Or some of us actually have mortgages and other bills to pay.
It's gonna be hard for you to sell your stuff if you insult people.
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)
-just my opinion, not meant to offend

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.

I've just wasted 15 minutes of my life reading this. Sell your stuff and stop bickering...that's what this part of the forum is for. Sheesh. And don't bag on me cause I said something (look at the title).

Happy New year everyone!
I got good news......
My JDM STI engine and driveline has arrived. Everything looks good. I will start cleaning things up, and getting ready to do the swap.
My parts for sale are getting closer to being available for purchase!
I'll keep you all posted.

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
