We were gonna paint it purple..but then she changed her mind..so i think we are gonna go black, take off the ugly bump gaurds on the doors, shave every thing smooth, get rid of the rust, maybe lower it usin supra springs and re-spray the wheels.

PROJECT STI


That is going to be the name of the ultimate Subaru 4 door, 2 WD converted to AWD, True sedan-Turbo.

No its not an WRX, It won't have a fart cannon, it will be stock maroon looking, it won't have a spoiler, It will have a different stock hood for the intercooler, The rims will throw it away as a stock crap car,
It will have 2 regular mufflers, and it will become the ultimate sleeper.

The car is in my hands, but the $$ is just not there yet. Wait 1 more year and the project will take lift.
MORE SOON TO COME!

Was a head/cam 355 motor that never ran right after two years of fiddling. Pulled it and it's getting the following:

Lunati Sledgehammer 3.75" stroke crank (for a 383 CID), Eagle Forged H-Beam rods, JE Blower pistons (see what's coming???), a FAST XFI standalone computer, Trick Flow fully ported LT1 heads (just got them back, 219CC Intake runners, 63CC combustion chambers, peak flow of 299CFM intake 224 CFM ehxaust), ported LT4 manifold, and the kicker:

ATI D-1SC Supercharger and about 18-20 pounds of boost. Shooting for 700+ RWHP and 9 second timeslips in a street legal (NOT Emissions legal) car, full weight, full interior, with Air Conditioning.

Should be running by summers end.

That 4th gen celi of yours was slick Coomer smile.gif What ever happened with that car?

Car #3: 98 Accord LX- purchased 5/06, totaled 8/06Car #2: 95 Celica GT- purchased 8/03, current daily driverCar #1: 01 Focus ZX3- purchased 5/01, sold 8/03
Coomer, that 4th gen turned out way nice! I used to have an 89 myself and never thought I'd see one that actually appealed to me until now. Great little commuter car that's for sure.

You need to go to a John Deere dealer to get the paint.

Man that landcruiser has potential.

JDM guy made me do it.
