EDIT: grammar

uh, I wouldnt want my handling to go down the drain because my car looks cool. so basically then this wagon is like a mustang, fast untill it has to turn?

Sorry, not trying to hate here but I'm just not a fan of the slammed look. Other than that the wagon looks great and if it has a STi swap thats even better.

No, if thats the same 04 wagon im thinking of it is a flat out beast,,,, kinda. It was a full conversion from a 2004 2.5TS (presumably) to an STi. Everything in it is straight out of an STi, seats, engine, tranny, body, headlights, you name it and its in there. Its sad to hear that it was sold, and not to me .

dude this thing has about every STI part imaginable on it. Tein Coil overs. It's slammed for the pictures. I'm pretty sure this thing could make your car look stupid in the handling department. that's the wonder of coil overs.

maybe it's time to comb through the picture galleries if you haven't done so already.

i'm with killian...not a fan of the slammed look regardless of how well it handles. the STi swap sounds delish, but i would raise the suspension if i were to be seen in it.

again, like one man said, the suspension was probabally only dropped that low for the photoshoot. U'd barely be able to get onto a hill without killing ur front bumper with it that low and im sure the owner didnt want his beauty to get all scratched up.
