I've been a Subaru fan for years. I still have my original bugeye WRX as of yet, but this came up on FB marketplace. You all know of Jesse and his work at JM Automotive. This is my retirement gift to myself. 02 WRX with an 06 STI driveline swap including Brembos. Built engine by JM. Extensive build list.
Looks cleeeeeean! Nice “gift” Terry! So JM built it for the shop and you bought it? Or did you pick the items and JM did the work? Need the details!
Was a JM customer car that was brought up from Texas 5 yeas years ago. Customer blew original engine. Don't have specifics, but Jesse ended up with the car and he installed the engine from his personal race car. Engine has about 10k on build.

Well it was built with the right parts by the right guys! Congrats on your retirement gift to yourself Terry! Would love to experience 600 horsies in a bugeye
Those 2 in the back are currently residing at my son's house. I got the 98 Forester back in the deal.
