I have got Sti pink top feeds which are 565cc I think? Not after big power with it yet as I still have the stock RA engine in there at the moment so once I build a forged engine for it then we can worry about more boost etc
-
Yeah I see where your coming from but either way man, Ive had the car off the road for over 2 years & im actually starting to get a bit over it now bigger & better things to move on with now so once its running & driving im happy
-
Yeah I was going to go for a G4 but we are having a baby in a few weeks & I really just want to get it running now im not sure how much further I will go with the car for a little while as other things are obviously going to take priority. So if I can get it running & driveable on the Possum that will keep me happy for now & maybe a bit later on spend the money & get the G4.

Hey guys, I know some of you know heaps about these ecu\'s etc & I know its a bit of a silly question but I have had a complete Apexi AVC-R set up ready to go in my WRX for a while now but have recently just purchased a Possumlink off Slydog on here. I decided to go for a possum link as alot of people have recommended it as a good value for money ECU for my Era of car being the older Version 2 RA.
What I want to know is am I able to run the possum link with the Apexi aswell or is that pretty much pointless?
Any help will be great thanks!

Mate that\'s a cool build! Can you post a shot from underneath the engine?
Here is a pic in relation to your question mate,

Woahhh dodgy engine removal there my bro! We usually use a big strop around the intake manifold & pull it straight forward to get it off a the gearbox studs then straight up.
Put a jack underneath the gearbox to lift the engine & box off the subframe mounts & your away. Btw nice alternator bracket/bearing & belt set up... haha it looks like I forgot to show you it needs a bush machined up for that bolt that tensions the alternator..I think I have it here too bro so I will try find it & let you know
Also it looks like you need my modified power steering pump bracket because when all fitted it up it should leave lots of room around the throttlebody like below
-
Thanks for the feedback - It is a bit of a trailer queen to be fair but it will be a 100% driveable car in the near future.
The alternator has been relocated to underneath the engine & the power steering has been taken out completely because with the vehicle being this light power steering is almost not necessary.
The breather filters are just there to serve the purpose of a tidy set up, I have a 1.5L catch can with -8 lines which can be mounted for track/street use
Alot of hours/time & research have gone into building this car & it isnt about to stop there but please feel free to advise me with anything you experienced subaru people out there.
Plenty more builds are underway aswell so keep checking the FB page.

You got it BMAGIC I never intended to go as far as we have so the set up has been built first & then now the appropriate block will be built to suit.

Hey guys please have a look at our facebook page to see current updates on any of the cars we are building,

Thanks guys I built the car pretty much myself & all been done DIY in my shed Paint etc but Ronnie Lim from RSL made me the headers up & piping to how I wanted, my old turbo is for sale btw so send me a pm if you did want it
Yeah cam angle sensor etc everything is all there, I just took the loom apart & pretty much built a new loom up & its all been covered in braided wiring sleeving in black so its very hard to see it there unless you really look.
Mounted the alternator underneath the engine because with these headers it makes HEAPS of room at the front of the engine
I ran with the original engine because as most people always say it was never meant to spiral out of control like this so stuck with the original RA closed deck block etc
-
Thanks mate,
The loom is fully there you just cant see it
The next parts is to fit the new clutch & just finish up a few things with the brakes so it will pass the cert & good to go. I need an auto electrician who is good with subarus to go over the car & check everything is hooked up correctly etc before we start it but I am 99% sure its all good. -
Hey guys, I dont really know very many people on here but here is a few pics of my car at the recent Supershow, 99% complete now & almost ready to turn the key

All that money to have a toilet seat on your roof

Luxury Sports do a specific v1-2 intercooler kit, I ran one on my car before i did the flipped intake manifold. awesome quality & has mount brackets etc which fit mint.
$550 for the kit is cheap too!
-
Sweet well it looks easy enough to swap that over & wire it up to the cluster, I am assuming there would be wiring that goes to the ecu aswell ? I am running a apexi RSM aswell which may come into it aswell(not hooked up yet)
-
so in order the run the newer dash, what would need to be changed?
-
Hey guys,
Just wondering if anyone knows if the newer wrx's like v5 etc still run a speedo cable type system or is it electronic with a speedo drive?
Im thinking of doing the newer dash swap in my car & need to know if it can still run the cable with the newer digital odometer etc
as for wiring I wont be running all the heaters/fans etc anyway so thats not a biggie
Thanks,
