. There are a couple problems though. One is your Legacy is heavier than a standard WRX, so you will not gain a huge amount of performance, and you will lose some fuel economy. Also, you would need to change several things including the exhaust, instrument cluster, engine management to have it run correctly. Also, with that, it would be much cheaper to replace a head gasket than a whole engine. A head gasket is $60, and labor on a head gasket would be about 4-5 hours at $90/hr. A complete good engine for a WRX is about $2500, plus 8-12 hours labor at $90/hr.

Q: How can i get 500 horsepower out of a 2002 Subaru Impreza WRX?
I just bought a 2002 subaru wrx,its 5 speed and i wold like to get at least 500 ponnies out of it,what all do i need?thanks

A: Supercharger??? Dude Above me please retract your statement. Anyway I had 300 out of my 02 WRX and it was fast. 12.9 @ 103 mph.

You want 500, your going to need more than me.
• Turbo Back Exhaust
• Catless Up pipe
• Unequal Length Header
• Bigger Turbo (Blouch 20G, 30R, 35R)
• Injectors
• Walbro 255 Fuelpump
• Cams, Pistons, Fresh Plugs
• Intake
• Tune (Cobb Accessport or TurboXS Utec along with a proper tune by a Shop)
• Meth Injection
• Nitrous (if you want)

Theres more to it, but that list should get you started. Also with having the WRX PLEASE, PLEASE Invest in a PPG Transmission (Pfitzner Straight Cut Dog Box Trans) Or else you will be blowing your trans up easy. The 02-03 Trans are nicknamed “Glassbox Trans” because they break.

Good Luck and maybe email me or something and Ill show you pics of my Bugeye that I had before It was totaled by a Deer. Im about to buy a 05 STi now.

Q: How much would insurance for a Subaru Impreza WRX be?
I am getting my license very soon and I plan on getting an 02 Subaru Impreza WRX for my first car. I am curious to know what will be the monthly cost of my insurance (an estimate). I will be on my parents insurance and they have Liberty Mutual. I know that the WRX has one of the highest insurance rates but I want to know if it will be doable or not. Thanks in advanced.

A: It depends on variables. If you decide to get insurance with it, go with Liberty Mutual they give you Subaru safety discounts.

The wrx will be expensive to insure, but not as expensive as the STI.
I pay around 127/month for my Sti
no tickets or accidents.

Q: What’s better to get, 2007 subaru impreza wrx or a 2008?
im planning on getting a subaru impreza wrx and i like em both but which one would be better and would i have more fun with. I heard they made some changes in the 08 so im not sure.

A: Same engine and TD04 turbo in both cars. I always say newer the better but it’s going to be your car so your decision.

Q: does anyone know the differnce between a version 7 subaru wrx to a versions seven subaru 20k?
we are looking at buying a subaru impreza wrx and we are looking at 2 version 7 subaru imprezas and one is a wrx and one is a 20k but both turbo can anyone tell me if they are different in any way

A: I assume you are not in America. Our versions are quite different.

Q: Can you have a Subaru wrx sedan but not an sti edition?
I want the wrx but not the sti, not that into rallying but I want a powerful awd car.

A: Yes.

There are different versions of the Impreza.

Non-Turbo
WRX – Turbo
WRX – Turbo plus some premium features
WRX STi – Turbo, faster, xtras

Q: Would a Subaru WRX be just as good as a STI with some slight modifications?
If i modified a WRX with a performence exhaust system, cold air intake, and some sport suspensions would it be just as good as an STI?

A: Forget the cold air intake; add exhaust, tune, and suspension and you’re probably 90% of an STi…except for brakes.

Q: can i put subaru wrx parts in liberty?
my boyfriend has a subaru liberty lx ‘96 model and needs to replace his rear shocks as they are leaking and not working. he has found shocks for a subaru wrx and doesn’t know if they can be used in a liberty, any advise please? can any other parts from other models be used as well?

Q: How much do subaru wrx engine cost?
I have a 2002 wrx, and I think I need a new engine, How much would a used engine cost ?

A: It really depends on how much of the engine you need. Are the heads still god or not? For a short block, I have seen them for sale in the NASIOC classifieds for about $500 running. They are about $1500 new from Subaru. If yo need the heads too, it might run closer to $1000 used and $2500 new. Labor will run about $1500 for a short block R&R. If you need heads too and they need to be assembled, it will be more. So in short the answer to your question is between $500 to $5000.

Q: 2000’s Subaru WRX insurance info for a 20 year old in ct?
Hello I’m looking into purchasing either a 2002 or 2004 Subaru WRX. I live in Connecticut i am 20, have had my license for 2 years with no accidents or tickets. I would like to see what others are paying in insurance. I have to figure out car payments/insurance rates. I would prefer people from Connecticut but i would also like to see some rates from other states! Please help!

A: The only answer I can give you is to call around for insurance and go to a web site like www.bankrate.com and use the auto loan calculator to see what payments would be. I have a feeling that being 20 years old and purchasing a fairly sporty car is going to give you insurance shock.

Q: How do you like your MY08 Subaru WRX?
Failing that – how do you like THE MY08 Subaru WRX. I test drove the other day and thought it was awesome and much better than my MY03. I was surprised.

And please answer my girlfriend too … is it a gay handbag?

A: i love it too.. MY08 is kicking ass… i have driven it too, and it is so much more fun cos its lighter, and engine is lower again too, so yeah, i love it!
