STi GC rollcall.
Hey guys,
Just curious as to how many STi swapped GC's or GM,if you prefer to be technical,are on I-Club forums.
I have a '98 2.5 RS with an 04 drivetrain,Aerosims carbon fiber bodykit,custom v-mount intercooler set-up,and a few other tricks.
There is another HIIC member contemplating an 05 swap.I'm just curious as to how rare an STi swap really is.
Currently,I am the only STi swapped GC/GM driver in the state,unless someone on the neighbor islands has one I haven't heard of.
Here's a couple pics of my baby.
Please represent!!!
Thanks in advance!!!

My Impreza has rust, so I don't really want to swap it. I'm just gonna do a rear-disc conversion and tarbo my ej22 using this http://www.rs25.com/forums/f7/t10779...arts-list.html .
When the rust finally takes my car, I'll definitely get another GC (or GM) and swap it myself
My GC4
Performance: KYB AGX, Whiteline fsb, Helix front endlinks, 17mm WRX rsb, 17x7.5 Sub-Zero's with Toyo T1S 225/45, WRX front brakes with Brembo rotors and Akebono pads, and a Borla cbe.

Oh boy oh boy I have one!!! It's great to see someone else with the hoodprop issue, but if I may suggest, the stock one fits perfectly along the firewall and clips into a brake line plastic tab. A bit better than a broomstick lol.
My car has the '07 EJ255 WRX, and is currently getting a custom 3" hard inlet, garrett t28/evo3 16g hybrid, and FMIC with ultra custom piping; I hope to finish it in two weeks.
MonsterGC, when you plan on finishing?

I love Kauai,I really don't know anything thats not touristy there.
Kauai is truly paradise,lots of waterfalls,and the Wailua river is nice too.
Go to the fern grotto if you get a chance,IIRC,you ride a boat up the river to get there,it's where they filmed King Kong,and Apocalypse now,and a few other movies.
Other than that I don't know what else there is to do on Kauai,other than relax.
Try to pm sneezerboi,he's from Kauai,he might give you some suggestions.
