I bought a EJ20K intake which (in theory) will let me run the turbo inlet under the intake runners when I put the EJ25D Heads on my SS.

it will but you'll need a different p/s pump or maybe just the remote reservoir.


I did this yesterday:



because this happened:

whoa. turbo time?

Well it's good to hear another confirmation that this thing will fit. I'll deal with the PS when that time comes, but I'll probably just move it to the other side if need be.

Changed the oil - Factory skip plate makes it more interesting that it needs to be!

If you can find a small access door from a marine supply place, you could cut a hole in the plate and cover it with the door. Or you could just leave it open like I did on the Mazda.

It has an opening for the bolt, but one problem I had was that the socket that I had on the bolt, and it was a short socket, bumps up against the skid plate. I had to slightly re-tighten the bolt to take the socket off, then take the bolt out by hand.

I bolted my 20k intake mani to the ej25D heads and compared them to the stocker.

Comparison with a 2.5" pipe under the mani.



I didn't take pics, but I also bolted the 25d IAC and TB on. I had to flip the TB 180 degrees, but I think it'll work easy enough, I already started modifying a factory throttle bracket to Fit, but I didn't want to go pull a Throttle cable out of a car to fit it all up.

I hope to put together the mock up motor this weekend maybe start figuring some stuff out. Then I need to decide on which turbo to use: TD04, Or a BorgWarner Off a Diesel...hmm

Finally got layed off so gave Angel some much needed lovin. Oil change to Castrol Full synthetic 10w30, Transmition flush and new fluid. Drained both diffs and filled with Synthetic GL40.

Not sure which it was or if it was a combination of the above but it definatly put some pep in her step!

Also updated my ICE. (wtf does that mean anyways?) pics to come.

Just keep in mind you have to clear the fuel lines. That's the real fitment issue there.

I assume your talking to me? I have something in mind for that.

Switched to a body colored hoodscoop. photos to come.

Installed my Walboro 255 fuel pump...

Hardest part was getting the old one out. Straight in installation and I like the wiring harness that comes with the Walboro better than I do the stock one.

Hacked out port hole for subwoofer between the rear speakers. Put a grille on it and then will carpet for stealthy look. Also finished putting in wrx rear seats, and swapped my lap belts buckles from my old seats to new ones and now i have lap belt again. Yay. reset my ECU... And fixet a window trim that was causing freeway wind noise...

yesterday i pulled all my calipers off and painted them bronze, blacked out all the chrome trim around the car, and tinted my tail lights... also washed it and finnaly hooked up my reverse light switch on the 6mt

received and installed my EDM headlights! And I didnt have to break anything to get them in or the old ones out!

Bye Bye Wagon

Before you let it go make sure you remove the... no.. no you got it.

hey, i gotta get the 92 ss running somehow...

I bought a new shiny intercooler.

i won a street race against a 2004 hyundai tiburon and hit 125 mph at 5000 rpm, not bad for a car with 247600 miles on it and racing about five miles. im really proud of my car and my second win racing
