Subbie Krew... need your help
Checking in late, and I'm sure it's already been said a gajillion times, but when you buy the STi, you're not just paying for go-fast parts, you're paying for a lot more reliability as well. If I were planning on doing anything more than the basic breathing mods I wouldn't have gotten this car.

Why bother? At that point you might as well get a 2nd gen Forrester shell and do the STi swap. It's a shitload more bang for the buck once it's all done. I have seen a few and driven them directly compared to the STi and it is impressive to say the least.
Ooops meant first gen Forester not 2nd.

He is stupid so whats it matter. If I were going through all that work I would pick the Forester shell over the 2.5 all day especially considering weight to power advantage and the fact that it still isn't all that common. Finding a low buck first gen that hasn't been beat to hell is a lot easier than a 2.5 and insurance will be dirt cheap...but underneath the skin it is all STi.
