Hi Guys,
Well after owning 2 superb scoobs ( STI RA V-LTD, RB5), I'm now wanting a 3rd but for the track only.
I currently have a 205 GTI trackday car and want to expand my collection from 1 car to 2 cars:norty: .
Now I was thinking of buying a cheap STI for about £2-3k and rebuild the shell with roll-cage, uprated suspension,brakes you know the works well within reason really (money).
Then I thought it'll probably be easier to just buy a shell and work up from that, without the need to strip a complete car then start rebuilding.
Now I've been offered a 1995 WRX shell and I mean bare shell, which is perfect, but what I would like to know is the following :
1. Will all the mounts on the WRX be the same as on the STI model, i.e. Gearbox, engine, suspension mounts.
