Why'd he use the bad trans? Seems like a lot of work for that.

Pretty sweet if you axe me.
Cool - I love sleepers (as if you couldn't tell).
I always wonder why......GREAT concept......$6500.....two little pictures. Does he really want to sell it?

Yeah - i am hoping his engineering skills are better than his photography / Ebay listing skills.
I thought the same. Extremely let down by the two half assed pictures.
WANT MORE PICS!?!
Looks and sounds like a badass project though.
There was a guy on RS25.com building one of these. I think he was also on NASIOC. Not sure if this is his. I'll have to find the threads.
Edit: Nevermind his was a Mazda truck.
sounds like a fun way to rally.
Found the build thread on NAISOC:
WRX Hardbody
Love this stuff! That's a crackpipe starting bid, tho
