hey do you happen to have the WRX rear diff , half shafts and drive shaft still?
I'm probably going to end up going to a stock shortblock, but leave the fpGreen, Hydra, etc. Doing a true "stock" STI swap is going to involve wiring and a new ECU and cost a bit too much to be worth it.

And no, I don't have the rear diff or axles... they got "lost" by S-Squared. But I do have a non-LSD 3.545 R160 out of my SVX. I'd be happy to sell it to ya for cheap, and you're just a LSD carrier away from a spare WRX rear-end.
