Gen 3 B4 liberty single turbo ej207 build

30 January 2018 - 10:47 AM

I've recently picked up a v8 ej207 short block with 130k on it, it also came with the Avcs cams, pulleys and the 05 sti Ecu.

I'm going to use my B4 heads and get them overhauled with new valves, springs, retainers and guides.

I want to use second hand parts where possible, this is going to be my daily driver, also contemplating going e85

Question:

- should I wire in the sti Ecu so I can use the avcs cams and pulleys I got with the short block. Or just get get new non avcs cams and run the standard Ecu.

- should I just use a second hand sti tmic or go second hand fmic

- I've got some v8 sti twin scroll heads and sump the suit, what kind of turbo would be suited to the standard v8 sti avcs cams if I go that way. Or what cams and turbo recommendations do you guys have for me..


I really want this thing to be pulling hard at high revs.

V8 ej207 short block. What heads should i get.

07 December 2017 - 09:03 AM

I scored a 05 ej207 v8 short block for my 02 b4 liberty because it has done a bearing..

Was thinkinking about getting my b4 ej206 heads ported and the valves machined oversize. Getting new valves, springs, retainers, guides. And using the sti cams that came with the short block or buying new ones..

Or am i better getting some heads that support avcs

Can anybody chime in with some advice please.

2002 B4 liberty, ej25t engine conversion from 2012 wrx

28 September 2017 - 10:16 AM

Ive just purchased a 2002 b4 liberty twin turbo with a blown engine.

I can also get my hands on a wrecked 2012 wrx with low k's cheap.

Is there anything that will stop me from doing a engine/turbo and running gear conversion to the b4??

Thanks in advance.. [emoji12]

06 wrx won't start, no cel codes/obd access

2006 wrx, 
-car cranks but won't start
-power to coils and injectors, but no pulse
-Main fan stays on when ignition is switched on
-mobile mechanic and a friend who both have decent scanners couldn't read the ecu
-pin out on data connection may not be standard
-when ignition is turned to the ON position, fuel pump will only prime if mad sensor is disconnected
-oil pressure light and check engine light are all that stays illuminated. 
Check engine light is constant (doesn't blink)
-keyless entry stopped working, even after I replaced the battery 

I've gone through and checked most earth connections and even added extra ones.

The battery has been disconnect regularly to put on charge, I've tried to do a ecu reset hopping it would clear the fault and recalibrate. But no luck

The car has an exhaust which starts just behind the front wheels, a walbro fuel pump and the previous owner has jumped and spliced a number of wires that connect to the ecu. Some connectors have been spliced in for ecu mapping I'm guessing 

I'm wondering if the ecu is faulty, but under close inspection I can't visually see any damage.or maybe it can't re calibrate because of all the jumped and spliced wires.
