So I've pretty much settled on an R-B, but apart from the basics I'm not really sure what to look for in the second hand market in terms of a good deal.  I want to spend $18K which is lower than almost all the R-B's listed in Vic, but there are numerous ones within that price range interstate and i'd consider buying from a dealer interstate and driving it back (if it was the right one).

How many k's before the subie's going to start throwing parts in the bin.  From what i've read, subies are know for cooking clutches but i'm not sure how many k's they'll do as a guide to how soon i'd need to replace it in the one i buy (obviously it all depends on how it was driven by its previous owner but a rough guide would be good).

It's going to be my daily driver and it'll receive some modest mods, exhaust, front lip, AUX cable and a set of OEM STI wheels (if i can find them).


Any other common faults or issues i should be on the look out for?
