Info on the donor car:
VIN#: JF1GD70605L52304
Purchased from Marx All in One, LLC in October of 2010.
The STI was involved in a single car rollover.
At the time of purchase the odometer read 76,000 miles.
I have all the paperwork from this purchase. Even a carfax report.
I think I caught everything. If I missed something or anything is unclear let me know. All STI parts came from the same donor car.
Pros:
Since the swap was completed this car has been trailered to Virginia, drove back and drove multiple times to Ft Leonardwood, MO and back to Minnesota. It is in sound mechanical condition. No fluid leaks. Mechanically in great shape. Body and interior are in good shape. DCCD works, HVAC system works, Runs great!
Cons:
A/C doesn't work, but everything is installed. I never fixed it because I thought I might remove it completely.
Horn doesn't work
No rear diff temp sensor (lights up on dash)
Airbag light is on. In my limited spare time I'll try to track that down too.
Paint job on the hood doesn't match the best. But goes unnoticed to most.
Last winter I hit the ditch pretty hard, replaced front bumper and pass side axle.
