Within the next couple of days I will be purchasing a 1978 Subaru Brat.  This will be my project car and my plan is to turn it into some form of crossbreed between a Baja race truck and a rally car....  However there is one big issue with this plan that is staring right in my face and that is POWER and TORQUE. I want to know if anyone has done a swap for this vehicle and has information on the swap. I read on a separate forum that someone swapped a WRX engine into the brat and use a transmission out of a legacy. how hard would this be and what would I need to do to make it work?? any help is welcome!!
