Might have sorted some V3 WRX heads, so not quite as nice, but it'll do the job. Unsure if the engine will be going back into this car though, may re-shell into a road car, as I'm not getting a lot of use out of it as a rally car.

That thing looks like an abortion of a car. I saw this when looking for Legacys, its so wrong and should never be sold or shown to the public again, its been up for a while and not sure if it will ever sell, unless the price drops by about $5500

Yea I'm very much a 16bit ECU man so I can't really confidently comment on the 32bit side of things. This is a good source of truth though https://www.romraider.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=37 looks like there are a number of 32bit speed density ROMs out there. If you go with the MAF just make sure you have a good bend 90-degree preferably but just something and basically just get the MAF as far away from the turbo as possible. If I ran a MAF on a twisted setup "which I wouldn't" I would run the intake pipe down into the wheel arch and locate the MAF down in there somewhere. Remembering that you ideally want the MAF 300ish mm away from your pod filter for the same reason as keeping it away from the turbo. It needs clean unturbulent flow to work nicely at low flow / idle. And as mentioned, going to a 3inch MAF housing will require a MAF rescale which is easy enough on the stock ECU

How the f*ck is it legal with no wing mirrors? Thought you had to have at least 2 out of 3 mirrors? Also man that's a lot of effort gone into building something, erm, pretty unique. The lines around the rear fender flares look like at least 3L of bog was used on each side

Leave it all plugged in but with bolts removed and lean the seat back against the rear seats and try operate the different buttons and you'll quickly see if anything isn't working

Sorry, totally forgot reading that you had new ones, Im getting old and my memory is not so good these days, when it never was great. Hopefully someone else has a better answer

$5k for front pads and discs on these

Cheers @swamp ! The RS4 is an amazing machine. I mean the crazy thing is, its a $160k car that has depreciated so much, just about the average Joe can buy one now. Albeit hopefully not having to encounter any crazy maintenance costs! In the car with windows down, revving to 8000rpm, hearing the angry v8 sing. Its pretty dam amazing! Still i'm too scared of RS4 maintenance costs, and can't afford both cars, so will be selling it before my 800hp build is done sadly. Glad to have experienced such a cool car though!

I know this is an old thread and sorry for digging it up but I dont have the factory and I have tried everything I can think of to get this to work.. I read somewhere that if you dont have the factory key fob then just earth the disarm wire which is in the drivers kick panel. I have googled and everything and cant for the life of me figure out (noob) what the kick panel is and I definitely cant find the wire. I really do want to get this going its such a sweet feature! Thanks for any help guys! All else fails I just borrow someones fob then reset the system to remove that fob ???

Pulled the heads last night, and found the full extent of the damage: Block will need sleeved, and I'd say 4 new pistons, hoping the rods and crank are salvageable...
