Magnum626 · 02-21-2006, 09:44 PM

Great job...the only thing I have to say is, why didn't you take out the seats?

They're lookin kinda dirty now...

9vapors · 02-21-2006, 10:57 PM

AlbanianImpreza · 02-21-2006, 11:03 PM

taeyax82 · 02-22-2006, 01:27 AM

the car is running! perfectly.. except i have to check the dbw pedal.. once more! and yes! seats are dirty! well i'll get them shampoo when spring comes.. things i installed during swap.. are basically full sti drivetrain, sti steering wheel, sti console, sti front, dash, rear harness, gauge cluster(was already there) dccd controller, temp sensors, etc, need to clean out some stuff.. took it for a test and i'm very happy with it.. damn that 4days were hell!!!! but worth it!!
