You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Johnny508 again.

Nice, man! Those are fun cars.
Here's some stuffs from the shakedown of the WRX...
Just a pic and a short vid of the first time I got to drive it after the swap.

Re: Post pics of your ride!
I haven't been on here in a while, so I'll do a quick update.
Civic: I participated in the Ultimate Track Car Challenge in July. Got my ass kicked. Got in the magazine though.
Some more pics from ITR Expo at Mid-Ohio:
About a year ago I got rear ended in my truck, which totaled it. I replaced it with this '06 Silverado. 4"/5" drop, SS wheels and big rear swaybar are the only mods.
I sold my M3:
To start a new project- the FD:
I bought it totally stock, with no drivetrain in it. The plans are for a turbo LSx, but that's a while away. So far I've gone through the suspension and added Tein Monoflex coilovers, cleaned up the interior and bought brand new factory seat covers to replace the worn original leather, and been through a few different sets of wheels(on a car that doesn't move). I just bought a wrecked Miata, and I'll be swapping the shitty engine into the FD so I can drive it. I have enough junk laying around to build a turbo kit for it, so it'll have as much power as a stock FD at least. Still sucks, lol.
Loved these,but I couldn't get enough pull in the front to clear them, so I sold them:
This is what I have now. After the car is done I'll be going with a set of CCWs, but I really like the Cosmis in the meantime:

Re: Post pics of your ride!
Yes sir! Mocked engine up, and it's a nightmare. Engine sits about 2" too high due to the steering rack. Started modding the subframe to drop the rack and get oilpan clearance. Hope to finish that tomorrow. Dropped the rack the same amount as all the LSx swap kits so I can just use an off-the-shelf bumpsteer correction kit.
After the subframe I'll start stripping the engine harness and figuring out what needs to be done to integrate it to the FD.
