Hey guys. Chuckthefuk just let me know about this forum, i neve even knew it existed.
anyway I have always been in to rwd cars, owned 3 240sx's all sr'd with Vmount IC setups and 2 FC's (rotorys suck by the way).
For some reason i went against my will and bought a CanJam built 98 GC with a complete 04 jdm ej20 sti and 6spd. I loved the car but had to sell when i was offered 3k more than i bought it for.
So im building my own.
1998 leggy GT - black
Blew the engine at one of my track days at shannonville so i decided to go STi.
complete swap: usdm DBW engine/trans/rear end/brakes.
the swap is i would say 80% done, but at the tedious wiring stage.
Few other goodies to go with it are Enkei rpf01 17X8 +45 wheels to clear the calipers and the old school Falken azenis rt215 in a 225/45/17
Stainless brake lines all round
Green stuff pads
Eibach prokit lowering springs on us spec sti shocks
Buddy club racing seat
Sparco 3 inch harness
Autometer something or other gauges
sti cluster
Nardi steering wheel with megan QR and KHB hub
and a bunch of stuff im forgetting.
Pics will be up soon when im done.
I will hopefully have it running and on the track by the end of the month.
If you have ever considered doing the swap i say go for it. Its really not that hard, just takes time and patience.
