As far as the decision goes with your car, it seems as if you've already made up your mind with the WRX. Any other suggestions are futile.
yes. you ARE substantially bigger than i.

nothing too crazy. no cams, pistons, valvetrain, etc... ya know?
My vote goes for the WRX, I owned one for 4 years and absolutely loved it. I wouldn't worry about the tranny as long as you don't drive like a dip shit. That and from your basic mods your speaking of you wont make enough power to blow it up if you treat it nice. WRX with Accesport stage 2 and you'll have plenty of fun.
