You want power but have no money. That's a problem.

Cheap. Reliable. Fast. Pick two.

there are a few people who have done this, not just one.

there's lots of custom work, measuring, PRECISION involved in such a thing. you've gotta keep the frame straight, cut out the rear, weld in new floor pan, use a custom fuel cell, etc...

by the time you're done with it, you may as well have bought an eclipse GSX, an older impreza, or something that came with AWD stock. one member here who had done the AWD swap complained that the thing constantly pulled to the left at high speeds - doesn't sound too safe to me.


neverstop complained about unstable but never proved he did it...

although precision isn't exactly rocket science it is a bitch and a half to take on such a project
