Man Im jealous. Gonna be a fun car. Its funny how people are so afraid to deal in cash.

Is this going to be a race car or a street car?
What are your plans for the bottom end and drivetrain (other than the clutch)?

EklipzGSXkid · 01-31-2011, 04:36 PM

Thank you! It's going to have a liscense plate and baby seat in the back, Just like all the other cars I've built!!! As for the engine/drivetrain, I'm not sure yet. I've spent a bit of the day today looking around at options, But I'm still open to alot of different choices. I'm sure before the week is over I will figure it out. I'm going to try to follow through with all of this rather then order everything and sell the car and get stuck with all the parts like usual.

Tonight I'm going to start tearing it apart when I get a chance between working on the other cars and getting the few remaining parts packaged up for people that I need to ship out. I'm hoping to have it stripped within the next two or so days but it's going to be a bit hard for me (I'm in the middle of doing two other subaru's, and 5 gsx's). It's my fault though, I pack all this on me at once.. In a sense, I guess it's stressful but at the same time when there is nothing to do, It's stressful too.

Well good luck, you sound like a busy guy. I would go LR2.4, but thats just my dream. If you decide you dont want the parts I could take'em of your hands haha

If I decide to sell the car before finishing a build, I will definatly contact you. you have alot of nice mods the way it is though!

vernach14 · 01-31-2011, 06:52 PM

i wish i could just buy an evo to rip it apart and build it into a monster. good luck with everything cant wait to see this when its finished.

DPancoast · 01-31-2011, 07:01 PM

always loved white evos.

it'll be cool to see where this goes with no plans really. usually people map it out and its not really that exciting.

ToMs2jz · 02-01-2011, 02:46 AM

Nice! Any plans for the exterior?

EklipzGSXkid · 02-01-2011, 03:07 AM

Thank you again! I don't have many if any plans for the exterior as of right now.

Should be a bit of a change in pictures, Being most all of my pictures are from the other half of my garage. I started utilizing all the space now ha ha.

stover · 02-01-2011, 06:56 PM

white ones are the fastest! nice pickup

jjm4life · 02-01-2011, 07:41 PM

white is the fastest color for sure, esp. witha hta37. looks great for such crazy high mileage too.

plans to build the block or are you just going to throw that buschur kit on there and hope for the best?

Forc3 F3d · 02-01-2011, 09:25 PM

White is definitely not the fastest... Elctric blue

Nice pick up rob. Looking forward to the build, maybe keeping this one for more than a month too!

01 Trans-Am WS6 · 02-05-2011, 08:35 PM

How you all saying white is the fastest or blue...we all know those black ones can run!! ;)

EklipzGSXkid · 02-10-2011, 01:58 PM

No longer keeping the car. It's being picked up this weekend. The person who purchased my wrx that I just did in white with a 06' conversion and fully built sti motor wants this one now aswell. He's giving me a very hard to refuse cash offer plus that car back as a white evo is what he originally wanted (Just didn't have this one last month when he came up to get the subaru). I'll be getting another evo once I find one so then I can use all the parts that were meant for this build, On the next one.

AlterEvo · 02-10-2011, 02:55 PM

nice purchase, you need any help or anything let me know.

Forc3 F3d · 02-10-2011, 03:31 PM

I don't understand how you do that sometimes.
