Michaels build is pretty sweet...leaving nothing on the table and only going for the finest quality parts.
He has sourced a complete 05 STi 6-spd driveline (hubs, knuckles, Brembos, etc...). And to make the current 04 Suspension work he has also ordered 6gun racing knuckles to adapt the 5x100 to the 5x114.3 setup.
We are also installing:
-Sparco EVO Seat (Navy)
-Whiteline ALK (Race)
-Whiteline Bump Steer Kit
-Whiteline Adjustable Lateral Links
-Whiteline Diff Bushings
-Whiteline Crossmember Lock Down Bolts
-Whiteline Steering Rack Bushings
-Cusco Trailing Arms
-Goodridge SS Brake Lines
-Axxis Ultimate Brake Pads
-DBA 2 Piece Front Rotors
-ACT Streetlite Flywheel
-RPS Max Street Clutch
-Enkei NT03+M (18x9.5 +27)
-BF Goodridge G-Force (255/40/18)

yeah I think Michael has really done a good job of sticking to what is really going to work best for his application and plans.
good news is all this stuff is always in stock (only items that were special order was 2 piece rotors, seat- only b/c i have black in stock, and wheels/tires).
I know Michael will be pleased when the car is done, only issue I forsee is the wheel/tire combo.....until he gets the widebody and some Ohlins on it

finished up rear end transformation...just waiting on what Michael wants for endlinks (whiteline spherical or solid).
just waiting on parts for front end conversion (knuckles) and transmission to come back from tranny shop.
for now we are at a stand still until the parts Michael ordered and tranny is diagnosed/fixed...Car will soon be ready for W-I-D-E Body, from what Michael has been saying its slotted for early January (body shop comes over tomorrow to access damage to do the job).
some pics for you guys!
