Brembos just bolt up? Saweet!

Brembos no, Subaru 4 pots yes.

Front Brembo's bolt up just as easily as the Subaru 4-pots. Just need the bigger rotors and the particular bolts that come with them. I've got them on my BC5 front hubs

how much bigger do the rotors have to be?

[Stoffa]

330x32mm i think, factory 4 pot size is 294mm

294x22-24mm, and brembo are 30-32mm.

[B4 2000]

Brembo fronts 326x30, 28mm minimum!

But if you could get 330x32 they still should work fine!

What was said bolt for?

[94 Leone]

tried to start; but it seems the fuel pump isn't working I did the relay fine, but A21 earth, supposed to be A21 BH, or A21 WRX? I assumed WRX as it said on B134, not B136 D:

edit: Fuel pump primes now; water to turbo leaks slighty: will have to fix/longer hose. car still no start: wait for battery to charge: see if that fixes the problem.

Bought an oil filter + washer from Sublab. Last time I got it from there it cost me $28, but brought in a Trademe auction printout from Armstrong Subaru selling it for $20+$4 shipping, so saved me $8!

Also got me some upper engine cleaner which I'll do in the near future.

Rear swaybar to c-link bolt. Mine decided to fall out at some stage. They for some unfathomable reason had the nut in stock but not the bolt.

I get this all the time when ordering parts "Oh we can supply you 8 bolts 8 washers but we have only got 3 studs in stock the rest will be 6 weeks from japan " ( this was only last week) FFFARRRRKKKK

Installed misc clips around the car I got from a wrecker and a V4 STi gear knob. Much nicer than the stock Nardi one.

car still wont start: everything used to start. wont now I think it may be ECU related? I'm not sure, but It's an A7 I got off another member, has no speed cut; so thinking may be NZ new possibly therefore an immobilizer? car farts and burbles: just doesn't roar into life.

[Stoffa]

if it has an immobiliser the cam and crank polarities are reversed on a v5, may be something to check out

[94 Leone]

Would it try to wind over if it had an immobilizer?

yes. Just won't come to life

[94 Leone]

Cheers, I was thinking it may be the 2 year old fuel.

[clintondane]

Definitely getting fuel to the motor? Sounds stupid but it happened to our car, turned out the fuel relay was dodgy, thankfully only that and not the fuel pump.

[94 Leone]

I checked the lines, and they're definately getting fuel( ye olde take off line to see if fuel was there) was suggested that injectors may be blocked, but didn't sound like it.

[Swindog]

Crank sensor.

Wait you got a new ecu? Put the old one back in and see if it starts.

[94 Leone]

Nah, old ones TT, doesn't prime the fuel: but doesn't start either: does the same thing - fuel pump working

So, probably crank sensor, or negative polarity to crank sensor.

[clintondane]

We undid the fuel line and put it into a coke bottle, fired the engine up and alas, no fuel pressure at all. Good luck mate
