yea the stance is not that bad, its like 7/16" lower in the rear but i expected that since its a wagon.

yea im exited for this saturday, putting in the manual tranny! ive got a factory clutch kit with flywheel, cobb full adj. short throw shifter, cobb front shifter bushings, kartboy rear bushing and a set of kartboy crossmember bushings for it that are on there way. the tranny is out of a 98' ob, its got 4.11 so i need to put my old diffy back in since im running a 98 ob auto with 3.90 right now, with an open rear diff.

Wow. Looks good. Sounds like you've got you're mods all lined up. Jakes got some brakes for you when the tranny's done.
What year STi did the susp. come off of?

ive got OB breaks already, tranny went in today with no problems. just need to get a new speedo cable.

to bad my fuel pump took a dump on me about 2hrs after i did the swap! im going to the junk yard in the morning to get a "new" one, just to get by for now untill i got some $ for a walbero.
