Hi all,

I purchased a swapped car off of Kris Myer's and i am pretty sure you have a good idea of which one it is considering the title. It is/was a great car, pulled like a champ but i was having a little too much fun on the track and shattered a bearing and toasted the V5 STI motor needless to say. So after debating what i should do with the car i was thinking out every option from a longblock assembled by RCM to a Millenium Auto 207 longblock (I know, totally different spectrum's). I decided that i was not going to stay with the earlier version sti motor and switch to a USDM Swap for Emissions purposes since ny state will have registration information on the inspection and should be difficult to bootleg. I bought a 06 EJ255 WRX Motor and harness and the fun started to begin. The goal for this car will be a relatively standard Stage 2 more or less and the rest will be suspension.

I am at work now, and cant upload photo's to photobucket but thread will be filled in with more details and photo's tonight also with a link to a bunch of V5 goodies for sale.

Anybody want my merged harness done by zephyr with v5 intake mani, fuel rails, injectors, and power fc w/ commander PM me for a great price i need to start clearing out the garage!!!

What makes it a Panzer? Is there a Porsche designed turret on top housing an 88mm???

Its just what i call it since the paint looks like a tank that had clear coat applied.

It's not a panzer until you stick a big cardboard turret on the roof.
