Im an STi guy and i dont hate him, im jealous as hell lol.
You actually lose weight with this swap believe it or not, the Subaru AWD system weighs a TON. 2002+ WRX's and 04+ STi's weigh in at about 3200 - 3400lbs GVW

Damn man, you should start a business and build these for a living.
Turnaround time is crazy. Talk about a profit.
Great work.

Has to be better than it was before. Subaru puts the entire engine in front of the axle.

Any plans to sell a front subframe? PM me a cost? I'll ship you a subframe to make the mounts... I've got a car that would love to have a v8 in it. /evil.
Beautiful project!
