Re: Project GC8 AKA USDM STi Killer

Well I just want everyone to know I've bounced back and plan on learning from my mistakes and using this to make an even better Subaru.

I learned A LOT from my last build, like what a car does without an FPR And the chassis was a great starting point for this build but I knew right away it wouldn't be a good car for the final build and I would need a new chassis due to all of the cancer spots.

With this chassis, it's getting everything Sarah didn't have. The suspension was tight in some areas and terrible in others thanks to the combination of stock 11 year old RS parts and newer STi parts. I basically want to make the suspension and handling BETTER than the engine performance, right now it was decent but I felt it was a little unbalanced and that's totally not my style. I would rather have a car that handles better than it goes in a straight line.

I'm putting together a new list of parts still but I can say it'll have Group N engine/tranny mounts along with ALL new bushings.
