I have owned my Australian spec '98 WRX for 16 years. It was stored away for the last 5 years due to having too many other priorities. I recently pulled it out and have fallen in love again. It isn't the fastest, newest or most expensive car I own, but it just puts a smile on your face. It is such a good all rounder.

I had a green '08 registered MY99 for 10 years back in the day. I would call it "agricultural", and my current '08 STI is better in almost every way (except looks, obviously), but I would still love to go for a spin in the old girl again. That rawness definitely equates almost directly to excitement.

In ‘98 I borrowed a standard WRX for a week from a guy at work (company car) while he went on holiday. I took it to Wales. It was just awesome. Back then it was like nothing else and even now I think it would be more ‘real world’ fun than all these 400hp Audi/BWW/Mercedes Luxo rockets. Too detached an experience and too frustrating to drive on todays busy roads.

Great video and bought back some great memories. I had 4 Sti Imprezas back in the day and still miss them now. And the noise.

The 22b will always be my favourite Road Rally car. Closely followed by the Makkinen Evo 6.. I loved the both when they came out and still do..

I have a 1999 jdm sti v5 sedan and would like to convert it into 22B. But waw, I have to sell my house to do this.But thumbs up for scoobyclinic for these conversions.

Makes me want one again! Had a few but on reflection the classic was the best even with “only” 200 odd bhp. It was just beautifully judged balance of power/weight/feel/ride quality. Best car for Uk roads.

In 2016 I sold my immaculately restored & unmodified 98' STI Type R (JDM spec) to make room for the new Ford Focus RS I ordered. At the time there was a 22B for sale across the ditch in Australia for $120k. I was tempted but had already ordered the Ford...still kicking myself!!

Nice video Jonny. I've 2 memories of scoobies. Sadly neither are 22B related. 1st was my 1st boss used to have an R reg one, it had done over 200k miles easy, but he took me out in it to collect a van. 1st round about, we took it sideways! 2nd, was my 30th present, half a day at a rally experience, although the time was short driving one, it gave me a taste of what a scooby could do off road.

Thanks for the quality content Mate - enjoying your style! I love a 22B - as an Australian living in the UK, Ive never actually seen one in the flesh, we did get one back in OZ, but it was delivered to Subaru & from memory wasnt road legal as didnt have the correct side intrusion protection. Hard to believe they are fetching so much now days, but Im not sure I would drop 100k on one personally, even if it does look the part!

I remember years and years ago as a kid I would walk past a black GC shape Scooby that had the 22B wings and a bodykit. The guy had a super loud exhaust on it and you would hear the BOV before seeing the car, I joked with my friend at the time that we would end up with a Scooby, and I with an Evo 8/9. Now they're basically unobtainable for the normal person

Hindsight… I had a P reg prodrive imprezza in 1997/8/9. Was great fun. Wonderful sound. Had a scooby sport exhaust on it. I paid £18,500 for mine and sold it for £12,000.
