Not sure if this is the correct place to put this but if anyone has a Xt6 they are parting out I am looing for the crossmember out of a manual trans. Doing a STI conversion and this is one of the last parts I need. Thanks

Great build I was wondering what brand and part number are the spherical bearings you went with Looking to make a set of my own for an RX build. And by chance do you have the part number for the 2015 sti pillow bushing thanks. Great work agian.

Here are a couple ansers to some of the replies I have read. My block does not have the cover or the castings in the case to run the 3rd vent it is completely different than the turbo block. Also you can not split a ea82 block without first removing the wrist pins. The base of the pistons will hit the main journals in the case.

yes I was talking about the 3rd pcv vent. I was worried cause I know turbo motors usually produce a little more blowby and not only do those vents go to the pcv but they also vent crank case pressure. I just thought there might be an issue with 2 much positive crankcase pressure without the 3rd vent. thanks for the responce

Okay I am on spring break so it is time to put a motor together. I took 3 motors apart and the best block is a carbureted block that I had before the car went turbo. My question is will I have any ill effects of putting turbo pistons in a NA block. I noticed the NA block does not have the 3rd blow by passage on the back of the motor. I know people have run the entire short block with NA pistons, So I just wondered if anyone has thought about this or do some NA blocks have the 3rd blowby passage. Thanks for all feedback

Yes I understand that the bolt are not torque to yeild, but some of the bolts had pretty bad pitting and I would think that it would affect the strength of the bolt. Also I have looked at a buch of websites and now one list the head bolts. And a lot of the sites will show the part if you have the part number.

I called my local subaru dealer to get some new head bolts for my RX:banghead: . He could not fing the bolts. He said if I got the part number he could get them. Any help would be great.

Well the number on one of my bearings is NTN 4T-CR1-0683. But there is no number on the race. The race intsself is one piece for both bearings that I'm sure was specially made for subaru. So I don't think you will be able to get it from your local bearing shop. Hope this helps

It deffinately runs beter with the intercooler especialyy on the freeway. I found going up hills in 5th it doesn't tke near the boost. Also using the spider intake and computer made the thing idle smooth as silk.

Since I used the serpentine belts I had to use the power steering pump out of the xt. But I forgot to get the xt lines. The xt resevoir is different which needs different lines. But the stock resevoir bolted onto the xt pump but it make it sit a little different. No problems yet.

I got this rx a while back for 500 bucks. So far I have installed inter cooler fuel pressure regulator BOV spider intake matching xt computer turbo timer zero sport air diverter gauages steering wheel not yet installed emanage ultimate 5 lug swap Also if steveman09 sees this I have some ?'s on install. I wanted to see what engine code he is using in emanage software.

I don't know if this helps but my rx was having a similar problem. just before it went on to boost it had a surge shutter then cleared up. It almost felt like the clutch slipped then grabbed again. My car also had a crappy idle. It idled really low or at about 1100. Well it turned out to be a leaking injector. Yesterday I replaced all 4 and now it is perfect. Idles is smooth as silk and no more shutter before boost.

I was down at my local pick a part in san diego california and there was a pretty nice xt6 manual AWD. all I want is the sway bars. Everything else was there including 4 good motion wheels with center caps. 5 lug conversion etc. Also it had a good dash trim. I go down once a week so if anyone needs something let me know. Also in a couple weeks it is 50% off day at that yard. so parts could be cheap.

I would say go with the goodyear as long as they are the gatorback and not their cheaper model. Just don't use the Autozone brand duralast I think is the name. worthless. Gatorback belts are great.

I just purchased a personal steering hub off ebay for 29 bucks. It comes with the pins to turn the turn signal off. Fits great and fits nardi or personal steering wheels which I must say are very nice and look just like a momo. You can buy an adapter to go from personal to momo bolt pattern. the part #4702 or old code #5910. very nice part. Hope this helps I love mine
