I bought my rex mostly stock in April with 100k miles on it. It wasnt taken care of by the previous owner so I am bringing it back to good health.

    Welcome!

    I don't want to sound rude, but if you are hoping to care for and nurture your wrx like you said I wouldn't offroad too often :eek:

    It was the only time I've left pavement as I was putting on my STi struts the next day.
