It's tranny, diff, and brakes. I dunno about the DCCD control. It's $8000 for just the motor, but I wouldn't want to have to baby my RS transmission.

WRX motor swaps are only $5000, though.

STI drivetrain swap into a GC like Kevin's old car or Cory's current car is the only swap that I see as justified.

JonnydaJibba · 2006-03-03, 12:09 PM

We're so getting busted for polluting the purity of this thread.

A1337STI · 2006-03-03, 12:50 PM

M3n2c3 · 2006-03-03, 10:46 PM

Here:

I saw a silver STi in Carson heading south on 395 today at about 2:30pm. It kinda looked like NevadaSTi, but I didn't notice in time to get a clear view.

Forgotten · 2006-03-06, 05:52 PM

Pretty sure I saw U53D today on Wells right before the freeway around 1:30 or so.

Mmmm... turbo... no way dude. I desperately wish it was, and I do have BIG plans for the future, but she's just barely over stock right now for power. All my $ has gone into handling!

There's a blue GC RS running around that somebody just picked up from a used lot a couple weeks ago. Has the paper plates on it still. SUPER clean! Looks like showroom condition from what I've seen!

Anybody know 'em?

Leper Dog · 2006-03-07, 08:39 AM

Saw a white 06 STi on the side of the road on clearacre at 9 am thursday (march 2nd). Bad news is an RPD moto cop was writing him a ticket

That guy should know better, I see those bike cops all the time. Riding in packs even. They pull over a lot of people on El Rancho as well.

I saw a nice two door RS2.5 Coupe Sedona Red with the plates Pra4sno, car had some exhaust and aftermarket tires. In the Carls Jr drive thru right in front of me.

M3n2c3 · 2006-03-08, 12:47 AM

cody · 2006-03-08, 08:09 AM

^^^Good one.

A1337STI · 2006-03-15, 03:49 PM

few days ago I saw an 04/05 Black STI headed down Khale (off of highway 50 in tahoe) and aparently he has smashed up his fender really good. i think he lives 1 apartment complex down from me . anyone here? (kinda don't think so) he kinda speeds too much i'm thinking of saying something to him (its 25 zone and i see him doing like 40 or 50 all the time) gonna give sti drivers a bad name .

I also saw an 06 Silver STI driving up kingsbury grade (owner of a local taco bell franchise) anyone here ?

A1337STI · 2006-03-16, 10:30 PM

I saw Ryan4601 parked oustdie of Jimmy Johns earlier today, the car looks so good. It's the first time I've seen it not at a meet, in the day it looks so hot.

dknv · 2006-03-21, 02:42 PM

Saw Ben B (rather, I heard his car) drive by in the NW Reno Walmart. Haven't seen him in awhile. Was he up in Alaska again for the season?

ScottyS · 2006-03-22, 12:00 PM

Speaking of AK, saw tons of Subies up in Fairbanks and Anchorage last week. Legacy SS's and TW's, STi's, and the ubiquitous Legacy Outback. Saw only two sets of aftermarket Altezza tails (on Hondas). I think I like that state unconditionally now.
