Few more bits done/sorted.
Ordered a Knock monitor from knockgauge.eu - sorted out a 6speed gearbox which hopefully I should get in the next couple of weeks, Painted my lower Grille and fitted smoked side repeaters. Just need a bigger hole saw to sort out the cold air feed plus get the gearbox and fuel rails fitted. |
Had a good chat with Brent today and the car will be off to SMD shortly to get the gearbox and fuel rails fitted plus the boss for the wideband and the IAT sensors all ready for SImon to put a 'final' map on the car!
Hoping to actually get an APS turbo to the quoted spec (440!) |
Looking good nick....I'll be amazed if you get 440 off the aps!
I am down for srr on the 31st if you can make same day |
Coming on well now
Keep us updated |

I might try and get to this too. I want to get my multi-maps set up. 8-)

Looking good for the 31st - had the OK from Simon, box should be with Brent by Friday and I'm dropping my car in with him on the Sat.
Better get the Cold air feed fitted before that then! |
Looking good - Box has arrived, new clutch/fly should be with Brent Monday (AP Racing organic) thanks to David at APi - hopefully my Prosport gauge pack and knock gauge should also arrive by the week after for me to fit along with the cold air feed ready for the mapping on the 31st.

Couple of little changes...
http://i356.photobucket.com/albums/o...d/DSCN0240.jpg Next up Satin black intercooler (radiator paint) plus paint the top grille, possibly an oil cooler under there as well rather than wing mounted, trying to work out if there's space. |
Will look good with black meas & intercooler
I do love that piggie badge |
Car is all tucked up with Brent, Clutch and flywheel should arrive on Monday so car should be back for the weekend so I can fit the Cold air kit and possibly spray the intercooler ready for mapping on the 31st.
Oil cooler will also be sorted prior to Brands as I think this is needed. |
Car is coming on nicely mate. Just a heads up when i painted the intercooler on the Scoob black. After a couple of weeks worth of running around it looked rubbish. Every stone that hit it chipped the paint . It looked like it had a bad rash. Worse thing was to try get this back to it's original state
took over 4 hours. Even then i had to paint the fins. So have a really good think first buddy. :drive: |
No problem with mine, just spray it satin black from Halfrauds and it only takes 10 mins every few months to give a little touch up ;)

Car should hopefully be finished on Thursday now, bit of a nix up with the rear diff/driveshafts - quick call to APi and the correct shafts are now on the way!
Why did Subaru put so many bloody different box/diff combinations in the cars! |
Fuel rails/hoses/frp, 6 speed with short shift, intake air temp sensor AP racing clutch and flywheel all fitted by Brent at SMD. Now off to SRR on Thursday to get it all mapped.

Got started on the oil cooler today, All in and sorted but need to tighten the oil cooler lines onto the sandwich plate however - my adjustable doesn't fit so will tighten up tomorrow and fit the horns as the space they used to fit in now is kinda full of oil cooler.

LOVE the oil cooler...!!! Was it easy to fit?
|
Depends how you define 'easy' currently yes reasonably as it's held in with cable ties! However getting proper brackets made up will take a while but should be OK as is for a while.
Plus I cant tighten up the bloody hoses onto the sandwich plate as my spanner won't fit in! |
I'm officially pee'd off now after another 1/2 day of failures!
|
Try tightening the hoses first, then fitt the sandwidge plate. ;-)
|
I was coming to that conclusion but with the way one of the hoses is threaded through to the plate it won't work - looks like it may be back to the drawing board with the hose routing!
|
or get Brent to do it!
|
that is a busy engine bay !!
|
Getting there! Still got a slight weep on one of the oil hose to sandwich plate connections but will have to do for now! I'll get it up on a ramp to tighten up at some point soon.
