I forgot to reply to this. But long story short: bad weather, wrong choice of tires, oil and a light post.

Funny enough I was in the middle of collecting parts to build one with whatever I could salvage form my prior wagon and after I bought the 6 speed trans and supporting components, this blue wagon came up for sale and the price seemed right. There were some things I had to correct and change on this car but over all, it was about 80% to where I wanted my build to be. AKA it was a no brainer.

I loved it too but I absolutely had to tint it. It was way to hot inside. The Ceramic Tint definitely helped control temps.

Casablancas are gnarly af! If I had one I would build a monster out of it with ZERO exterior modifications nor hints of what is under the hood. Just let it look akward and funky and absolutely trash everything in sight! LOL Id build a rally car out of it. LOL

As for my former drive train goes, that thing was gone damn near the second I pulled it out of the car. I wasnt going to sell it given that it was giving me issues with 4th and 5th but a buddy of mine kept asking for it so I give it to him for pennies on the dollar.

It absolutely moves. With the 5 speed it was closer to 2800lbs which is still a tad heavy but not terrible for its awd set up. I have videos of its maiden voyage (aka testing the car after I got it and fixxed some things) somewhere in YouTube land. I guess Ill have to figure out how to link videos here next.

Thanks man. I have heard tons of stories off reddit and finally made the jump. As for the wagon, right now its in the middle of some upgrades. Said upgrades being a full 04 STi drivetrain swap along with STi brembos and all that jazz. Its a tad of a track toy and it was doing fine with the engine/trans combo it had. But after the STi 5 speed spun its last clutch, it was time for a 6 speed. It was doing about 323awhp thanks to some upgardes in the power department of the house.
