Having gone from a WRX to a STi, I can honestly say that it is not cost effective to try and make a WRX into a STi. They are two completely different animals.....absolutely no comparison.
Motor work: $5000 minimum
Brake work: $2000 minimum
Suspension work: $1500 minimum
Drivetrain work: $5000 minimum (for STi drivetrain/6spd)
Grand total of $13,500 minimum.
Now you have an extremely modded WRX with no warranty for more than the cost of a new STi.
Sell your WRX - take the loss and buy a STi. I sold my 03 WRX with 19600 miles bone stock for 19,500. Bought a used STi with mods for 31,500. I have a $11000 loan which I pay $223/month - for a very fast high performance machine.
Just .02 from someone that has been there, done that.
