Please help - looking for st205 conversion info. Options

[silverlude]

Ok, let it begin.

First of all - yes, I am looking for info to do a st205 conversion. Yes, I have searched and cannot find much useful info.

I don't want to waste anyone's time with this same old topic, so if you don't want to help, please hit the back button on your browser now. Also, if you have no real useful info, please do not post such things as "why don't you just import?" "why don't you just buy a DSM/5th gen All-Trac/EVO/WRX/VR-4...?" "It's not worth the time/money..." etc.

Bottom line is we have time/car/money and are looking for some great fun.

What I am looking for is USEFUL info on the conversion. Either access to someone who has done it before or someone who knows just what it is going to take.

We are also looking for connections to get some major parts. Anyone with personal experience getting clips, or possibly full parts-only cars from Japan or UK would be an asset.

Thanks in advance.

So, I'm trying to get our shopping list put together so we can start getting junk imported.

Off the top of my head I come up with needing the following items. Please feel free to reply with other items I am missing so we can come up with a complete list.

Front Clip: includes
-3sgte
-Turbo
-ECU
-4wd M/T
-TMIC
-other wiring harnesses, linkages & little bits
-front axles, hopefully driveshaft/rear axles

Parts for rear suspension/drive
-rear diff
-center support bearings front/rear
-rear cross member
-axle carriers

I am also looking for info on what, if anything needs to be changed on the strut rods and suspension arms 1+2

I also would like to know if anyone can tell me how much of the above listed items are usable from the 5th gen All-trac.

Thanks 6GC community.
