My 05' STI Swapped into 02 Wagon - Page 2

i agree w/ everyone, that is one BAD wagon...... nice silver on silver, you have any visual plans? like a new paint job, or doing a specific accent color?

That is awesome. Not only to do a swap, but to have the perseverance to complete an entire car. Total respect for this one...

Looks fantastic. Definite sleeper for sure! Brilliant work.

One thing though, I can't help but to wonder if the OEM 02 wagon scoop is going to provide sufficient air towards the large STI TMIC. Perhaps find and get a WRX/STI Sedan scoop to drop on?

Sweet!!! My dream car!

Get my STi scoop painted and "borrow" it for awhile since I am currently Scooby-less...

I have a lot of plans but for the time being I owe my buddy a chuck of coin for it. I sold my old wrx wagon to help fund it but still am in debt. I would however like to paint the wheels and side skirts as well as get the sti hood scoop and splitter. Probably going to stick with silver but would like to paint it after fender flares off a bugeye sedan. Any suggestions? Thinking of painting the bbs' white.

This is the guy ^ that made it happen. and I think you should hang onto the scoop because you need a swapped forester!

Everything was swapped except ic sprayer and rear view mirror. The only thing that is wagon is the body headliner and rear seat. The project turned out to be around 21k or so.
