Just in case this helps anyone in the future.

Oil jet/squirter washer measurements: .405" OD, .208" ID, .039" thick. Or 10.3mm OD, 5.3mm ID, 1mm thick.

I ordered washers from McMaster Carr, part no. 93286A011. About $10.00 for 100 washers iirc. Over 11k on my build so far.

Yes, the turbo goes upward but the guts from an NA are the same. So you can take the internals out of the NA IACV and put it in your turbo IACV housing if you still have it. It's just an option if you can't find a turbo one.

I have one that fits a second gen Legacy. I took it off my 95 L wagon and put it on my 03 WRX but I can't get it to stop clunking with my Kartboy endlinks so I am going to put the stock swaybar back on. It feels great but the clunking is driving me crazy. It didn't make any noise on my 95 L. I thoug...

I don't have one but you can take an NA IACV and swap it over to your housing and it will work.

I used a tank from a WRX and relocated it next to the ABS module on the passenger side of the engine bay. I bought a piece of 90* aluminum stock and cut and modified it to act as a brace. A few writeups on how to do it are out there. Not a bad job at all and you get rid of that horrible plastic tank...

Also, what are you going to do about the forward PCV? 90* port on the top of the 22t block? I mocked up the ej205/255/7 crossover pipe on my block and it contacts that pipe. My idea is to use a phase I crossover pipe with the sensors on the same side as the ej205's so the wiring easily reaches and ...

I'm running a 22T/205 hybrid as well. Wiseco pistons, STI rods, chamber matched heads, STi cams & valvetrain, tgv deletes... Opensource tune 03 Wrx ecu (this setup is in my 03 Wrx), and td04. Currently putting down 240-260 whp and 260ish lbsft @ 4500 feet above sea level. Catless tbe, SPT exhaus...

I bet your starter contacts are worn. Pull the starter and replace the contacts. If you have an alternator/starter rebuild shop in your city they can sell you some for a couple bucks. Otherwise you can order a kit on eBay for about $10. Or just buy a new starter.

I'll check it out. Seems like plugging it won't cause any problems so I might just go that route. As far as the 205 not having a crankcase breather, that is what I had been reading but when I looked up the pcv diagram there is a crankcase breather on the backside of the engine near the flywheel acce...

I am building a 22T/205 hybrid and I noticed the combustion chamber diameter of the 22T heads are the same as the 205 heads...

I have a healthy fear of RX turbo engines. My buddy spent $16k on his rebuild. Car was insanely fast. Lasted a day before the crank bearing oozed out of the front. So he rebuilt it again. Lasted a few days. Car was igniting when it wasn't supposed to and blew up his seals. He's on rebuild number thr...

I am building a 22T/205 hybrid. I went to install the WRX coolant crossover pipe and the 22T crankcase breather elbow is in the way: http://i301.photobucket.com/albums/nn41/henry616/Mobile%20Uploads/08BC1366-94B6-4CDE-8D4B-74BE51DA9C8B_zpsfunzzc5v.jpg http://i301.photobucket.com/albums/nn41/henry616...

I didn't realize that there were two types of washers. Six dowty washers for the coolant jacket bolts and four regular washers for the other case bolts. http://i301.photobucket.com/albums/nn41/henry616/Mobile%20Uploads/84BCE8E9-B2D1-4173-9F94-4FF4F47F1B33_zpstzcw2rnt.jpg The old washers were in bad ...

I am building a 22T/205 hybrid. Wiseco pistons, STi rods, new OEM bearings, 22T crank. One of the water jacket bolts got a little stripped, and I cut a groove in the other to make it into a thread cleaner. I lost the two corresponding washers for them. I ordered two new water jacket bolts and two wa...

Thanks again Josh!

Nice write up. I'm in SLC as well.

I purchased a set of slightly used kyb gr2s and some h&r sport springs w/5k with the intent of installing them on my 95 BK wagon a couple years ago. I never got around to installing them and I am selling my wagon soon since I bought a Wrx. They came with spacers for the rear to counter saggy but...

Nice job matching the oil filter rally blue!!!

Awesome Nico! I love your builds.

That's great news. I'll have to pull the trigger on a set and update when I install them. The rh fender has rotted off at the bottom and the lh is beginning to bubble, and both fenders have some pretty nast dents. I've combed the junkyards for a set of fenders but pretty much every one has some rust...

I want to replace both the rh and lh fenders on my 93 SS. Has anyone ordered/used one of the less expensive fenders available on ebay such as this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Fender-Driver-Left-Side-Front-Primered-LH-Hand-SU1240113-57110AA070-/231105395222?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&...

The Calsonic 73011 AA091 AC compressor was a direct fit and is working like a charm!

The current AC compressor in the car is 73011 AA090. Some suggestions I have found searching this site for compatible AC compressors are: 73011 AA091, 73011 AA710, 73011 AA031, & 73011 AA090. My Subaru dealership gives 73011 AA020 as the replacement compressor for $796. Subarugenuineparts.com sa...

My wife's AC compressor died after I had it recharged last fall. It's getting hot and I am going to fix it. In the FSM the there are two part numbers for the AC compressor: 73020 AA030 & 730AA031 so it would seem they are interchangeable. The subaru dealership gave the the turbo AC compressor pa...

The difference in compression ratos was my main concern. The 22t is about 8.1:1 and the phase 1 22e is close to 9.5:1 iirc. With forged internals the 22t can handle a lot more than psi asssuming no det. At the very least id need a rrfpr. I think I might try it and see what happens. If it works I cou...
