Looking for an STi Swap
 
We're Looking for a local BR-Z / FRS owner who wants to test fit a swap for an STi Turbo'ed Engine into their car. I have the complete EJ motor on site. We'll drop the stock motor and mock up the new one at no cost you to you.

How long do you need the car for?

Why do no shops in Florida want to do anything fun like this?

If you were located closer, I'd be very tempted :drool:. Does the lucky owner get to keep the STi motor or is this just a test fit?

Once we determine what's required to make it fit, we'll be offering these as swap kits.

Because they're not Weapons Grade ;)

I'm located literally around the corner. Drove by your shop today, actually.

Every time someone posts something like this I wish I had a second car so I could be without mine for a time.

Anxious to see how this turns out.

I think someone should buy this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/JDM-Subaru-I...8e2d2d&vxp=mtr

And we'll install it for free.

Better to buy one without the trans, me thinks.
