yeah figured the way up they had to go by the fan plugs and nipple placement on the radiator, tried left and right so will have to try that again, if a no go cable ties sound good to me.

thanks

[Guest]

Did a radiatpr flush, put coolant in radiator and also cleaned car.

[WRXER]

It still lives, took my wrx out for a stretch. God I missed boost, and forgot how short the RA box is with the short shifter lol.

[Guest]

Playing dumb here... Whats an ra box?

[WRXER]

It's a gearbox from the STI wrx RA, they are short ratio gearboxes.

[Guest]

[Guest]

Still playing dumb... Short as in u gota change gear faster?

[nztintin]

yes that is correct, the ratios are closer together = Shorter= faster accelration=faster between gears=lower top speed=more fuel use

I didn't find my 5spd RA box too bad. The 3,600rpm rev at ~105km was annoying at first, but you got used to it. Would still get 500k-ish on open road driving.

[Guest]

Next dumb Q from me... What does JDM mean?

[Jambun]
