Engine Management and TBE. Both can be had for under 1200.

wrx's last as long as you dont break the tranny by slamming gears...evo's are nice but usually have problems when buying used...like i found out first hand

i've had 03 wrx, we have an 05 legacy gt and an 05 forester xt...never had a problem on any of them... my new 03 evo back in 03...was awesome...never had a problem...now my 06 evo ix...that was pure garbage...i clearly got a poorly made model...it was out of alignment from the factory, they wouldnt cover it. warped brake rotors within 4000 miles of normal driving, suspension made noise, and 3rd gear ground...just be REAL picky if your going to pick up a used evo...i learned my lesson
