why? whats wrong with a bigger turbo? and a built impreza engine?... it can be done but the project will strech passed the engine in to building up your tranny to handle the extra torque and your suspension so that it can handle all that extra weight... to relocating the radiator so that you can fit the engine

drivetrain i have a stage 3 Spec clutch mounted to a v7 jdm sti type RA 6 speed with suretrac, and of course the r180 rearend, brembo's all around, etc. engine managment im going to be running the hydra system. no suspenion yet but thats next the car is still not built all the way yet but its well on its way, the only problem is even with all this i still wont be able to beat the dsm world record holder of 7.4 in 1/4 mile. but with a svx stroked to 3.5, alcohol injection, and a 42r....i see it happening Last edited by 00imprezars; 10-15-2006 at 04:14 PM. |

Well if you want to see a SVX in the process lemme know. I live just outside of Worcester. I would love to see your car too. Also there is a guy in Waterbury CT selling en EG33 with 80k on it for $200. His name on here is
04Sti I think.
