    Love, It's what makes a Subaru, a Subaru.... but, LUST.... that's a GC8, heh. Saw one yesterday on my way home from work. The elusive green with gold wheels. Unicorn if I'd ever seen one.

    Funny, I was talking the other day with some friends. We were saying we should all chip in and buy the VX at the dealership nearby. Pick up a wrecked STi from any number of sellers (ya, there are TONS out there), and start our mind boggling FULL SWAP with the VX.

    7 of us, all wrench turners, 2 having done MANY swaps, and all willing to throw in to the monetary and blood/sweat/tears pot.. Even have big support from 2 local renowned tuner shops (they love me since I supply them with game swag for their track days and open houses, heh). One of those projects you expect to NEVER get finished due to fabbing and modifications.... essentially, looking at a stage 3 STi with a VX body. Seen a FULL STi engine/drivetrain/electrical swap on a Prelude, and it just gets ya thinking....

    Yes, we were having drinks when we were talking about this, heh.
