Been wanting a subaru since being a young lad watching the rally racing and whatnot. To be specific, an Sti. By the time I was making decent money the WRX had taken its shape in the form of the Sti bodystyle and yes, I shaved corners and went with a wrx instead of an sti. Bought in March '12 and I couldn't be happier and although its not the sti, I still love it to death. Enjoy! This is the end result of what I have done so far. Its a bit backwards. I will post pics of the transformation, if even called that, very soon

{Update} I spun a Rod bearing on 9/12/13 so the car had to have a new short block installed and new exhaust cam installed as well....all covered under warranty luckily
