damn SpecR every time I see your builds my jaw drops...I would have pulled my hair out by now haha. Then again I am still learning bits here and there. Cannot wait to see this bad boy finished. I love Impreza's and I almost got one but it was Automatic so I said no...I will get one eventually. My dream would be a 99 22b....car is godly.

thanks man, i actually finished this car a couple months ago. i just havent posted pics yet. i will eventually.

there were some minor hiccups here and there, but the motor fired up on the first crank, no check engine lights or anything, so it was all worth it in the end.

edit: more pics


got some help from my trusted alarm installer/wiring/stereo guy. he got the alarm out in no time.


alarm out, just funny 99/02 harnesses coexisting


everything out, bare firewall, yay. old harness sitting in passenger footwelll


the SMJ wiring /butt connector nest out of the car


started to get the new harness in..


engine bay portion/plugs are in...


The fuel pump controller ground wiring that I-wire sets aside for you. The one wire that is required to be soldered with his harness.

Passenger footwell


It meets with this wire, passenger rear.



Just behind the passenger seat







as for subaru's khazzy, its a mixed bag for me to be honest.

they're awesome cars and fun to drive, but they're not without quirks. unless everything is upgraded to sti parts, certain parts will just break. even then, they throw rod bearings like rotaries blow apex seals. theres also the "cool" factor of driving a swapped 99-01 RS coupe, as they're relatively rare and highly sought after.

any progress in 6 month?

this thread is pretty interesting

Holy hell, I had no idea this thread even existed... h:
I had to do some minor electrical work with the old GTi, but it was nowhere near as complex as a harness merge.

car is running good. hmm in the 6 months or so, new AC lines, new compressor/drier, got another tune and another turbo - a rebuilt TD04 19T by Blouch turbos. I've got some other stuff for the car, but I'm scratching for some $$$ to get the whole car repainted.
