Got some more fitment done over the weekend, this time with some brackets. I'm still working out some mounting issues and some issues with the center console. Hope to have more done this week but highly unlikely since my wedding is Saturday, we'll see.

Here's some pics. Great Gap compared to some of the builds I was looking at.

ImageImage

HVAC Lined up nice, hardly a gap where the box meets the vents.

Image

Looks like I will be converting to manual seat belts. Not too happy about that at the moment, I kinda like having power seat belts.

ImageImageImage

Also another nice little "lol" piece I got this weekend that I've wanted ever since the design came out.

Image

I'm looking forward to that in the end. I'll keep the flange on it, that way if someday I decide to go a little bit louder I can just buy a used axle back from nasioc.

At the moment my exhaust is bell mouth down pipe 3" all the way to a stock 04-07 STI axle back. I'm wondering if this muffler will flow or sound better.

One thing I am curious about as far as the amount of images I have been sharing, Is it inconvenient that I only post the thumbs or would you guys rather me post the standard photobucket sized images. I'm sure it's a hassle to click the link then go back ad click the next link.

Your feedback is appreciated.

I prefer to see the small pics and click on the ones I'm interested in, than have my phone struggle and chew through bandwidth, for these sets. Where you post only a few pics, I prefer to see the larger size.

I'm the exact opposite. I can hardly see the thumbnails on my phone but I'm not gonna go through the effort and time it would take to click each one and then go back and click the next one so I just don't really see any of them. I've got unlimited data so that's not an issue. Its up to you, really.

I would but my phone sucks and its old and a lot of stuff doesn't load right or takes forver to load flash pages so I don't bother. Might have a new phone tomorrow though if the tracking info is correct.

Little update. I powered the harness up to check that I got fuel. Pump worked :-D I did not swap gas tanks. Tuner can delete the codes for the extra sensors. I still have to work on location for some chassis plugs that I don't know what go to. I wired up the tail lights and license plate lights Thursday. I cant test them until I get the wrx wiper stalk and Body Integrated Unit. Need paypal to release my funds before I can pick those up, or just wait til payday.

Still have to work on the door harnesses and the headlights then I can put the carpet back in and the front doors on. Then do the final mock up of the dash and final install. After that it's all motor work.

I was intimidated by this whole process at first, but after figuring out the wiring and dash it all seems more simple than how difficult I made it out to be.

Wont be ready for WCSS but hopefully I'll be driving it by the end of the year.

More pics.

I like the location I chose for the fuel pump controller.

I really hate nasioc sometimes..... Check this thread out. I'm eph on nasioc btw...

http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthr ... ?t=2651494

Anyways now I have to dig into the diagrams more. That's literally becoming an eyesore, but to save myself from getting bashed on nasioc I guess that's what I have to do.

Here's something someone here can help me out with tho.

Pictured below is diagrams of the headlight wiring. Left is Legacy, Right is WRX. Right Actually says what's High and Low beam. Left does not. Would someone please clear that up for me?

Pin 1 on the headlights are the high beams. You can follow that wiring over to the high beam indicator on the bottom right of that page to confirm.

And it was said "Let there be light."

WRX harness plugged right into the transmission harness. WRX harness plugged right into the brake light switch. Wiper plug was different but same color wire so I just soldered the Legacy plug to the WRX harness and the wipers work.

I did this with some sort of wiper stalk I picked up from a buddy. It's not WRX and it's for a wagon, but it worked. I still need to do some double checking on that tho because it may have some differences. I'll get into that later after I get the illumination module (body integrated unit) and verify the rest of the dash works.

It's getting closer and there's no emoticon that can describe the grin on my face while I'm typing this.
