if you buy the same series front cut it will all bolt in, very easy conversion if you have some mechanical skills
you can get front cuts from $1500 these days
id be looking for a low km one if you are getting a twin turbo

I'm pretty sure this is what most people do with NA gen1/2/3 conversions?
Get out of my thread.

Hey mate, this sort of thing has been done many times before. Take a look through the Builds and Projects area of the Lib / Legacy forum - quite a few people have done this sort of thing!

Get an early sti halfcut...don't bother with the twins...they are nothing but a pain.
Give AM Auto a call re- pricing and what needs to be done. They are in Noosaville so not too far for you.

If you are keen to go down that path...
After the cost of the half cut the labor will cost you anywhere from $2500+ depending where you go and the shop will generally need the car for a week or so.
Give these guys a call for more info:

Some other conversions

note that most people don't waste their time with the TT and go for things like a V3/V4 STI or newer cut
