    Congrats man! It's looking great! I just got my swap on the road in the past month and a half, working out all the bugs and its ripping! (Mine is a 98 base model coupe with a 2002 WRX swap) iWire for the win, it fired up on the first attempt! Mine is running solid and is already tuned because it came from a tuned WRX and I used all the parts it was tuned for from my donor. I did a power steering delete because I wanted to keep it simple. I live near the beach and its always cool so I did an AC delete too. I am about to get into paint and body work. Not sure if I'm going to take it on myself, I've been trying to find a shop to quote a paint job and nobody will even quote it, they are all booked solid on profitable insurance jobs and won't do "just a paint job" sheesh! Thanks for the inspiration!

      Sounds like a sweet and sorted little car!! Hope you can find someone that is willing!! Maybe they will have a slow season that’ll allow a shop to take the job in. It’s definitely a large amount of time involved :/

    Looks great man!!! just keep an eye on it maybe invest in a small extinguisher nice to have anyways. Keep us posted man! P.s. what setup do you have for drivetrain?

      Thanks man turned out better than I expected. Yeah I think that’s on the list of items to buy after that scare. So it’s an version 7 full 6spd,axles,hubs,brembos swap and then now usdm 05 wrx with vf30 and supporting mods.

    Looks great man, thinking about painting my 99 wrx wagon in gloss yellow should I hire someone to do it or do it myself, I’m good with a spray can but I’ve never used a spray gun

    Can you share the paint you used for this job? Primer,paint, clear coat. Where you order it from. Thanks!

    • @TKirkMedia
      @TKirkMedia  2 роки тому +1

      The primer is a high build primer in the color grey (upol) and the base coat was mixed at space age paints in arizona I asked for rally blue pearl but I think that this is world rally blue. The can was marked with matrix I believe and the same supplier I used for the clear coat
