From the Creator of the FrankenBRAT “Return of the King(RX) 4/19.

From the depths of my little garage, I am about to unlease another creation into SoCal.

Backstory
In the late 80's Subaru took a typical 80's 2 door econohatch, they crammed in a puny turbo motor and then hooked it up with a 5 speed fulltime 4wd with a center diff lock and a high low transmission. In the back they installed a mechanical LSD. Then the wrapped it with a nice body kit. They dubbed it the RX sold it from 1987 to about 1989.

Now having obtained that same body I will be bringing this creation back to life with a life with a new heart. (insert sinister pipe organ music and thunder)

I have in the works a ej22T that will be plopped into this chassis. Heads were gasket ported, high flow exhaust and a WRX TMIC to improve performance. I hope to increase the HP over to stock 167 HP that the EJ22T was rated at from the factory to about 200 or so.

200 HP in a 2700 lb car....:banana:

so barring any setbacks..... This should be all set to fire up on April 19th.

Come one down for a BBQ and stuff. I might be able to arrange for garage space for other people to do stuff as well...

Will post directions when the day is coming up.
