Hey guys, this is my official first post. I am buying a wrecked 2007 STI with under 9000 miles on it to swap into my 99 RS. For the swap I am planning to install and hook up the DCCD, the complete engine and trans, the rear diff, the brakes, the steering wheel, blah blah blah...and I think the suspension too. I had a few questions. I am not picking the car up for about 2 weeks and then the swap process will take a while so I have a few weeks to gather up parts for the swap. I am thinking of the COBB accessport and a full exhaust. The question on the exhaust is when ordering it what do I use as stats? Do i say its for a 2007 STI and it'll fit right on??? Basically what will fit and what gives the best gains and has a nice sound and will work with the COBB accessport? The next question is can I install the Cruise control from the 07 into my NON-CC RS? Can I install ONLY the gauge cluster and not the entire dash and all the climate controls from the STI? I like the RS interior but wanted the STI gauge cluster. Should I get any other parts like engine mounts and who makes them? Tranny mount, shifter bushings, etc and what do I order them for...the STI or the RS? I think that is it for now until I get the car here and see what all my options are.
As a side not I am NOT installing the blue STI interior. I am thinking of getting my hands on some RECARO's out of a new Lancer EVO and installing them. Also, I will have the 2.5 motor and 5 speed trans and rear diff, and all other parts being replaced for sale in the near future. I also have a Legacy 2.0 Twin turbo to get rid of cheap. I will post all of that when I have the actual stuff available. Thanks for the help.
Also as another side note I did try searching but came up with too many results to look through and really didn't find what I wanted....
