IIRC the 2000 or so and earlier Imprezza's weighed in at about 2800lbs or so. They already have a 2.5. You get the idea. Of course the added weight would hurt it in some spots. Thats why the S13/14 would be a good option. You can get a sub 2500lbs weight easy. Getting the e36m3 that light would be tough I would think. E30's are much lighter but they dont have the quality rear suspension that the S13/14 or the E36 has.
