Default Introduction of a newbie- HI!

Hi all,

First off let me say what a great site this is, a real asset to anybody looking for information on all things Subaru.

I have a very limited knowledge of automotive mechanics, IC engines, gearboxes, turbo's and the like- meaning i understand for the most part how they operate, just not a whole lot more after that!
I don't know much in particular about Subaru or it's history, but i have just always been a fan, growing up watching them dominate the rally scene. But having done some reading (mostly from this site) i am slowly beginning to appreciate the Subaru history & 'culture' and what an awesome one it is.

Over the last week i have gone from owning a 94 Triton, to owning a 97 RX Impreza & a JDM STI Ver 3 halfcut without really meaning to.
It is a long & boring story, so lets leave it at that.

So i have now got the RX booked in at STechnic to get a full conversion done- and i can not wait! so pumped!!

When the car became available at the right price i did a quick ring around and was lucky enough to source the half cut, needless to say excitement was already growing.

The same day was my first dealings with the boys from STechnic, i went there with a picture of the car (i hadn't bought it yet) and a rough idea of the year of the halfcut. I asked Damian & Doug if such a conversion was going to possible, and if so, how costly?
Long story short i did some running around getting more info on the car and halfcut, so that the STechnic guys could give me a better idea of what needed to happen.

Once all the info was there, Doug & Damian went through everything i needed to do, what they would need to do, prices and time-frame. I haven't experienced customer service in the Auto industry quite like what these guys provided me with. Awesome.

As the project get's underway i will create a thread for it and upload pics of the process, needless to say it will be a steep learning curve for me and i hope you guys will enjoy following it as much as i will be doing it.

Thanks in advance for the advice i will no doubt need along the way.

Cheers

Josh
