Manual conversion


toad

Recommended Posts

Hey, long story short I got a 1997 forester which I got as payment for fixing a car and it was auto but the previous owner had started a manual conversion using bits out of a bc5. He put peddle box in and that's all. I have the gearbox, diff, driveshaft, halfshafts, a complete rear subframe assembly hubs etc aswell, everything needed to do the manual conversion. My question is do I use the hubs, halfshafts and what else out of the rear subframe of the bc5 would I need or can I use some of the Forrester gear? I also have a complete front subframe with hubs etc as well. How much of that would I need for the front or can I use the Forrester gear. Not sure if the halfshafts are the same length and the trailing arms etc. Any help would be awesome.

Thanks

GB Clutch stuff & manual shaft is it I think

never done it myself but the rest should be fine if you get a matching diff ratio GB otherwise use the diff that came with the box?

the rest is surplus iirc someone will confirm hopefully

there might be a guide in the gearbox/ drivetrain section (check the Faq @ top of every section

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
