He's making a two door STI? SWEET!!! 
The GC8 should be a lot of fun once you get everything swapped over. Poor poor STI, looks like it was rallied into a light pole. I always preferred the look of the older cars.

it was actually a factory freak. it dyno'd at 300awhp i believe.
basically lol, the driver was incompetant and took a turn so fast and slid into a tree then almost rollled beack into a house. to give you an idea how sharp the turn and how fast he was i think at like 80mph +/- on a dry 90* summer day with the sticky tires and still slid out.

Im very very jealous. Ive ALWAYS wanted to do an STi swap in a 2.5rs. Keep this thread updated my man.
EDIT: 300awhp stock? Yeah, no freaking **** it was a factory freak..... They usually dyno around 250.

lets see a dyno sheet, theres no way in hell a stock STI dynoed 300awhp. they dyno around 250awhp stock.

Nice car 
I have a 98RS coupe w.02 WRX swap. I ran a 13.0 @ 107 w/stg 2 mods and my flash. I just recently threw a 20G, 800cc, FMIC etc... on it. Haven't been back to the track yet tho.
The mechanical portion of the swap is really simple. Took me 2 days doing it alone. Just make sure you use the front crossmember from the STI!! The wiring...well...messy :P

I agree with Mnatvyc1223. I call BS as well. Not saying your lying..... maybe your buddy is or maybe the dyno was broken lol. Thats a bit much for a stock STi

Thats fine. as a matter of fact i havent seen a dyno sheet. the guy that crashed it told us, and is still looking for the sheet. There where a few people that claimed to see it so i took there word for it. and the dyno's not broken, its a very accurate dyno
