Thank you for the part number!

Binford: Got any pictures? I am curious about your handiwork.

I am currently in the process of putting my EJ22T/EJ25 hybrid back in my Impreza, but I seem to have run in to a snag. I can't get a straight answer out of anyone about if there are any clips that hold the throwout bearing to the clutch arm. The reason why I am asking here is that the clutch kit is ...

My turbo crossmember got routed to the wrong UPS facility, some place down near Cinci. The new scheduled delivery date is 9/20, and I've lost another weekend for a stupid reason.

Build journal is up now!

MS came in today, so now I can start working on the harness adapter. Megasquirt II v3.57 PCB http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v202/MegamanEXE/Subaru%20Swap/274483ff.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v202/MegamanEXE/Subaru%20Swap/baffda3d.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v202/MegamanEXE/Sub...

Megasquirt shipped today, should be here by Wednesday. As far as the Turbo Crossmember goes, I am awfully close to filing a Paypal dispute, as its been almost 2 weeks and the crossmember hasn't shipped yet. But the good news is, THE MANIFOLD IS HERE! Pictures of the TGV's, Manifold itself, and the S...

In my never ending quest to not waste my weekends, after the Porsche club autocross today I focused on the gas tank of the car. It was full of 87 when I parked it. Heres the list of ingredients to remove it: 1x long section of Audi 4000 heater hose 1x Fuel pump 1x Jumper cables 1x Battery 1x Fuel Ju...

Ordered some parts, and I am waiting on them to get here. The first is a 1991 Legacy Turbo engine crossmember, one of the parts I was having a pretty hard time finding. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v202/MegamanEXE/9f380a30.jpg The second is a 2005 STi Intake manifold, with TGV's and fuel rails ...

Not planning on stripping the interior out, but want to remove some weight from the car. What I will probably do is carpet over what I took out, in order to dampen the sound a bit. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v202/MegamanEXE/Subaru%20Swap/ecbe5f15.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v202/Meg...

Got the timing belt and most of the accessories on the motor. Left the alternator off to make hooking up the oil pressure sensor easier. Trying to figure out what to do with the timing covers, may need to fab something up. Also took one head off of the old motor to see if we could see any damage. ht...

This was a massive PITA, and I broke a few pins on the bottom row, but I think it will be ok to use. Pretty sure I can fix whats broken. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v202/MegamanEXE/Subaru%20Swap/ab65e6c8.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v202/MegamanEXE/Subaru%20Swap/2d6e59b9.jpg http://im...

Started today with a much needed upgrade to the garage lighting. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v202/MegamanEXE/Subaru%20Swap/0cff86fd.jpg We then proceeded to finish disconnecting whatever was connected to the motor in it, and began to take it out. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v202/MegamanE...

My Canadian relatives were in town this weekend, so I only had about an hour to do any work on it. I took the hood off, airbox and pipe out, AC disconnected (already evacuated by Sean/crossle), took the radiator out, took the battery out, disconnected the alternator, and thats about all I had time f...

Car had near catastrophic overheating yesterday. Car is officially parked to being the swap. Picking up a new DD this weekend, a mint condition VW Quantum.

Timing kit arrived yesterday, 3 days late, but its here now. Way too expensive for 4 pulleys.

Got heads! They came off of Nathan's car. This will let me run factory dual port exhaust components, which is awesome, because we thought we were going to have to use the F word (fabricate). I do need to get a WRX crossmember to make all that plumbing work, though. I will be running them with EJ22T ...

Project is in a short stall, because I decided to build a new Core i7 920 computer, to replace my old Core 2 Duo E4300 machine. I am trying to find someone to take care of the rust on the car, and have been chatting with Kevin Clifford on Columbus Racing. I also want to do a full interior swap, as m...

Ok, ECU is here. I got a killer deal on this. Paid $120 plus shipping. He included two GM sensors, coolant temp and something else, IDK, I am probably not going to use them. I was kind of hoping it was a PCB V 3.0 or higher, but its a 2.2. Thats fine, I will just have to be more careful with my wiri...

Yes, I have the heads from Bill. One of the rocker arms is busted on one, but the rest of the heads look ok. They are going to get inspected regardless, but at the very least that one arm needs replaced. So if anyone has the hookup on those or has one laying around, let me know. I will take some pic...

Got the engine on the stand today, and inspected the cylinder walls a bit. Look super clean, and still had the cross hatching on the walls. Pistons looked great also, except for a small mark where it looks like a valve met one, but I don't think thats a problem. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v20...

I picked up the shortblock yesterday. He included some "bonus parts" I guess you would call them. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v202/MegamanEXE/Subaru%20Swap/block1.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v202/MegamanEXE/Subaru%20Swap/block2.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v202/Meg...
