Yup. Sick Car.

2 more pictures, I used MS Paint.

Last saturday I drove 3 laps on the most beautifull circuit in the world.



Lots of cars/the smell of brakes, clutch, and rubber/great scenery/beer/german sausages with fries.

There was a group of Russians with cars:
F430 Scuderia
9FF 780HP
Nissan GT'R
Alpina B6 S
Gallardo Superleggera

I've seen them all

Where are the pictures of those cars

Jealous.

My Legacy is now a Turbo !!
It ran for a couple of minutes now.















260 BHP WRX ECU and a TD05

WHOA, Talk about making a comeback. Nice choice for an engine. Which ECU did you pick up?

It's an WRX MY94-96 GC8C ecu wich produces 260 BHP with a TD05. A standard Impreza WRX setup.
The ECU is imported from Japan together with an almost new exhaust manifold from a twin turbo Legacy.


I also changed the gearbox to a Legacy Turbo RA gearbox.
And I had to change pedals because of the hydraulic clutch.

Took me about 10 months to gather parts. Next time I'll buy a donor car.

Looks good!

Yeah, getting a donor car is almost always a better idea than trying to source the parts individually.

Placed a new Cosworth (dry) air filter.
I still need a Lambda plug, I have a lambda hole in my exhaust manifold. (Twin turbo manifold)

Any thoughts of fabricating a smaller turbo on the driver's side?

Nope

Took some effort to get to this point!
Rust is gone!




Inside

Last weekend in Brussels, first 625 miles easy on the throttle and revs because of the new engine.

Nice body repair!

@Legacy 777
It was fun to do it the good way but it cost me 25 hours to the "primer paint" state!

I also was in need of a brakes upgrade.
Front brakes were still 1 piston with 260mm discs.
And with a Turbo that isn't sufficient.







Now 294mm discs 4 piston calipers with Hawk performance brake pads.
Not hitting a brick wall yet but it performs much much much better.
