i think your right the main north american importer is a speed shop very close to me, i am sure you could get them from them they have a US branch if im not mistaken.

i get a bit of a deal from my people so 1100even.

from what i hear bc or stance are made buy hsd, there made in south korea. not the best but sure do the job very well. had them in my legacy so i stuck with them for this project.

degreaser works the best i even wash the car with it called super clean purple bottle, canadian tire or walmart.






well i wanted to keep my oem steering wheel in for cruise control but the pedal box is a bit different. then i found the oem horn button on jdm leones on ebay for nardi wheel's, i had to i could not resist. i also found the real momo hub for the leone in germany on its way specific for my car.

[keithmoilanen]

[COTruckin]

This thing is going to be sick. The fitment of the new drivetrain looks amazing.

[NICO]

very lucky on my part finding this car thats for sure ! or else all this stuff would have been in my old legacy

so far it looks all good next is rear end work for diff so lets hope its as easy as the front now.

[Legacy777]

That thing is amazing! It's going to be one hell of a quick car.

I wish I had the time you have to work on my Legacy. Damn work, life, and such is getting in the way of working on my car

[ggbox69]

Really looks good! This build won me over, at first I was bummed to see a cherry car go under the knife, but now I'm just excited, it's a righteous build!

[Doaomo]

Pure sleeper PORN!!!

see its not so bad ! dont get me wrong i didnt want to do it but its pure nuts now !... and it has all the nice new stuff subaru made us to take advantage of this little car.

Pure sleeper PORN!!!

LOL so true, lets hope the sti wheels and 4pot brakes keep it that way still, i could use the 13inch stock wheels and brakes but i dont want to die !





well this just worked out perfect ! its like subaru new i was going to stick a water pump for my AWIC set up.

[Legacy777]

That is a good spot, however the only issue I can maybe see occuring is it may be difficult to prime the system and get all the air out. Usually you want the pump at your lowest point in the system or close to it. With it being up there, you may get an air pocket come into the pump which may "vapor lock" it.

Where is the suction side of your pump coming from? You may be able to help reduce this issue by routing the suction from the AWIC core. As long as the cap is open, (assuming that is your high point) the air should come out before it goes back into the pump. If you go from the radiator/exchanger in the front to the pump and then the AWIC core, you may have more issues.

these pump push fluid so i think we might be ok, it also sits lower then the top of the level.


Bosch 044 fuel pump, need some angle fitting and done.


rear mustache bar is ready to hold the R180 just need to make a bracket for the front of the diff and done.
