My RSTI build
 

So I've wanted to build a RSTI since I had my L wagon back 4 or 5 years ago. I had an 04 STI which was a helluva lot of fun. I came upon a full 04 sti drivetrain for a great price and I ended up selling my STI and buying a 98 RS coup with a blown head gasket. This RS car was the village bicycle, it's been through then hands of atleast 3 other members of i-club.

I didn't have a garage so I built a carport with stone pavers and bought a canvas carport tent and started the swap this last summer.

I didn't know how many miles were on the motor, or if it had any problems, so I sent the motor off to FW Motorsports for a motor build while I did the drivetrain swap. Good thing I had some good friends to help me along the way with this project!

The drivetrain swap is all done, the harness was merged by I-Wire (who's freaking awesome)
