Hello Everyone,
I have a Blue 2001 2.5rs that is going to be getting a full STI swap with a 5 speed STI RA gear set. I am going to be getting a 2007 STI as soon as I get out of school. The 2.5rs will be retired by that point and become my rally car.

why dont you just get a STi? when everything is said and done, you would have enough money to buy a really nice STi. Which you could just change parts to make it look like a RS if thats the look your looking for

that is a good point, but insurance with my driving record I might as well buy a Ferrari. The other thing is that the 2.5RS weighs less and has more potential for upgrades. I want the 5 speed transmission. I want to make it fast 0-100. I value your opinion I just love paying $55.00 a month for full coverage with a $100.00 deductible.

Thank you I have had 4 chassis and I intend to have this one fully build. If I had the money I would build the 2.5rs, bug eye, and the rest just buy to have as collector cars.
