Also I was driving to see the boys at Nvauto and I seen a gc impreza on top of another car scrap yard ! so I found the rims I wanted for a steal 250. So I sent them out to the sand blasters to get ready for the powder coating. I'm thinking world rally blue color for the rims

I don't know where I can put a intercooler in this car

 

I fit one from a Saab 9000 in the front of my GL-10 wagon. Inlet and outlet go under the lower radiator support, may be a clearance issue for you once lowered. I deleted the AC condenser, the hood latch, and put holes through the 86 front bumper behind the license plate to let some airflow through. I also had to trim the inside of the grill a bit so it wouldn't rub. I'd take pictures, but I'm 2,500 miles away from the car. If I can fit that in, you can fit a normal size one in.

 

It was this intercooler: 16" tall x 25" wide, more at the inlet and outlet.
