Hehehe...it's not as fun when you actually start tearing things out...and it definitely won't be very fun getting the subframe/ suspension/ gas tank out and put on the RS.

I can already say that there aren't going to be many parts available after the swap is done, besides doors, glass, some interior panel pieces, carbon fiber hood scoop, carbon fiber trunk with an STi wing, taillights and possibly exhaust and DP.

oh and pulling out stuff is easy. it's trying to remember how everything goes back in is when it becomes a pain in the butt.

I believe the head gasket is gone...If they want the motor regardless for a project, they can buy it...but they can contact me if they want it...maybe $500.
