Default Nice! And some help?

Hands down the best Subie project I've seen, mad skills, respect!

I intend to do a similar project, but for gravel rally. I'm currently rallying a GC8 but want to take it to the next level: An S5 WRC replica built to race on gravel. Specifically intend to replicate Richard Burns's safari spec car.



I'm starting with a P1/Type R shell to get the two door body, swap on replica panels with N12/N10 running gear.

My only issue is suspensions. You've used the original WRC wheels to fit the wide body, I dont have access to those. I want to use standard rally wheels (speedline corse 15's). What parts do you think I'll have to mod/fabricate to get the same look without compromising performance too much?

Appreciate any help from anyone

Selection of WRC-only wheels/hubs/bearings here:

Might be a solution... Whilst maintaining the 'pukka-ness' (and importantly, the strength) to boot!


Also, lots of other WRC suspension parts:

I saw those, but they ain't cheap. Besides I'd need quite a number of these as spares in rally, which again, would be too expensive.

I'm exploring my options to see if I can use other parts, otherwise looks like I'm stuck with these.

There is one very lucky person out there.
Do you know what they have planned for it?
