With the extra parts and labor expect $10K or more and a lot of waiting for parts.

It will fit, but you would need a different clutch and flywheel. The RS gearbox isn't ideal, but you can replace it 4 times (with a WRX gearbox) for what a 6MT costs. Stronger gears help, but aren't bulletproof either.

bringndefinitio - please check your pm's.

Infek - We have 1 left at $500 shipped.

bluegdb - sorry we dont

Dirk - It will fit, but as ban suvs said a wrx 5 speed or sti 6 speed will be ideal for the motor.

s202 - seats bolt right in.

OneManArmy - no 04 JDM headlights, special order. If your interested give me a call/pm/email.

Thanks
Mike

What's the difference between the V4 & V5 seats other than appearance? Also, no rear seats?

ARE THE SEATS STILL AVAILIABLE?
I am semi- interested in the seats. How much does each seat weigh? sorry for the question but it is kind of important.

5FHM214 - Sorry seats are sold.

HomerJay - Other than appearance they are the same. We do have version 3/4 rear's, they are the black and grey colored ones.

02silversuby - Not too sure on the whp difference. The v8 does have more midrange and top end than the v7.

Thanks
Mike
