Well, the time has come to start documenting the whole ordeal and process. I've decided to do a subaru conversion. I hope I can have this done by January 1st, in hopes of doing the "Hangover Rally" once again.

The plans, somewhat flexible, involve:

Renegade Hybrids Kit
Renegade Hybrids Radiator
EJ25 Normally Aspirated (USDM) engine
Stock (Subaru) Fuel injection
Stainless Steel fuel lines

And some possible additions include:

Adjustable Front Sway Bar to replace the current one
Larger wheels
Lower profile tires
New interior
Back pad
Relocate power (Stereo)

Still unresolved and undecided
Fuel Pump. Which one, and where to mount.
How to run coolant hoses
How to vent warm air
Whether or not to cut/replace current front bumper.

So... this is her farewell picture
