[In-Progress] Impreza WRX(C) Sti V8

My new project is an Subaru Impreza Wrx (Wrc) Sti
Originally the Wrc 2002 model from tamiya but I will make it a street (race) version. Or more like a drifter :P
Color: Black I think, havenīt decided yet. Any suggestions?
Interior: Black and red or blue (if iīm going for interior :P )
Exterior: Gt-wing, new rims, SAS brake disc set and some other nice stuff.
And the coolest thing is that iīm (we?) gonna put in an v8 engine from an friendīs Mustang (creds to Fredrik )

Here it is, ready for priming, also the hood has been opened Had to remove the "enginge" from the chassis, did it with a Dremel, but I removed to much of parts that shouldnīt be removed so I have to do something about it :P
And the parts of the v8 engine ofcourse (the white parts if someone wonders )


Here it is primed, but I didnīt like the result so Iīm gonna do it again.


Same as above but with the hood on.


More pics will come when I get further.. so behave until then!!

I thought this thread was going to be about a Version 8 STi.

Cool project!! Have fun cramming all the ancillary bits in to that engine bay!
