1998 Subaru Frankenstein

Where do I start? This car is my dad's car and has been his project now since the beginning. I guess the real modding began with the drivetrain and suspension before the current mods of power were done. The car was built to be a Solo II autocrosser, so power wasn't as important as handling. A lot of the parts were changed out of necessity rather than the want for better performance. Here's the list of mods as far as I know

STi short block w/ DOHC RS heads
Greddy turbo manifold
Modified HKS uppipe/Custom pie-cut downpipe
Stock WRX turbo/intercooler
CNR aluminum radiator w/ fans
TurboXS blow off valve
Custom pie-cut intake
Sheepdog exhaust piping w/ Apexi N1 muffler
Full MY2000 drivetrain w/ rear LSD
ACT clutch
Short shifter kit

Tein HA coilovers w/ pillowball mounts
Front camber adjustment
Cusco rear triangle strut bar
Whiteline sway bar
Version 6 STi sway bar

Stoptech slotted rotors
Version 6 STi front calipers
WRX rear calipers
Steel braided brakelines
1999 stock rims w/ 205/50/16 BFgoodridge GeForce KDs

Apexi AVC-R/S-AFC
Walboro 255 lph fuel pump
Denso spark plugs

Sony CD player
Rockford Fosgate front separates
Pioneer rear coaxial

Lightened front bumper beam
DIY front painted emblem

So here's a few pics













Future upgrades include larger injectors (possibly stock STi), front mount intercooler, larger turbo, interior gutting and racing elements, possible rollcage and maybe STi Ver. 6 body or other kit that is nice. Pretty much everything.
