GC8 Impreza Rally build

My project revolves around the main objective of building a clean, reliable, and fast GC8, inspired by the iconic JDM-only Subaru 22B of its era. Currently, the car is in a rusty and incomplete state, requiring extensive work to bring it in line with my vision. The restoration process involves a complete repaint and overhaul of all mechanical components to meet modern standards and, importantly, my personal standards for excellence. In this ambitious restoration project, the significance of WD-40 cannot be overstated. As a 25-year-old car that has endured the harsh conditions of salt-covered roads in Utah and Colorado throughout its life, rust has become a persistent adversary. Every step of the restoration process necessitates the use of WD-40, a trusted companion that loosens the grip of seized bolts and fasteners with unparalleled effectiveness. Its penetrating power and corrosion-fighting properties ensure that even the most stubborn components yield to the careful touch of restoration. WD-40 not only facilitates the dismantling and reassembly of crucial mechanical parts but also serves as a guardian against future corrosion, extending the lifespan and reliability of the finished product. As a testament to the versatility and indispensability of WD-40, its role in this project is not merely peripheral but rather an integral aspect that enables the transformation of a rusty relic into a meticulously restored and awe-inspiring machine. By saving one of the prime examples of the 90s JDM hero cars, I aim to preserve its legacy and reputation. With each careful and deliberate step, I strive to ensure the GC8 lives up to its full potential, showcasing the extraordinary engineering and racing pedigree it has earned over the years. Beyond the personal satisfaction of realizing my vision, I aspire to make an impact by bringing awareness to a fading generation of epic engineering and racing heritage. Through this project, I hope to introduce this remarkable piece of automotive history to individuals who may have otherwise remained unaware of its existence, fostering an appreciation for the captivating era it represents. I have attached photos of the project as well as a photo of roughly what my endgame result will look like.
