i agree. if the pcv valve is in good condition you can use a catch can in between the crank-case and valve, and another between the rocker cover breathers and intake if you\'re worried about oil
this thread has motivated me to check my pcv though

Yeah early EJ20G (this one a 1996) pulled from an original GC8 v2 STi RA, the one with TD05 and 5th injector from factory. No CDB though
must have been just on the change over on the production line...
interesting. do your pistons look like this? do you have a chassis number from the car?
-
yeah i\'m prepared to build the megasquirt and make the whole loom to suit the racecar. should be good fun
what method do you recommend for listening for knock? has anyone reverse engineered the knocklink circuit?
-
any luck with megasquirt? I will be looking at it in the future, I require a different tooth pattern on the crank pulley aye?
-
since the legacy is actually working i\'m planning on driving up. anyone else?
-
nice, how did you deal with the swarf?
-
i kept the original pipe and braised it closed. its an option
i\'ve also turned up a piece of solid aluminium on a lathe. just need a lathe..
-
if you do enough research, you can find out what boxes share the same syncro setup and buy a donor gearbox. how much time / access to tools do you have
-
Yeah. Despite all the dire predictions sometimes you get lucky. Take your time recompressing the tensioner, and be sure its putting good tension on the belt when done. It\'ll be the same age as the broken belt and probably a little tired

well sure, but when talking blindly about what a model should or shouldn\'t have, we have to talk about the default factory package. not just what was available if someone had extra cash?
i\'ll have a look later to back up the v5/v6 claim. right now my flat is data capped

Take your hand off it buddy and be a bigger man and admit your statement is \'\'Wrong\'\'!
\'\'Quote: only the V5/V6 STI RA V-Limited got helical front diffs. everything else pre bug-eye is open.\'\'
Like i said that is not true. end of
alright, i was wrong. not sure what i was supposed to be doing with my hand though
-
anyone got a high res version of this? http://a15ff11300g.sakura.ne.jp/catalogue/GC.GFinpreza/98.2%20impreza%20V-Limited/98.2%20impreza%20V-Limited.html

i\'m not arguing with you, i\'m trying to discuss. if the V4\'s got helical\'s then thats awesome. now lets find some supporting documentation

most wrx versions got a viscous lsd. most sti got a mechanical clutch lsd. there is info around if you have your car model / transmission codes handy
-
only the V5/V6 STI RA V-Limited got helical front diffs. everything else pre bug-eye is open. so yeah, unless its been fitted aftermarket they are quite rare
-
really? that\'d be impressive. what model did you see that happen to?
-
confusing desu. didn\'t you have your r160 mech re-shimmed? how are they to do that if its sealed? i think you\'ll find the basic design of a mechanical clutch diff similar enough that the cusco info is a useful example. left/right differential torque through the spider/pinion gears rotates the cross-shaft. depending on the cam angle of the cross-shaft and the groove you end up with expanding pressure on the clutches. in my previous post you can clearly see the two different set of grooves for 1.5 and 2 way setup
[quote name='speedfreak said:

on a side note the other diff is the a way of telling if its 1 way, 1.5 or 2 way easily?
..
you can see cross-shaft setup through holes in the diff casing, but no harm disassembling for fun
-
you should be able to tell by the shape of the groove that the cross-shaft sits in
http://www.limited-slip.com/acatalog/How_A_Cusco_LSD_Works.html
this one is selectable if you rotate the cross-shaft
-
they are a pain to bleed correctly, thats for sure. had the cylinders been cleaned/honed?
anyway, just have a look at the slave: without removing the cylinder, peel back the rubber seal and see if its filled with fluid?
how many bleed points do you have? some clutches have another circuit that runs around the firewall just to dampen vibration
-
yar! that large lump is the viscous coupling.
-
well thats cool. those two units are only 8 serial numbers apart.
also check the firmware sticker. they are the same number. i\'m going to suggest they are both running the same tune, one with the external eprom, and yours burnt into the processor memory.
also note the ecu with the firmware chip already had a sticker under the SA sticker. so i assume its a recycled new unit from JECS
maybe that was the cross-over point at the JECS factory? seems that on a limited production run for this model the JECS factory just worked with what they had
must have been just on the change over on the production line.

..i was half way through researching this drunk, got frustrated that the russian subaru fast server is down then got called to bed lol
anyway yeah it does seem to be a ~95 WRX RA with the electrics optioned, and some other sti bits slapped on
its just that something about it bugs me. i guess i just want to look at it in person
