WTB: Full WRX drivetrain

soo i have decided that this summer is my time to actually get stuff done to my car cause i will finally be done with college...and the first thing on my list is too get rid of my automatic RS motor and go to a 2.0 WRX motor, and a stick as well...and since its a big purchase i was wondering the best and cheapest way to get my hands on a motor, and for install too!

 

I think you would be much better of selling your RS and getting a wrx. It will be way less work. You are looking a a few grand worth of stuff plus all the labor.

 

used parts or parts car. then sell off your stock stuff if you can

 

labor is free when you do the work yourself

 

yyeea i would sell it...that was an option in my head but i still have a bit to go left on my loan and everything :\

 

true that...ask justin about it

 

I say you get a '07 STi trans while deal is hot.

 

swapped gc > any 2.0 wrx

 

If you are really planning on doing this than get a wrecked sti and do an sti swap. It will be a really big project tho.

 

worth every penny too

 

from his avatar it look like he has a bugeye. If he has a gc, it a totally different story. GC with WRX/STI swap is awesome.

 

heyy big projects are a great way to learn new things! haha i already ksal to help out, but he said hes not to knowledgeable with the whole installing part..haha

 

trial and error, and you will get to know your car better.

 

all you need is some tools, and bawlz. Mainly bawlz, since tools are easy to come by.

 

haha especially when i work at menards..

 

bummp?
