    Here is a guy who took the CIS-e injection from a volkswagen and installed it on his ea82. He did put on mpfi heads and added a high pressure fuel pump under the hood. you could always do what this guy did using the carbed manifold with custom injector boses in the intake manifold. I'm sure you could even use a jumper harness and fuel injection from another car with similar sized engine. here's the link. http://www.fortunecity.com/silverstone/subaru/1/CIS/

    Hey, I have all the associated diff-lock stuff for your friend who bought my tranny. Give me a call sometime about when we can meet up.

    i'm glad those corner markers worked out well for you, they look really good.

    Hey Spencer,

    I sent the package out last week right before i started my mounds of homework. The tracking number is:

    1zA99F690371519100

    Its being shipped from the Seattle WA area, so it should be there in about a week. Again, I'm sorry about the delay in everything, it was not my intention to take so long in shipping these pieces. I hope these parts work out well for you. Let me know when you receive the package. by the way , your pm box is full. I hope these parts bring you joy like they did for me.

    Cheers

    Victor

    most parts stores will have them; check westbay or autozone. be careful with them, they are higher wattage than the regular white or green ones.

    have you asked this guy about his rx parts?

    http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=112196

    he is in new jersey and the shipping and overall price would be a lot less.

    Shipping to florida is about $100 from Washington state. Are you willing to pay $180 for all this? I'm sure there are people selling this same stuff locally, but if you are willing to pay that much, let me know.

  8. simple monkey

    Yes i still have it. I have no idea what shipping will be, because its larger than the estimated box i bought. I would assume shipping is going to be about $60-70 dollars and i feel like the body kit is worth more than $50. I'm still willing to ship it, but I'll need an address first, then i'll give you a better estimate on price.

  9. simple monkey

    the whole body kit is in overall good condition, except the paint its starting to peel/fade.

    how about $110 shipped?

    this is a common thing to do when using either a blow off valve or a front mount intercooler. there is a post in the new USRM section about this. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=64741 i tried this on my subie, but the turbo exploded and a valve got broken before i got to drive it. having the MAF after the BOV allows you to vent it to the atmosphere since no additional air is passing thru the MAF. it wouldn't hurt to try. if you do, post pictures, then document it; a concrete answer on this topic is yet to be proven. on 02+ wrxes, this seems to work well.

    conversly, exhaust will make an impact on the engine. are you planning on running an equal length exhaust manifold? there are $50.00 ones on ebay, sounds great, right? this is a very exciting build for me, i always wanted a high compression subie with open stacks. but, i didn't get to keep my subie very long. anyway, cool build, keep us updated.
  12. simple monkey
    +12345 look into a new intake setup, i would go with itb's since you have reground cams and high compression. Opening the intake will gain quite a bit of power with your setup. You can run ITB's with your afm even, but you'll need something to read the new TPS signal.

    i made city lights by dremeling the headlight housings. they never leaked, and looked damn good. cost me 10 dollars.
  14. simple monkey
    those are plane engines. i meant "in" a subie.
  15. simple monkey
    i've never seen a twin carb setup like this on a subie, great build! keep up the good work.

    please post pictures, sounds very interesting.

    one thing about HID kit's is that they glare in headlights not designed for HID bulbs. Glare shields can easily be made for the bulb like the one in this link. http://www.elantraxd.com/forums/showthread.php?t=20195 with HID's installed, oncoming motorists should be kept in mind.
  19. simple monkey
    Question 1: not sure if you mean the entire headlight or just the bulb. I have no idea about the entire thing. The legacy uses a 9004 bulb, where the older imprezas used H4's and now H1's. There are actual projector headlights for your car. http://www.andysautosport.com/subaru/1995_1999_legacy/lights/headlights /dimension_lab/ and these http://www.andysautosport.com/subaru/1995_1999_legacy/lights/headlights/sherman/ Question 2: Absolutely! This sounds like a great project for the weekend. :grin:Upon looking on the web a little, I found a guy who performed this on his toyota camry using E46 BMW projectors. http://www.toyotanation.com/forum/showthread.php?t=136335 There are other options for getting brighter headlights: 1. kingbobdole is right, fog lights are a simple way to get the light you want. I had a set of foglights on my subie which i found at a u-pull yard, bought new bulbs and wired them in. There was a substantial difference. 2. You could try one of these HID kits. higher numbers in K are blue and purple, the middle 5K-8K is pretty white, and 4K and below are yellowish. 3. You could rewire your headlights to use higher wattage bulbs. The OEM wires are too thin to move that type of current. Hope this helps. Victor

    do you plan on venting your wastegate to the atmosphere, or back into the exhaust? keep up the good work, and get better soon.
  21. simple monkey
    two superchargers? the parasitic power loss on this little engine with two superchargers wouldn't be worth it. not modifying the exhaust would only result in less power. twin turbos would be cool, but finding two turbos small enough for the EA81. the turbo from an EA82 would be good for the EA81 by itself, two of them would never spool. do you plan on running a suck thru or blow thru carb?
  22. simple monkey
    that almost looks like a v-mount very interesting setup, where did you source the intercooler and plumbing? got to love driving in tunnels.

    stock (yellow top) sr20det injectors are listed ast 370cc but RC engineering lists them as 400cc. These injectors are side feeds and are becoming more common as more people import sr20's from japan. here is a thread on nasioc.com: http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=92402&highlight=cheap+400cc+injectors they talk about the characteristics of the sr20 injectors in a subaru. some nissan injectors fit in the same way subaru injectors do, so you can broaden your search. hope that helps.

    Today was a good day, I got a lot of christmas shopping done, and revived my car. I pulled the cap off to see that the rotor was still there, but spun freely. I then realized that the screw for the rotor was sitting in the dizzy. The dizzy and cap both looked fine, so I put it back together and she fired right up. To prevent this from happening again, is it alright to put loctite on the screw? Thank you all for the input which helped me fix my car, I really need it for school next month. Cheers. -Victor
  25. simple monkey
    Excellent deduction, this happened to my dad's car around this time last year. I will check tomorrow along with the rotor. the plugs were replaced about a month ago, they were fine when I checked a moment ago. Thanks for all the help so far, I'll post more when I'm back with the car tomorrow; its way too cold to be tinkering outside right now. Cheers.
