I'm keeping my '01 RS and dropping an all new drivetrain (and eventually seats) into it when I could easily have just traded it in for an STi. I just liked the idea of keeping my car and continuing to mod it more than starting over.

'04s have the same chassis codes as '02-'03s. Just different styling.

I dunno... I think mixing it up with modded rexes and stock STis counts as better than "not very fast".

But I'd rather do a motor swap then turbo the EJ25.
agreed. GC8 coupe is a very nice looking car whereas the WRX is pretty ugly, imho.
