    The gc is the best body style and it the lightest. It like the not expensive lego piece every subaru build should have.

      Paul Kasson yeah, my mate has a 2009 WRX with a bigger turbo and tune, and my 99 gc8 rexy chops him on the highway because by the time he hits boost I’m gone.

    Awesome car! And unique bumper/lip combo. I just picked up a 2000 L sedan and have a 10 year goal to reach lol. Found new inspiration today. Is this swap BAR’d? How hard was it?
    Lmao and the folks here saying “iT’s NoT a ReAl sTi SwAp BeCaUsE yOu DiDn’T dRoP iN a StI MoToR” are also the guys who would overpay for an STi motor motor, swap it in with a WRX 5 speed, and call it a real “STi.” That STi drivetrain is what makes this sweet, not the motor...

    @adrenaline4life233 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Wheel gap is nice. Not too much or little. Plus I like it a little higher, keeps the rally look. Getting my 95 WRX GC8 this week :) But I live in Japan and I’ll be taking her back with me when I move. So excited to own my second subie

    Awesome car Javier. Thanks for sharing!
    Dude - hill climb will likely require a cage or at least a roll bar - but would be awesome. You should think about coming out to RallyX events in NORCAL. We have races in Sac and Santa Rosa. Look up NORCAL RallyX if interested. Cheers - love the car - stoked you did it your self and bro!!! Awesome man! 😁😁😁

    Nice car, I've owned a few genuine JDM (right hand drive) gc8s. EJ205 99 WRX, EJ207 99 STI, and now a EJ20k 97 STI type ra V-limited in Factory navy blue (one of 555) Good cars for the money. Can make a good 350hp with just bolt ons. I'd watch out for the USDM EJ205 though there internals aren't as beefy as the 20k and 207.

      I mean it’ll feel like you’re hurting the clutch but in a sense (my opinion) the launch is smoother and easier on your drivetrain.
