    no my head guy is slow, my CAD/CAM guy is an inexperienced newb and I've spent $$$$ in the past two years keeping the house cool in the summer and shit flowing to the sewer.

    I got bored and decided to retrofit my projectors with 04 STi leveling motors, figured if I had an 04 STi harness I should make full use of it.

    progress... slow but steady

    no room with the current core. once I get the other core in you won't see them. For now it will have to look like the Chaparral Vroom car fucked a wagon.

    Oh nice an OEM dash.

    I got a spare one, you know you want it... even has your old modded cluster and comes with a harness and ECU.

    By the way JPM has quite a few pieces in the works for me so the OEM dash will have to do for now.

    I still have to trim and modify the fender liners for a final install but these line up with the 02-03 brake ducts in the bumper cover. You'll have to purchase the additional parts for the fender liner for the duct to work but well worth the money. I'll post pics in a few months once I mod the fender liners

    He will probably get this project going sooner than the one I just picked up so I can't say anything anymore.

    Looking good b reel. Is that bedliner painted on the brake ducting or that how it came?

    b reel Active Member

    yep bedliner and not the rattle can type.

    as for the tie-rods, I have RCA's to put on just haven't done it yet.

    being that it was already stripped down to the shell, I donated it for an artificial reef a few years back.
