well ive decided to keep her and make her into a never made STi legacy.
for now im getting ahold of delta cams in washington to make me a custom grind for power from 3-about7k rpm's
im saving up for a borla header, test pipe with highflow cat, full 2.25inch exhaust with the muffler i just got today.
stripped off the decal and tinted the windows, now i just want to fix the body damage, paint it java black pearl, lower it, put on some nice 17's, probally rota sub zero's new chip or custom burned PROM,
later i really want to swap in a version 4-8 rex motor.
here are the only 2 pictures ive got om my cardomain site i just made.
(pictures to come, stupid computer)[/img]

Mmmmm. . . JBP. Such an awesome color. . . .
Sounds like you've got the right idea.
Whoah, you're going to school for DM? Laurel and I have a good friend who's getting ready to move down there to do just that!

ok got the pictures, ive stripped off the decal, and tinted the windows since then.
and my fireball cannon, couldn't beat the pice at $3.50 plus shipping, hope it sounds good, if not the rex muffler will go on until i get some money for a borla or cobb system.

Why buy a header if your going to swap the motor later? Save the money now

because a header i can get used for around $200, do exhaust etc, then sell that to a buddy of mine with motor etc for like $800 with the cams, tranny harness PCM exhaust etc. then put in a rex motor/trans harness and PCM and put it in my car.
but this wont happen for atleast a year.

sounds like a good idea to me, but why remove the stickers?

i took off the purple to yellow to purple decal on the sides of the car, it looked bad, trust me. i just cant wait to get the money to fix up the body and get her painted.

There is a subby wagon at the bottom of the mountain where my uncle lives with that same decal on the side.

You know that the color you have is likely the rarest Subaru color EVER?
Only available in 1994, and only on special editions (SS, and the Alpine and Ti wagons), and only on a limited basis. It was a paid option for the year, and it wasn't a cheap paid option either.
I know, I'm getting rid of it too. But I wish I didn't have to!!!!

i thought it was, but i wasn't sure, i love the color, just my paint is trashed so im having my dad send me my buffer and im going to try to buff it out, or get her re painted if i cant get the java black pearl.

He wanted it unique.. Hey, slam it, ya know?
I think it looks hawt, he should keep it, sounds like a pretty creative guy, and having a rare car, in a rare color in the 'right' hands, makes all the difference. Then the rest of us won't have to cringe if we see it later.

well i was going to sell it, but ive come around, instead of trying to find a turbo wagon, and swap in a manual trans, im going to go JDM sti engine/trans in it. have a nice daily driver, then work on my 78 chevy truck on the side.
also got to the muffler shop today, had them put on a 2.25inch catback with my new cannon. if anyone can host my video i have a movie of the exhaust as i drive by. the exhaust piping/mount only cost $55 so im happy, also seems to have a snappier throttle responce, and seems to breath a little better on the top end.
ps, i just let out the air in my air ride suspension in the first picture, it tucked the stock wheels, too low/dangerious to drive it like that from washington to arizona, im trying to save up for some new KYB struts/ whiteline springs
