Pre-iWire is impressive! Did you also end up swapping the interior? I am debating when I do my swap if I want to refresh the interior.

I am planning to STI swap it eventually but for now just focusing on refreshing the basics: clutch system, cooling system, AC system, suspension, driveline, etc.

I would love to get old STI back one day but I think that ship has sailed.

My RS center console was pretty beat up, broken tabs, and the thing just rattled and looked horrible. I also wanted at least one tiny cup holder to use in the center console. So I decided to tackle the WRX center console swap. I found a donor center console from a guy locally.



I took about an hour cutting a little, lining things up, test fitting, eye balling, cutting a little more, and doing that over and over again. The end result was pretty awesome as far as body lines go.



Overall, I am pretty happy with the figment, the side profile, how much cleaner it is, and my tiny cup holder!



Only thing I am slightly bummed about is the shift trim doesn't line up the best with the RS dash. My OCD twitches a little when I get in each time haha.

I am a huge lighting guy and always like to put as much light in front of my car as possible. First easy step was to upgrade the factory fog lights. Picked up a set of PIAA 520 SMRs to swap with the factory fogs.

Along with the interior tear out and center console upgrade, I went ahead and installed some new seats, a harness bar, and 4-point harnesses. Putting the cart a little ahead of the horse with the harness bar and harnesses, as I wont be racing it anytime soon, but I couldn't help myself.

Corbeau Sportline RRS with Corbeau Seat Brackets and Sliders


Braum Harness Bar with NRG 4-Point Harnesses. Rear seats have been taken out and will be replaced with a 6oc GC rear seat delete. It isn't really for weight savings but more so I prefer the look of no rear seats. It also comes with a new rear deck lid and my current OEM was is falling apart so it also fixes that little cosmetic problem. Just waiting for 6oc to finish making it.
