p.s. it was 90 minutes from start to finish of the actual engine pull.. Not half bad considering its a forking auto.. them auto bolts!

 

So now we have:

 

Fuel Pumps! thanks guys!

EJ20H Complete

TD04 (Thanks Will)

(My load 6S ecu)

Pink top injectors and B4/RSK/GTB intake manifold

Medium Compound Semi's (thakns Joss)

Various Intercoolers

only an NA hood but i'll cut that and throw in the BugEye Scoop seeing as nobody forking wants the thing

5MT NA setup

B4 Brakes (thanks Vic)

Need to sort some harnesses and another seat.

All going well we should have it live by end of Oct for the Calder Day and Winton in November :D

 

 

Some hard long hours have gone in so far.

You're going to need the lightweight flywheel that came with my EJ207. Because race car.

Is a GC8/SF5 silicon turbo inlet any use?

 

Post up what you're after, I've got a shed full of subaru crap and more soon to be available. GD control arms might be useful? (wider track? I know nothing about Legacy/Lib vs WRX.. sorry!)

The boys did some work yesterday although I didn't make it, from what they were saying there was a lot of engine bay cleaning. But other than that, I'm not sure if anything else was done. Pictures will be up later today or tonight


Anyway, torqued to spec is just the manuals way of saying 'we couldn't get it any tighter, see if you can'.

As Joss said things sort of got done yesterday. We rolled the car out and Victor finally got to clean the engine bay. Was forked with grease and engine spooge as you can see

Victor spent about 2 hours degreasing, scrubbing and pressure washing it

and it almost looks new. Did a sweet Job. Ty has also been converting the 20H to single turbo and doing the timing belt and shit in his spare time I think?

I might make the trip down for the weekly meet again next week. Will bring the B4 inlet manifold down, as well as a pair of modified fuel rails for parallel feed. Bought them for 25 bucks but never had the enthusiasm to actually put them on, and now I'm down in civilisation, figured I likely don't need them. Nice work too by the way. Nice and clean now.

MY00 Red RX, a nice daily that was sold off once the B4 became reliable...
MY02 Blue B4, aka 'The Project' - v8 JDM STi engine package and assorted other 'goodies' - Sold, then bought back for parts. Stripped and crushed.
MY03 Blue RX, the newer old daily, pretty well more B4 than RX now... In the process of being converted to the track toy... Watch this space!
MY02 Silver Wagon, H6 conversion, full blue/black leather and almost full black interior to go with it.
MY03 White/Silver H6 Outback, donor car for silver waghoon.
MY97 Silver RX, acquired to become track car, but plans changed. To be stripped and scrapped in time.

So nothing has happened on this still cos we're lazy lol. Toying with the idea of one day entering 24 Hours of Lemons with it but that costs a fork load more money than track days.

If the final drive ratio on your trans is 4.44 you can have my r160 viscous lsd for your parts pile. Needs an $8 axle oil seal.

LAAAAAAME.

 

Want a 4.44 5MT turbo box? It's got some smashed synchros, probably smashed 5th, and mostly smashed centre diff... but it comes with a matching diff, clutch and flywheel. Free for racecars.

I should warn you that the gearsack oil smelt like robot satan's butt nachos.

Andrew_K, what is the code on the box?
One of us has a buggered box with good Centre and Good 5th but the rear housing and extension is fooked
Would only work if the box you have is 8Bolt though.. as the centre diff we have will only fit an 8 bolt style box's extension housing
