  1. no clearance issues, it was tight getting it in, but it is fine now that it is all bolted in... as far as rear diff. right now it has a turbo leg R160, but i have the R180 and i am working with rockfordcv to make me some conversion races so i can run it. i bought a DCCDpro automoatic controller, seemed to be the best and simplest. yes its JDM 2003, i love the gears, they are all a little closer but the 6th is a little higher, use to cruse @ 60 in 5th at 3200rpm now cruse @60 in 6th at 2700rpm. the gearing has given the car a little more spunk, not slower in the least bit.
  2. lets see... Brembos: dont know about that, have the welwoods in front and have a set of Vented EJ brakes for the rear. Bigger Turbo: have a VF37 twin scroll in the basement. EJ257: also have one of those in the basement, working on cams and compression issues. as for the DCCD, yes it has DCCD, the controler is in the mail.
  3. front section: XT6 mid and rear sections: STI however in an 85 the trans tunnel is not as wide, so you will have to cut and modify the rear section. but the bolt holes are there.
  4. Well i did it dont know if it has ever been done yet... but i now have a 2003 Ver8 STI 6 speed in my 1988 GL-10 Wagon... Works real well behind the EJ20G, i love it. still has one noise i have to find, and i need a LHD shifter asm. the RHD shifter asm is way to the right of center... O-yeah i also have to get the shift boot to look stock...
  5. i am using the stock WRX 5 blade fan, in front of the rad. it will not fit behind it. i tossed out the 4 blade fan. cuz i dont have A/C. if you keep the A/C core this maybe hard. it will bearly fit between the rad and the FMIC. -=Suberdave=-
  6. sounds like you are makeing some good progress... please keep us updated... you think the EJ22t rad is huge. i just put a KOYO rad in my car. i had to move the FMIC out an inch and cut more of the core support for that beast to fit... let me know if you need anything... -=Suberdave=-
  7. Welbro makes an inline pump that will bolt up with little mods. but 255lph may be a bit more than you need right now... -=Suberdave=-
  8. for front caster on my wagon i used some Acura bushings and that pushed the strut rod out and now i run +2.5* of caster... i love the way it handles... the only problem is when i set the caster that far +, the lower control arms hit the XT6 sway bar. however i love the way it handles even with no front sway bar... i will try putting a smaller one on it to see if that hits...
  9. funny you ask, right now i have the XT6 rear and none in the front. i added some front caster and it made the XT6 front rub on the lower control arms. so i pulled it. but i like the way it handles with out it... so we will see...

  11. well got back on the dyno today after some more work on my car. i was maxxing out the STI 540cc injectors. so i got a set modded by witch hunter that are flowing 780cc. now my injector duty cycle is only 65-70% where it was 113-125% I also replaced all of my vacuume and PCV hoses. (had a hard rubber line going to the fuel reg. and it was leaking under boost, so i just replaced them all). yes the chart is uncorrected but that is how it goes... the boost on the dyno read ~17.5, but on both pulls my Blitz boost controller read 1.13hKpa and the ViPEC read 213Kpa. witch means i will go with the two that read the same. witch puts boost at 16.38ish...

  12. are you in Auburn WA? if so i have a 3.7:1 DR Turbo trans i would sale for $100. it works just fine, grinds in 2nd if you go above 6000RPM when you shift... -=Suberdave=-
  13. you can make the mounting work. just swap out the rear diff cover. the bigger prob. is the axels. you will have to use the rear axels from the car that the diff came from. the Loyale has stub shafts and the legacy dose not.
  14. if you look closely in the one pic, the side of the brat says "The Paint Shop" so im gonna guess its a custom paint job... but looks good. Nice looking "Pick-Ups" -=Suberdave=- http://www.suberdave.com
  15. nice find. i was hopeing someone would get this and keep it nice, and not beat it... when you get done playing with that EA82T, send that car up to my house so i can put a EJ20G or EJ207 swap into it and really make it a fun car to drive... -=Suberdave=- http://www.suberdave.com
  16. if this is true. i have never found it... can someone give more info? -=Suberdave=-
  17. i have not measured any of the axels i have had on my car but here is what i know. on my 88 wagon i have had 3 different sets of axels on it. first it had the stock GL10 25 spline shafts, then i put AWD XT6 shafts on it, and now it has 96 WRX shafts on it. they all fit and have had no problems with any of them. the reason for changeing them was hub knuckle and brake upgrades. went from stock, to XT6 and now JDM WRX knuckles... -=Suberdave=- www.suberdave.com
  18. we will see. i dont do alot of 1/4 times. but i am looking forward to this spring, i will be doing some fun runs. i just got my launch control working. i have done a few 3200RPM launches. seams to work well. it builds 5PSI of boost at WOT with the timeing retarded 5*. i will not be doing any high RPM launches but this should help my 60' times and ultimately my 1/4 times and trap speed. -=Suberdave=-
  19. the blue is with the Z4 ECU and the red is with the ViPEC ECU and tune. I dont know why they are not crossing at 5252. i have lots more sheets. i will see about getting another one for you... !!! MOD LIST !!!

  23. send me a PM if you are interested in a plug and play EJ18 ready swap, has 136K on it. came from a 93 Impreza. the wiring is all done. plug in B+, Ign power, and starter wire (along with your gauges and such) and its good to go. i can even start it up on my grage floor for you if you want to see it run before buying it... then all you will need is the adapter plate, and modify your flywheel... -=Suberdave=- www.suberdave.com
