ok before i get flamed THIS HAS BEEN DONE...BUT NOT WITH A GT4...And is kinda expensive unless you can get to a country that has gt4s...My friends buddy lee was stationed over in japan..he bought a 96 STI and removed the engine...shipped it to america then shipped the fame out and registered it as a "kit car" and it is now sittin in his drive way in michagain..complete JDM 96 Subaru Impreza STI...If he could have done this with an STI we could do the same thing with the GT4's. Simple ship the engine and frame out in to seperate crates! Now there im sure there are other issues involving this but this is what i heard...im almost positve there is red tap through out this entire process but he got the car to america and is drive it legally!! Of course you would have to know someone in japan, the uk..etc to get the car or you could go there yourself...but if it works with this impreza then it more then likey can work with the gt4's

^^ That is all right... but there is no reason to stick a 2nd gen 3s in there... u can swap a 3rd gen 3s into an st165 or st185, so it's not that big a deal... The main part of getting the car legal is the VINS... it has to have vin plates... now I"ve heard of ppl yanking them off of a 6gc and registering it that way... but if u want a truly legal one u gotta get VINs form Toyota for a nice price
