hybrid 257 is out and a USDM EJ205 is going in, next few things that i'm gonna get are, STi cluster, wrx/sti pedels, sti shift ****, alk, steering rack bushing, sti grill, sti lip and i am debating if i should get wrx carpet (black) and RS interior (since mine is ugly grey)

changes are well no more ej20, or hybrid its a full ej257 now, interior is all black, suspension bits have been added and exterior has been updated a bit. Still have to get the exterior parts painted and installed and have to install the rest of the crap.
Future mods are well um..
wheels? 17x7,5-8 te37, ssr type c or some rg II"s but who knows.
after that a BBK, probably a 6/4 wilwood set up or some stoptechs.
ill updated when more changes with it

Pics don't show up anymore, probably cause of the age of the post, but sounds like a cool project.
Good to see another GC8 with the STi motor in it. Why'd you go for the JDM 5 trans as opposed to the USDM 6? Was it a pricing thing or is the JDM piece actually better? Just wondering cause we have the USDM 6 speed in our car. Good luck on the rest of your build up.
