Ok just checking.

The regular Impreza (I didn't know they actually sold any of those) only has 165hp... right?

Yeah the older Impala SS is an awesome car. The new one sucks though

far north end.. you're from the area...?

yes i said impreza, swaps are cheaper then buying the actual performance car hence the reason one puts a type R engine into a non type R car.

If you were going to do a swap into an Impreza and cost was a factor, why not buy a mid 90's Impreza sedan and then swap something into that? They are much lighter then the newer Impreza and more of a sleeper... and they are cheaper. Some might say they look better, but that is personal preference.

Personally, I would have bought a mid-late 90's base Impreza and swapped something stupid into that. But then again, I like ugly *** cars (obviously).

If I was going to do a Subaru, I'd start with a Justy 4 door, and then hunt around until I found a wrecked WRX STi. Put 2 and 2 together, and....

^ ... and you've got a chassis designed for a transvere mounted inline three. It's not a direct, or easy swap. I'd probably still have my Justy if it were.

Nothing is ever that easy. But think about a 4 wheel drive Justy, with 400+ hp and somewhere around 450 ft lbs, and, well I don't even think a modded Shogun, or Nissan GTi-R would stand much of a chance.
