Well to un-hijack the other thread..


My possible future dream-setup if the whole Legacy GT dream doesnt work out (which it probably wont)

SVX turbo-charged. 6-speed. and a custom front end.. something like

this

i just want the more snub-nosed impreza look rather than the sleek SVX front... i have a H-6 under the hood... why pretend to be "cute" and "clean".


also definetly upgrade the brakes....

however... i think i will eventually go through with this. my SVX was a great conversation piece.. it seems subaru owners regard it as "not the fastest thing out there but a damn cool car and a fun one at that"

yeah the hood is crap. i like the front end though. much better that the usual pointed nose. I think it might look neat with a small legacy-esque hood scoop

The mind starts ticking when I think of expensive options... like perhaps putting the B9 engine in so i have a newer platform to work from...Cobb's time attack car actually ahd a turbo-charged B9 engine and they were looking at 900-1000 HP i believe...
