I might be interested in the pre-facelift Whiteline bar, if you're done w/ it.

I can not seem to find it in this mammoth thread lol... What did you have to do run the PowerFC with a 22t wiring harness?

I found a Link G3 that is plug and play with the Liberty RSs and I
m trying to figure out how much work its going to take to get it to work without changing harnesses...

It's not in this thread. Search for the "need electronics help" and the "how to 4 channel ecu" threads.

Basically:
1. mount a new ignitor near the ecu (dual 2-channel ignitors will work)
2. add 2 more ignition channels to the ECU connector.
3. Run all 4 igniton outputs to the new ignitor.
4. Bridge 4 ignitor outputs to stock harness (2 channels now).
5. bypass/jump out stock ignitor (ins>outs)
6. relocate one of the pressure sensor wires to a different ECU pin.
7. Profit

Yeah dude, I'd love to hear from you. That car was shaping up to be a beast before the accident.

Re: Added another to the collection. (update-Motivation prob

Post by PhyrraM »

Well the Cliffs Notes go something like this......

Lost motivation after the accident, but started collecting parts anyways. Swapped out the rear door, but still not really motivated. Talked to a few friends and coworkers that are capable of rebuilding/replacing the rocker panel, but none had the time. Started to assemble the motor instead, but needed to go slow for finance reasons.

Meanwhile, our sister company in Stockton, California hasn't made a dime in 3 years since it opened. So I agreed to go up and run the maintenance department. I see it as a form of job preservation because if that place tanks my company is at risk. Now I commute 400 miles every Sunday evening and Thurs/Fri afternoon. My motivation might be back, but the time isn't there. Weekends are for my kids and wife now.

The engine sits with the heads on and valves adjusted, but needing pumps, pan, pipes and plumbing. The Praxis suspension is ready to go, just needs time. The bodywork is still up in the air. The Canadian seatbelts and (headliner to match) are on the shelf waiting inline for thier turn. I have a preliminary tune for the Power FC to try. The insurance totaled the car, so to re-register it I need a brake and light inspection which means swapping the EDMs for USDM headlights. I also need to smog it, which means swapping the exhaust for stock-and likely playing with the tune.

The investors are supposed to make a descion on keeping the plant open for another year soon. If they do, I can hire a dedicated maintenance manager and go home. If they don't I can just go home. So hopefully motivation and free-time will co-mingle sometime in January.

I live just over the hill, so if you ever need any help just let me know and we can work something out, as I can always use the experience :D

^ Want to help me replace the wiring harness on my 93? lol

Jess - Good luck with the company stuff, I'm glad to hear the car is down but not out. How's the Winestone these days anyways?

Yeah. It's amazing how an SS parked in the back of a lot can attract a well trained eye.

Nice meeting you, and clean Legacy.

I would love to show some progress on the car too. Unfortunately, I can't.

I'm done working in Stockton, they sold the company I was working to save. However, I returned to my original location in trouble. I ended up with a $10K a year pay reduction, but a job.

He's a few pics of it's current condition. As soon as I catch up on 9 months of neglected housework, then I will start to move forward again.

And a few shots of the rest of the collection hanging out. The Winestone is an SS also.

And, just for completeness, moving to the front. The Outback is just getting a new motor, then sold.

Yep, 3 car garage and her's is the only one inside.

Yeah. I kinda hated going up there, but seeing it sold off just as we were starting to reap the fruits of our labor stings a bit.

We were about to land a big account, so the company that was about to lose the business made a back-end offer to our investors. They accepted, of course.
