Not sure of the differances between models but to be safe use the same cylinder and pedal that came from the WRX doner car, it will match the slave cylinder then. I gave a mate a hand doing this and am looking at doing it on my car. Just cut a piece out of the doner cars firewall that contains the m...

haha - I have not completed the conversion but I was most of they way there (had all parts etc) then I brought the EJ20T Rally car and sold the EA82T 8) If you use a VF8 or 10 the water and oil systems all line up ok from what I could see dryfitting the turbo, i think I was going to use a longer oil...

Definitly go with either a VF8 (Series 1 RS Lib) or VF10 (Series 1 GT Lib) and just buy the exhaust plates off the wrecker at the same time then you just need to cut and weld them onto your existing up-pipe and exhaust (or go for the full system upgrade!!) Also the EA82T turbos compresser housing ex...

When you pulled over and popped the bonet the thermo fan should have been going, if it was not then there is your problem. If it was going then you will need to delve a bit deeper into the problem. I would recomend a full oil/filter change as oil breaks down very fast at high temperatures and it is ...

Ahhhh..... the old bag-of-cement-in-the-boot-trick aye. This one has been around since Christ played halfback for Jerusilum :lol: I do not know about the Brumby but adding weight to the rear of older style race/rally cars to improve the overall front to rear weight split is a well accepted tried and...

Anyone know how many PSI a stock RX turbo fuel pump delivers??

Thanks in advance - Shaun

Had a couple more events recently - A Grasskana organised by a local Subaru enthusiasts club. I was the only old school sub there with a few series 1 and 2 RS Legacys a Fozzy and a heap of WRX's including several STi's. Had heaps of fun on four cources and won the first two slightly twistier ones th...

Heres some pics, sorry about some being a little fuzzy

I will take some photos tonight and post them tomorrow.

I have just made one for the rally car from chromemolly - I still need to get it powder coated but I can take some photos of it if you like.

Thanks for the shocks Vidler, they arrived yesterday and are all good.

Cheers - Shaun

Well both the car and I survived our first Hillclimb together yesterday :D No mean feet really :lol: :lol: Hillclimb was a 2.3km Gravel event on a windy technical road, in the leone it was all 2nd and 3rd gear stuff. The winning time (tricked out Mitsi VR4) was 1.45, my best time was 1.58 Freaked ou...

Thanks guys - ended up putting it in the top pipe, a tight squease but made easier using a "custom" sender mount, simply a suitable diameter piece of exhaust pipe and brase the fitting into a driled hole, cut to length (short :lol: ) and all good. Just out of interest do these temps sound about righ...

The scoop is used to provide positive cabin air preasure this has the effect of preventing dust from entering the car making it hard to see and breath.

Thanks for the input so far guys, I have gathered that splicing in the new gauge to the old sender wont work so i need to plumb in a new sender, preferably in original place if not the in a handy piece of plumbing.... problem with the upper radiator pipe is that in my car it is very short and Im not...

Found a white wire on its own with its own loom plug, but no green trace, I think this is the right one... It leads to a sender that screws in vertically, if you look straight down ~5 or 6cm to the side of the IC-to-Tbody pipe and behind the throttle cable/butterfly linkages, looks like it should co...

Thanks MechaWagon, I want to hook up an after market Temp gauge to get over the EA vs EJ temp gauge differances, so the loom wire would be fine. Is it one of the wires that connect to the main loom just above the starter motor? If so does anyone happen to know which one it is (colour/plug etc). Also...

Cant seem to find the pesky little blighter, can anyone point me in the right direction??

Thanks in advance.
