Bit more progress

Installed a gd 2 core rad with mishimoto fan shroud
Running Evans waterless coolant now, bit unsure on this as the car is running hotter but from the research I've done it seems to be normal so I'll just keep an eye on it.

Sent the ecu away to have the tps circuit upgraded as I was having signal issues, they did some other updates while it was in repair.

Also got a pillar gauge pod for my defi gauges, not sure about this one too as it's bit of a cop magnet




Also picked up a dccd 6 speed
Just gathering the other bits requred now

Its from an 05 sti
Will be putting a helical r180 in at the same time

Wanted a plated r180 like what I have now but this was part of the deal

Nice pickup with the 6 speed man. How much does this thing owe you now?
Is there any way of swapping the plated centre into your new diff?
Surely the ring gear is bolted to it

[Robert]

Too much... 

worth more in parts than whole 

 

I think ill just sell the plated one to recoup costs 

I reckon it could be swapped over, but going to cost more again

Now have working cruise control and outside temp gauge works on the climate control

So much luxury

[Sven Smergberd]

Cruise control is life.

[Barbbachello]

Many gears, such launches, much skids. Sweg

6 speeds are for people who can't drive

[Sven Smergberd]

I have a 6 speed and can confirm Adam's statement.

[motoboy76]

Nice Rob, I would love a 6 speed one day...

[Beckers]

I have a 6 speed and 

it's missing the front diff

[Sven Smergberd]

It's missing a lot of things.

[Matt]

Good stuff mate!
I'm interested to see the W2A setup in action. I looked into going that way when I did my swap but I would've been overkill for my relatively mild setup.
