Well I figure I might as well jump on the band wagon since I never really documented my first conversion ( 96 O.B to V1 STi)
I came across a 94 L sedan from MS w/ 68k right after my 02 WRX was stolen, very clean So here's my list so far

Complete harness out of an 04 wrx wagon w/ ecu
04 complete dash incl hvac ( no a/c though who needs it ?)w/ 02 cluster
front & rear sub assy w/ knuckles /hubs from a 04 wrx wagon crossmembers links, ctrl arms etc.
99 r.s front bumper
04 STI gas tank
05 STI springs n struts
all related clutch items from the 04 wagon(xcept the pressure plate )
07 rear wrx seats
06 wrx trans diff ,drive shaft w/ 05 axles
stuck between my V1 closed deck motor ( w/ oil squirter's ) or an 06 2.5 (both built by me )
CP pistons
scat rods
acl race bearings
11mm oil pump
04 heads w/ a p n p job done by me
Fmic no name
750 cc inj ( not sure which Turbo yet )
Perrin VTA tube
04 wrx calipers w/ hps pads

sounds like a solid setup. good luck with it.

sense of nature · 07-28-2008, 06:09 PM

I hope to make some more progress this weekend, here are the EL headers from SS not bad quality, decent welds.

sense of nature · 07-31-2008, 07:19 PM

Not sure how much ya'll know bout these but I'm thinking about running my closed deck production # 303 I've been sitting on it a while & finally got it back from the machine shop fafter a re honing it is tempting , I favor the torque generated by the 2.5
But these oil squirters sure do make it tempting

sense of nature · 07-31-2008, 07:22 PM

Oh yea the bearings are these
