  1. another one, I have an opportunity to buy gc8 gold wheels, I am trying to go back to Standardish look. did the V2 sti have gold mags from factory? Cheers
  2. v2 is running 17-18 psi.... ??? this seems high I found out with installation of boost gauge today
  3. Firstly is there any difference between a wrx and wrx sti manifold. apart from colour secondly will a v3/4 manifold fit in a v2 sti with having to mod anything? I am planning on buying a cheap v3/4 manifold, painting it and swapping it in, however its from a wrx not an sti and from a v3/4 not a v2. I would hate to fit a wrx manifold on and find its reduces hp due to differences. Cheers
  4. bought a lamco boost gauge, 2nd hand, has only short vacuum line, how do I connect the new vacuum line to the old vacuum line? it seems that I can just open up back of boost gauge and take off old line so I need to connect new line to old some how??!?!?
  5. took car to mechanic oil leak near turbo causing smoke Got under car and realised that I have a massive genuine Mines strut brace. very stoked
  6. For turbo oil return and tappit gasket
  7. Wat sorta cost we looking at here?
  8. Expensive to get done? Wat will damage be if I leave it for while
  9. Hi WTF is going on here? its hard to see but white smoke or something is coming from the turbo area!?!?! why is this happening! oil is dropping neither is water levels. why is my turbo doing this? Cheers
  10. cool cool Thanks for that What is the max boost that is generally accepted as safe with the TD05h? 1995 v2 sti engine
  11. thanks for that So basically from that write up a cheap ebc will not use a solenoid to control boost. Does that mean with a closed boost system u would have to use an external wastegate or is it still fine with a internal? Cheers
  12. Whats the difference between closed and open? :-\
  13. Hi there Does any one know anything about the scarles range of HDi boost controllers? they are damn cheap at around $200 but are they any good? any info on them from anyone would be great? Cheers James
  14. \https://partsouq.com/ They ship DHL Tracked and insured and cheap. I use the following site for part numbers: http://opposedforces.com/ You would need to do a bit more research but i think this is the right one at the top http://opposedforces.com/parts/impreza/en_g10/type_56/engine/engine_gasket_and_seal_kit/ https://partsouq.com/en/search/search?q=10105AA120 Legend
  15. Nice write up bro! With the EBC whats the max "safe" boost without upgrading injectors I should aim for small power gains in a v2 sti with a TD05? Cheers
  16. Was my thoughts as well, I went to a wreakers and they wanted $75 so might just silicone
  17. I voted for Version 2 as I have one they are great, feel like a proper car, small, fast, loud. The savagery of the TD05 makes the car feel genuine and like a drivers car not like my old v9 sti which was easier to mod and undoubtedly faster but was overly controlled by the electronics. There wasn\'t a big turbo kick etc. The V2 makes you feel like possum bourne, it has an amazing sound and is a true classic. It doesn\'t drive the best, it isn\'t the fastest around the twisties and not in a straight line but its the best of the early-mid 90s 2.0l turbos! Just a true master of its time.
  18. Unfortunatly not, I am in Auckland [quote name='jost said: You can buy genuine overseas for less than trade here (up to 50% off) Check the link below, You would have to confirm correct part numbers, they ship internationally, are quick and really cheap This lot is $300 delivered, not bad for a genuine full engine gasket set. url=https://partsouq.com/en/search/search?q=10105AA560]https://partsouq.com/en/search/search?q=10105AA560[/url] Thanks mate
  19. bro what the fuck! I am totally gutted for you. That is an amazing looking car! I never saw it run, how fast was it?
  20. I could try and glue it without it being obvious? Or some sorta non-obvious adhesive
  21. But it cant be it has red on manifold, the chassis code is for v2 as well as gearbox, strut brace is carbon. maybe they did have an option of bj for v2. I wish I knew what the options all mean!
