      They drift so well! Extremely controllable, I can't wait to get more power in it so I can really snap the tires loose. Gonna end up with a full mustang drivetrain swap, much more reliable and cheap to fix compared to the subie. I don't foresee any major issues to getting this motor in, we're not afraid to hack the car up to fit it. I already want to cut and weld exhaust tunnels into the body so I can just run the pipe straight back and eliminate dragging exhaust. There's probably gonna be a fairly large amount of engine hanging out of the hood, especially with a carbureted motor (going old school, way easier to install and tune, plus it looks and sounds badass). I'm just gonna get a waterproof boot for the distributor and a waterproof pre-filter for my air cleaner.

            Decided to keep it, modded the front suspension, gutted more weight, and i drifted it at my first clubloose north event. Here's how she sits now.

                  Hahaha that exhaust na ej's make dick all power and there is no solution pwr wise unless you do a conversion, a 5.0 would pretty sweet get ram air under a wrx hood scoop just to give it that bit more stealth.

                  cops seem to be fairly nice in the US , here in Aus they fine you for almost every modification I lost my licence for my car being to low......I was moving house

                    Took her to my second event, this time with the angle mods, better rear suspension (raceland springs on stock legacy shocks, such quality! ), and a few other things. It ran perfectly throughout the day, without a hitch. The only minor thing that happened was I blew up my fourth motor. Got another ej25 block to throw in for the next event before it goes under the knife this winter.
                    Here's some pics, and a video

                    One more event this year, possibly two if this motor survives the next event.

                          Haha that wing is made from metal roofing drip edge, wood roof strapping, two pieces of carbon fiber cut out of a smashed up hood, angle iron for mounts, and supports plasma'd out of a piece of steel.

                            Picking up my R200 diff this friday for 50$, gonna start piecing together the swap. Decided to ditch the 5.0 in favor of the strong but slightly heavier 5.8 351w.
