  1. BP on the corner of Sparks road and Hoon Hay road were still selling it last time i was there on Saturday
  2. Sorry must be 2.5 turns lock to lock than, will double check when i get home, will also grab the number off the steering rack
  3. Mine is a v2 sti ra and im sure it has a quick rack steering, is there any way of finding out for sure? It has 1.5 turns lock to lock i think it is
  4. Just had a read through all of this, your work looks fantastic. Wish i had the brains and skill to do this.
  5. Exactly, love this car, if only i could find those wheel for my car. Any idea what size they would be?
  6. Sweet cheers for clearing a few things up. How does this sound for a plan. Yellow top? injectors Tidy up the standard intercooler Walbro intank fuel pump Fuel pressure regulator Chip+tune 300hp? Does anyone know much about how the wrc engines were set up?
  7. Sounds like a lot more work than first thought. As you said i would like to keep the 5th injector as it is quite a unique car. What supporting mods would you do to get the most out of the engine as is? You were saying they tend to run out of fuel due to the small injectors, if i was to upgrade the injectors, new fuel pump, tidy intercooler and possibly a link or chip+tune. Should this improve the performance. Not that it really needs it, but you know what its like once you get that bug ;D The missus wants to give me a race down the strip once our cars are both up to scratch so i need to make sure i dont loose ;D Also you said the 5th injector doesnt do bugger all, is there a way to get this working? Assuming it would make a difference?
  8. If not many people like the car why is it part of the banner lol ???
  9. I have an apexi intake so intake to turbo, but standard turbo to intercooler piping? Or are the sti intakes as good as they get?
  10. Not keen on chopping up things to make it fit, the wrc guys got away without running a front mount, so im sure i can The reason i want to go v3 intercooler is a read they flow alot better than the v2 one, not so much for cooling reasons as i dont plan on running massive power.
  11. Hmmm dont realy want to go fmic, i may just buy a v3 intercooler and see what i can do, have a bit of a play around.
  12. Yes i have alot closer ratio gearbox than the missus car. Anyway back to the intercooler, does anyone know how i would get on with keeping the 5th injector with a later version intake? And can i still use evrything else? Fuel rails ect
  13. I see your selling a 6speed setup would this include everything i would need?
  14. Just wondering whose the wrx is in the above clubsub banner, looks very nice any more pics?
  15. When boosting my car it does feel like it is laggy until around 4grand than it gets this big surge of boost, which i assumed was when the 5th injector kicked in? Maybe someone local who knows a thing or two about them wanted to come for a ride see what there thoughts are? It is certainly a shite load quicker in 1st 2nd and 3rd than the missus v3 sti, but seems about the same after maybe 120kmh ish. But down low the missus v3 has a lot more response and seems to build boost alot quicker and smoother
  16. What about the STI RA v2 gearboxes are they any different? Mine is starting to get a bit notchy so am considering rebuilding or a 6 speed conversion. As said above a 6 speed conversion should be relativly straight forward if i could retain all my rear diff ect? So all i would need would be box and auto drive shaft, is this correct?
  17. My understanding was the 5th injector kicks in when its boosting? If not is there any real need for it?
  18. Now im sure this has probably been covered but ive done a search and can\'t find anything. What im wanting to know is, if i was to upgrade the intercooler and intake manifold from my factory V2 sti set up to say a V3/4 set up is there anything else i will have to change to make this all fit? Also should this be a good upgrade? I alos want to keep the 5th injector, can i still use this with the later manifold?
  19. Just wondering what peoples thoughts are in regards to wheel size and offset to suit a V2 wrx, im unsure on which size i should choose as i dont know what will fit right. I dont mind rolling the guards abit, but i dont want to have to worry about gaurd rub or running sillly camber. I wont it set up so it will handle the best, but trying to keep it looking good aswell. So what im wanting is something that will fill the guards nice but still be practical. These are the sizes i can choose from, im wanting 17s and obviously 5x100 stud pattern. http://enkei.com/size_chart/RPF1.pdf Whats everyone opinion?
