So i finally got bored with the wrx and parted it out and now its in its stock form getting ready to be sold....of course i couldnt go to long without a project going on so i picked up a 96 L. Plans are to turn this light car into a time attack beast. Of course, to get there is a long road. One of the main reasons i want to do this is to have a car i can learn in(to become a better track driver) but not be overly expensive incase an accident happens. I picked the L because it takes a lot more work to get it up to the level of the newer subaru models.
Plans are something like this:
ej20 swap
aps fmic - so i dont have to get a scoop'd hood
reverse intake manifold
slot wrx brakes
wrx calipers
ss brake lines
take steps with turbos..first td04, then vf30, then build block and slap on a monster turbo
roll cage
wrx seats front/rear, then something better
front strut bar
rear strut bar
FHI 20mm rear sway, then bigger
Optima battery relocation to trunk
STi i/c tank used for windshield washer moved to trunk
misc grimmspeed parts
those are the things i can think of so far. if you have any opinions on some of the stuff please speak up because i consider myself a complete noob when it comes to these older models.
