ok so this is the story!
I owned a 2003 WRX WRB and loved the thing!!!
this is it prior to December 20th, 2008
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]one day i was being really stupid with a group of friends(also subaru owners) and we were driving on a dirt road and got a little wild. needless to say i rolled it down a 50ft embankment and rolled it 2 1/2 times. came to rest on my driver side, shoulder broke the driver window and it was a mess...
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]well my love for my subaru kicked into overdrive! instead of totalling it i made it my project!
This caused a lot of drama and turmoil within my family. But none the less my love for my car and the subaru community was too great.
-This is how it began, i bought a body completely stripped from the subaru recycling center in Rancho Cordova. It was in a front end accident! some guy in his black 06 TR ran it into a tree or something and decimated the front end. *It had the infamous Gunattics sticker on the rear window.

-Swapped the wiring harness
-swapped the motor including new clutch
-swapped all drivetrain
all with the help of SubyTech... Thanks Jerry!!![You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]-from a local member picked up a front bumper and a radiator support for an 05 STI. Got all that in place and bought all components for an 05 sti front end like fenders.
at this point in time a co-worker of my fathers had a son that wrecked his 05 sti and wanted to get rid of it(moreso it was a reminder of pain for his family) so i went and picked up the wrecked car and parked it outback. tore that thing to pieces!!! got the brembos, intercooler, doors, interior, and a lot of other miscellaneous parts off of it and threw them on my car! : banana :
-after this point all i needed was the pieces and bolts to hold the entire thing together (subarugenuineparts.com and sonora subaru)
well finally on december 20th, 2009 exactly a year later i registered the car for road use and got insurance on it once more!
December 20th, 2009:
