And BTW, I have stock bypass-valve and no carbon fiber. The only reason i updated rims are for race rubber, so don't stereotype everyone. I guess I'm gonna go get a cosworth built motor now, if i even do so at all, as I'm about to invest some serious money in myself.
G/l with your sale.

I'm just playing, don't get offended. I just hate to see WRX's all riced out! You know, slammed to the ground, no suspension………….I mean, it’s a rally car! They should have some ground clearance for crying out loud.

(not that I would ever take my car off-roading)

For comparison, you can pick up a salvaged (wrecked) STi for about $7k. Yes I know you have to wait around and watch for one but that's what they go for. You may need minor repairs and parts but you'll get motor, trans, axles, diff, ecu, harness etc.

Nah, I'm a ***** right now, grouchy cuz I'm still sick. I TOTALLY agree about the riceness. I bought my car for one reason only. It's a DD, but soon it will be my weekend warrior!!! Don't get me wrong, I'd love to p/u your motor, but I've got other commitments and complications right now.

There are more ricey rides here than not i think. I don't think they understand the geometry of suspension, too much playstation games.

Just an update for any of you guys saving to buy a WRX or STI engine. I plan to swap in my JDM engine next month. So these motors should be available for purchase by early March.

03 WRX engine, complete motor, ECU, engine harness only, 5 speed trans, diffs, axles, breaks, hubs, struts.......full swap. Asking $3,000

04 STI engine, complete motor. Comes with ECU. All you need is the harness. To swap into WRX or STI just use your harness (I can show you how), or to swap into GC8 buy harness online. Asking $4,000 obo

Engines will be available when I complete my swap, estimated early March.

Thanks, --Mark
