will deffo feel like a different car now kevan enjoy mate

big power cars never are mate would be good to see it on the road again though

shiny cars are overrated colin,when you hoping to have it up and running in anger?

the old 1 is a vf34 john which your using already good for 350bhp lol a bottle of wine usually helps the insomnia hoping to be ready for end of may if i can get a map time sorted

got quite a bit done on the car today started by making a gasket for and fitting new throttle body fitted new fuel rails fitted engine back in headers next wrapped and fitted them and up-pipe old and new turbo turbo fitted also took off gearbox cradle to fit new shifter bushes but they had already been done so thats another part to add to the for sale list lol

cheers chris,ill try and get a list of the bits and pieces for sale over the weekend not sure if theres anything for your car though

never had brembos so not sure mate,he does this 335mm kit http://www.godspeedbrakes.co.uk/Subaru/subaru.htm or performance friction do good 2 piece discs too,both are pricey though

think so,the discs are godspeeds 335mmx32mm

if the big 1's are too big and the small 1's too small then i'll cut the big 1's down...phew fitting fuel rails tomorrow

cheers mate,bought them from ian at godspeed at christmas when he was doing a bit of a deal on them

as already has been said not much happening this week fitted 24mm anti roll bars for detailed fitting instructions see dales thread also fitted ap calipers but the backing plate/stone guard was a nightmare to remove as couldnt get at the bolts holding it for the driveshafts so just took off everything in the way;front shocker,driveshaft etc engines going back in on sat so should get quite a bit done next week

nice pics noel

lol i thought i was doing well getting mine down to classic weight! looking forward to the finished article

what weight are you aiming for john?

if i decide to change it i'll let you know mate

mmmm......would it fit?

i know john its never ending,make me an offer and if its enough for me to buy a dogbox i might take it

maybe you should take a leaf out of my book john!

aye probably went a bit ott but you can never have too much info

looks good john......................how much for a gram man?

type r all the way way mate.why not import one yourself? speak to stewart chapman(chapman81)on here,im sure he'll get you a minter for your £

taking it out IS the easy bit im sure we'll get there in the end though good experience if nothing else cheers craig and im sure you'll be happy with your jdm sti when it arrives

cheers for the heads up colin but i didnt go into this with my eyes closed. the car you refer to is duncans(dynamix)which turned out to have a cracked oil pick up pipe!i have spoke to alan jeffrey and allayed my fears of oil pressure drop and have been assured that there are several cars running these plates with no issues.i will run with the plate and monitor oil pressure to see how it goes,if there is any issues then i shall remove it and look at other options. for the record i'll be monitering: oil pressure,oil temp,water temp,fuel pressure,boost pressure,wideband afr,inlet temp, injector duty,exhaust gas temp and more,no point in pushing an engine to the max and then disregarding whats going on(even on a little 2.0l) jim

didnt spend too much time working on the car today but did manage to strip down and remove inlet manifold fitted manifold spacers and put new one-piece manifold back on took off sump and fitted 1 of these cosworth baffle plates couldnt fit new hydra throttle body as we need smaller headed bolts but g.mac has sorted us out with them(cheers mate)so can get that on tomorrow

cheers gus,stewart does seem to keep on sourcing top cars
