Oh no, what have I done... Part 2
Well after everything I decided to cure my boredom with another project. This needs a motor. Basically the tinkering and the work seems to be good for my mental health. It gives me something to focus on and problem solve.

As much as I don't need it and I bitch about it I really want something to tinker with as well. It's a love hate thing.
Engine plans?
I say go full crazy and modify to drop in lsx.
Re: Oh no, what have I done... Part 2
Cool. Good luck 
I think about all the things we could have done, all the miracles we could have achieved, if we were all just a little bit better than it turns out we are.

Holy shit. There's still a piece of guardrail stuck to it.

Re: Oh no, what have I done... Part 2
The biggest concern is are the pieces I'd want/need for a BAR swap usable, and are the rest of the things that make the STi valuable still useable.
Re: Oh no, what have I done... Part 2
You'd need to work with a broker to get it. I don't know if they'd do an inspection for you.
Do not pay for Copart's 'inspection' service. It's a gigantic waste of money. The extra photos were nice, but I didn't learn anything I didn't already know.
One of these days I'll get over to the yard here and see if they check ID on entry. If they don't, I could just give you my member number and you could go pretend to be me. I'm not eligible to bid in California, but I think I could still get on the lot to look at cars.

Re: Oh no, what have I done... Part 2
Yeah I dunno about doing a full BAR swap it seems like it's going to be way more expensive than what I had initially planned for this car. Have to find a USDM 04-07 complete STi engine and engine harness, which at this point will always have well over 100k on them. This means I'll likely need a new short block soon after getting it running if it runs at all.

Re: Oh no, what have I done... Part 2
Finally started to wrench on it this weekend. Got everything disconnected except for the bell housing and motor mounts. Have to pickup my engine stand before I pull the engine out.

Ordered nearly $3100 in parts today. Short block should be here in about 2weeks.
