For sale is my incredibly rare S/Tb 5MT Forester SF5. Unlike its UK counterpart (S Turbo), the S/Tb was only manufactured in Japan and came in a 5-speed manual and a 4-speed automatic. You are looking at the more sought after 5-speed EJ205 (yes it's also the more desirable 2.0L not the 2.5L!)Additionally, these variants came out of the factory at 250/260hp, unlike the UK variant which is roughly 170hp.This is a once in a lifetime car and she's absolutely amazing. Due to job requirements, and because she is used daily, I'm having to swap to something more economical as I find myself travelling further afield.There has been one prior UK owner to me when it was first imported in 2017, and I purchased the car in Oct 2021. The car is sat on 91,000 miles (converted from KM) and hasn't missed a beat in her entire time on UK soil.

Let's talk mods:1. H&S Exhaust System (with baffle)2. Genuine HKS SSQV BOV (I have the original bypass valve if you wish to swap it out.)3. Samco Radiator Hoses4. Blitz Intake w/ Custom Cradle5. Apexi Boost Gauge6. GAB Non-Adjustable Dampened Suspension7.

From factory, Subaru offered the "Aerospec" which was a unique front bumper, sideskirts and rear spats. This… Continue reading...
