I get what you're saying.
Do research, massive amounts of research. These guys aren't going to do it for you.
First thing to do: Start posting in the subaru forums.
second: join a forum dedicated to WRX STI's and start looking at their tech forums, see what problems others are having and see if it outweighs the benefits. Remember it's all subjective though, there are THOUSANDs of those cars made, even moreso since you're going for a year
range rather than a specific year. Just because a few people have this issue and post it on the forum doesnt mean all 30,000 of the other drivers are getting it too
