Carbon Fiber Doors, CF WRC mirrors, JDM STI Sport (22b style) front bumper, Recaro SPG seats, Sparco 6-pt harnesses,HID (6k) upgrade, Blacked out headlights, ver. 6 grill, JDM Nardi 3-spoke steering wheel, 18" Prodrive GC-05f (5-spoke gunmetal) wheels, Rotora 6-piston, 355 mm front brakes, Perrin heavy duty rear sway bar mounts, perrin front swaybar end links, perrin ALK. Going to paint it Evo MR Grey. Should be done in a few weeks. post more pictures.

Red face Re: Project Phoenix (JDM ver. 8 into CF coupe)

It's been such a long time I forgot that I made this thread, and made a new one. But it's in a different forum, so for all you hardcore subi fans, here's some updates......
It's almost out of paint, the side moldings are shaved and all the body work is done. should have it back sometime next week for the final batch of parts I need to make it street legal. Once I get it to spec, I'm going down to pass emissions, then get it inspected & registered. Then I have A JUN WG actuator and a Prodrive 3-port boost solenoid to get it closer to 330-350 whp and i'm going to add a map for c16.













/\ Installing once I get it back from paint.

Been a while since I updated this.
Got it all street legal and running, driven a few 1000 KM's, running very good at 1.1 bar (about 16 psi).

Still some more parts to track down and get, but it's coming together quite well. Interior is almost done, installed the SS door sill trim. Now I need to get some door cards made and get 3 52mm defi's for the Radio delete gauge plate and I should be good to go. Getting Red powdercoated rear JDM Brembo calipers in a few weeks.
CF front lip is in the works, and also side skirts are gonna be coming soon!
Need to get some better Rollcage padding, this was just to pass tech inspection at Firebird.








Scored a sweet S202 CF adj. (2-way) Spoiler.

I Dunno, little less than $25k I figure.

Here's a short clip a friend took during a recent cruise. We're gonna try and get some better quality daytime shots soon!

I should have the exterior complete in the next few weeks. Getting color matched side skirts in the next week or so, Burn-up style CF front lip, and red Powdercoated rear Brembos, and calling it a day! (For now......)
I have to install front & rear tow hooks to pass tech, so I picked up a set of Nukabe tow hooks from Goodspeed in Tempe, Red to match the Brakes (and it was the only set left in stock. )
