The conversion is underway to turn this gx wagon into to a 99 limited wrx wagon :D

I've decided on the sleeper look for it because it seems to be the ultimate sleeper :P

If anyone has any questions about the build or if you need help if you ever have to do something similar PM me and ill be glad to help :)

Cheers Damien

will keep you posted

Cheers Damien

Gee you work quick. Good to see people who are proactive and getting stuck into what needs to be done. Looking forward to following this build. Got a good start point anyways. Goodluck mate and keep the updates coming.

Nice one Damien!! Good luck with the rest of the build. If I can lend a hand just let me know ;)

WooHoo! good luck damo :) cant wait to see the finished product! i can lend a hand to :D

Good luck with it Damien. Be good to see the old wagon going. As I have said before, yell out if you need any help.

One thing I forgot to mention to you, your back seat wont fit. Base will I think, just the backs wont as sedan and wagon are different. If you have the tops of the wagon back seats, you could see if you could get them trimmed to match the rest. That would look unreal...

yea thats what i was thinking of doing getting the trim cut out of the limited ones and stuck to the wagon ones :D

you should take the green basher upto the pines for one last squirt, you know, make sure the engine & driveline is okay before the transplant :D

yeh have u checked all the running gear to see that it is all ok? or had a mechanic check it all out before u transplant it?
