After shearing off a flywheel from my crank @ a local track day,the car was reborn w/a STi short block and custom turbo kit built by Vakamon,now known as R&D automotive.
They are our local Suby gurus.
With this set up the car pulled low 14's w/absolutely no tune and pretty much stock everything on 7 lbs.
It couldn't idle and smoked really bad!!!

Things are starting to get interesting!!!
These are pics of the car fresh out of the shop,with a 2004 STi conversion!!
I found a wreck at a local auction,some smart kid thought he was a hero driver and flipped the STi.
The best part is that the wreck only had 40 miles!!!
That's right I said 40 miles,the car still had temporary plates!!

So,what do you do with a STi converted RS?
Why,you have the shop do a v-mount!!!!!!
Actually,I was convinced to do it by the shop's owner.
He made me an offer I couldn't refuse.
