idk if any of u herd of the forester STI its insnae lookin backed up by alot of power. its basically got an impreza STi motor in it which i think was smart. anyway im planin on buyin an ordinary 98 forester and putin in a STi motor in it. but thats only the easy part hard to belive. the hard part is to acually find a body kits and stuff for it. i cant find it anywere so im askin all who read this to reply wit an adress of a site that u no has parts for a forester. for those who want to see the forester STi visit this site

That is pretty cool, in a BMW X3 sort-of-way. STis are great cars!

I definately would not say Subie engine swaps are easy.

Subaru swap + not easy = understatement

I wouldn't do a body kit. If anything, I'd find someone to import the STi body parts.

That's pretty rad.

I agree. Get the STi parts. More rare than any usdm body kit would be. Even if it is a Forester with an STi motor. It'd have that much more badass to it.

Why dont you just buy an Impreza with an STi engine already fitted. It'll be a lot cheaper and alot less hassel. Not trying to be awkward but looking at it another way. :)

It is and interesting looking car, but an impreza will have better handling and quicker as its lighter.

Im in love with the new WRX STi V-Limited :lick: :lick: :lick: only 555 made though. :(

You would spend the same if not less money and be faster, more unique, and just plain cooler with a 3.0 liter H6 swap, twin turbos, and the STi 6 speed and drivetrain
