Awesome car. One little nitpick, I think you should swap out the blue silicone hose couplings to red for matching sake (I know purely asthetic) and also you need some wider wheels and sticky rubber to handle all that power. Congrats on the car man.

i dont know if the tranny will hold. usually the initial launch of the car and hard shifts kills the tranny. i am extremely easy on my car during launches and shifts. i believe in the sti 6 speed. i will be the first to let you guys know if i have any problems with it.

just an estimate but how much did it cost you to build up that motor.
I would like to do something similar but something not as crazy as you, i would like some more torque and that 2.2 l would be perfect.
where abouts did you get all your parts.
Thanks any info would be greatly appreciated.

Hinge your license plate. When I lived in Japan the guys would mount their license plate using hinges so that when your car started to move it would swing back towards the intercooler so that it was basically folded up out of the way. Not sure how much room you have between the plate and the intercooler however it might be worth checking out.
