Ive seen a few STI swaped Foresters online. I think you will be the only one in GA Sent from my Android powered HTC HD2
there's another one hanging our around atlanta. I can't remember his name though. Pretty sure it used to be owned by the drummer of Weezer.
Needs to be renamed Fozzenstein. Love the white on gold. I have not seen a forester of this body style with the transplant. Can't wait to see the results.
but the hippie sticker was so fitting for a Fozzy. Well at least slap a DeKalb county decal on the tag then
yeah i'm just looking for one projector (no need for headlight housings). preferably TSX, but i'd settle for an STi, TL, TSX-R, S2K, etc. going to swap out the stock Buell projector for a better one.
There is one up at Subaru of Kennesaw that is just nice. The owner showed it to me a week or so ago and I was really impressed. I have always thought they were pretty cool when done right. Good luck guys.
It is on hold till the suby is done. But the big block is going in the 66 F250, the fox is getting a 32v 4.6 liter.
The 32V in the fox is an awesome swap. I have seen a few before, they are really cool when done right. Good luck.
Still got the stock suspension off the Foz? Might take a peek at it if you do when I'm up for install day.
Awesome! And you're going with the bugeye interior still correct? Don't let me forget to send you that estimate tomorrow.
Was up at Allpro today. The block for this project was there. Took a few shots. I believe they are Darton sleeves. A stock block for Comparison. The heads are ported and polished (I think) and it definitely has oversized valves. Also, the floor mats Patrick showed off the other day are really really nice.
