what do you mean by info? All the info you need is included in his CL ad, lol. Unless you are talking about carfax history? That you'd have to get on your own as it costs some money.

it says swap was done at LIC, so you can probably get more info by calling them.

Sounds like it has a badass braking system!

Brembo Front brakes


Brembo Rear brakes with brackets and custom rotors for 160 hub


Subaru 4pot front brakes


subaru 2pot rear brakes with brackets and custom rotors for 160 hub

Maybe contact LIC and see what kind of history they know if it recently?

Oh sweet - you got a wrecked WRX for cheaper than this pretty much perfect swapped RS Sedan...

Totally. This was on the LIC project page for a long time, I think it was one of their earlier swaps - not sure. From all of the pics I saw back then it seems pretty much perfect. If I could handle SRP and wanted a 4door, I would have been all over this car and for what it is, the price is great! I am sure I will be out far more money to end up with a lesser car since I am having the work done instead of buying a swapped car.

Agreed, the price is really good for what you get. Surprised it's been for sale for so long .
