    Yea in all honesty I don't have the budget for that, would double it and it's really not worth it for whats in my engine.

    At the end of the day its just a wrx engine with a vf23 on it. A few nice things bolted on but that's it.

    Maybe later on i'd consider it, but for now it'll be fine as is

    GT has a $900 G2 Linkplus for sale... It would save a lot of wiring work ;)

    Hi guys,

    I'm looking to purchase some STI bucket seats (red and black) and wanting to fit to a 92 RS, wondering if these will bolt straight in, if not, what sort of rails I'll need to fit them, would universal rails fit?

    Cheers

    They will fit straight into your car.

    Where about are you? I don't have STI ones, however i have some WRX for cheap in Wellington..

    i think his legacy is a 2nd generation GTB, and not a B4. his b4 = before lol

    im going to agree with you on this one

    Im going with the problem is car realted and due to an issue in the conversion. From your english im guessing a leak or incorrectly plumbed vac line

    or the conversion to the wrx ecu is causing the issues

    really im just taking a shoot in the dark

    Haha yeah it was a bit of a mission to count.. and had to do it twice cos mis counted the first time... and of course I made him wait through it all as well.. his own fault!

    But hey, as long as it's all there.. it's still money! Nothing the bank won't take care of tomorrow.

    Remember to take your ID with you and don't get offended when they ask you were you got it from ;)

    Was your turbo still there?

    I'm sure that over time you can fix it all up, If there is anything you need, PM or text me and i'll have a look through my stuff for you. I don't have many BC parts left anymore.

    they taken the turbo and replaced it with a VF10 and a crap as exhaust

    That sucks big time indeed. I hope insurance might be able to cover some of it? otherwise im sure us clubsuber could help out

    maybe it was dereged and then rechecked from scratch so no history

    Mine was done like that and this is the information i get - 1992 Subaru Impreza WRX

    Registration status: Active

    Registration origin: New Zealand New

    Vehicle usage: Private Passenger

    Cause of latest registration: Reregistered

    Date of first registration in New Zealand: 2001, August 29th

    Date of last registration: 2005, December 29th

    Was registered overseas?: No

    Previous country of registration: New Zealand

    Also by the look of that car jam, you might want to put the rego on hold or get a WOF and pay as if it reaches 12 months the car will become deregistered again.

    its pretty easy once you get your head around it, work out whats 12 volt (coils, boost solenoid etc), and whats 5v volt (TPS, MAP etc), the ecu just switches the earth to complete the circuit. Cam and Crank sensors have their own +/- on the ecu. All the 5v sensors have their own ground on the ecu

    Once you follow the diagram for your car it makes pretty good sense

    I could do my own, but still gonna pay my auto sparky to do a tidy job, I worked out all the pinouts and new sensors for him though

    Yeah I've done the pinout for it and completely re-wired the manifold I'm going to use. I'm up to sorting out how to do the next set (Fuses & Relays) as I'm future proofing it as much as possible. Normally you will only need 3-4 relays and i have 6 at the moment.

    Hopefully that VF8 should last for another event. At which i should have my VF28 off and ready to be sold. Good to see that the clutch change went smoothly. Did you take the engine out like previous said?

    /quote]

    Engine out. Still might need the VF28 by then. Me and VF8's just don't get on. Manfield 4th Feb, will see if this on lasts.

    Good luck with the wiring challenge, when your done pop over and do the GT too :P;)

    If you want it before then, you are more that welcome to come and remove it from the WRX. (also drain the water) I'm 99% sure that I'm not going to need it for anything as i'll just slap the TD05 on when i do the mock up for twisted turbo.

    I have already started preparing for the GT. That shouldn't be too hard to do as we are just joining wires together off the original loom. Will probably take me a whole day as i would want to get it prefect.

    Been a good few days over the break;

    The 89 RS has had the drivers side out CV boot replaced, oil & filter change and a couple of local cruises just for fun. 8)

    The 91 GT has had the new tires (Dunlop Direzza Z1S Starspec) put on for a bit of a test drive ;) followed by dash cluster change removing the auto and replacing with manual dash and integrating a 240 km/h speedo and followed today with a new clutch and turbo change. The third VF8, will see how long this one lasts, but not counting on very long based on my past experiences. Looking for a VF23, VF28 or TD05. 8) Also had a couple of local cruises with the 91.

    Thanks to DCVR, Steve, Hamish & Rob for their help today.

    Getting things ticked off the list ... two more biggish things to go ... front mount and G3 Link install. The rest of my list is smaller items such as gauges etc. :D

    I've started Operation Wire Up, Starting with the intake manifold. I'm going to be completely rewiring the thing for my Link install. Replacing all the factory wiring, only using the factory plugs are they are hard to find replacement that doesn't cost the world.
