pretty good subarus in general are good, only problem was the fuel rail issue from 04+ they had running lean problems on cly. #4 i think, the bugeyes didnt, and weak point on the bugeyes is the tranny depending, when ever you go check one out look at the tranny code on the plate in the engine bay, if you see the last numbers 2BA then it has the sti ra spec width gears which are stronger, if it ends in 2AA leave that bish alone cuz that tranny is the weak version, otherwise motor is solid
