The OFFICIAL IGOTASUBARU.COM build thread

[John]

Some of you may have caught wind that we have been tossing around the idea of a build for a little while now. This build is intended to be a car for IGOTASUBARU.COM.

Our goals for this build are

• Promoting IGOTASUBARU.COM
• Drawing our community closer together
• Having a project that everyone can take part of in some way shape or form
• Test vehicle for prototype ideas and parts from the Elite Subaru members
• and various other reasons - but these are the big ones

Now at one time the idea of a "community" car was tossed around. Something that the community as a whole shared, but this would not work for several reasons. The biggest reasons are registration and insurance. Having a car jump around between several different people would just not work.....when it was passed onto the next person, they may or may not take care of it, etc....

This build is going to be a privately owned vehicle, but built for IGOTASUBARU.COM. CRZTRBO (JJ Smith), JAC Wagon (Adam Claude) and myself will be managing this.

The car will be built here in the Phoenix, Arizona area. We are looking at starting building soon. Currently, we are looking for a worthy roller to use for this build.

The build will be comprised of the following :

• Modified Forester suspension
• Built (forged) EJ257 shortblock
• EJ205 heads
• Stage 2 clutch kit
• Short shifter
• 4.44 final drive 5MT
• BD or GC build depending on what vehicle we find

Just like this site, this build is not going to be possible without the support of the community, and our vendors. As of now, we have the support of a few.

Now with all this being said, this is not my first rodeo. I've built several Subarus, I've spent lots of time on the track...enough to say I'm a fairly experienced builder and driver. Adam is well on his way there as well.
