    I was a professional craftsman for a couple decades, and am a Cinematographer these days. Went and got a 18 WRX and did basically most of what you have, maybe a bit more in terms of engine mods, as my dyno numbers are higher. I approached brake mods and wheels a bit differently, as I wanted unsprung weight to be as low as possible, and the cost of the big brake kits was more than I was comfortable with. Your work and attention to detail in both build and video production are fantastic. Pretty high bar that you set. Thank you for sharing it!

    Absolutely, if I owned a WRX… I would want it to look similar. Almost identical because I wouldn’t want to completely copy his style. This build definitely gives motivation and ideas as to how incredible this car could be. Should be like this from the factory.

    That was my plan: make it as short as possible and flow fast so people with attention span issues can enjoy it too! I have that issue as well, can't sit through too long of a video, so I edited this one to where it felt fast-paced and not tempting to skip. Not a fan of clips dragging too long unless there is talking involved or it's a camping video.
