So here's what I've learned about the Forester XTs post 02 so far:
Power:
-Motor: 2.5L
-Turbo: TD04
- Internals: Same as STi
- AVCS: same as STi
*All most all motor mods from GD WRX & STi work on the Forester including Exhaust
Suspension:
-Interchangeable with GD WRX & STi
Brakes:
-Can swap any 5x100 WRX/STi brakes on them
Drivetrain:
- 5spd - Stronger than WRX, but yes, weaker than STi. Supposedly the old STi 5MTs from Japan.
Other Specs:
-Weight: Lighter than the STi
I'm going to have one fast as hell Forester STi...

I don't want to sell the STi, I absolutely love the STi But I really want to do what is smart and am trying to justify keeping the STi when it makes no sense because I am addicted to the STi
Plus I can rock the hell out of an FXT... might just blow your little bugeye doors off mayne!!! 2.5T FTW!!
or
I'm partial to White on Gold still so we will see.

Well it is official. Got my assignment papers today and it does indeed read Kadena on the location!
I support the forrester decision Steven. There was a white FXT that LIC did a partial conversion on with a 6 spd, slammed, white, the entire works and it was seriously badass. I used to see it on 680N a few times when comming home from work. And then there was another FXT they did a whole job on that was freakin stellar as well with a I believe crawford block, GT35 and some misc items with the stock 4EAT and it made about 400ish whp i think. Adam's forrester is pretty nice as well. I've ridden in that and it moves pretty well for just having a VF39 and a bunch of suspension done to it!
