Well I thought I should stop shooting my mouth off about my buildup and show some pics
http://ca.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/educat ... /my_photos
Here is the list so far
-1991 Legacy turbo body
-ej20 with AWIC 5 speed manual w/wrx linkage and poly bushing running a v1 STi ECU
-wrx struts w/H&R lowering springs on WRX wheels
-Divorsed downpipe going 3" to high flow cat and a Sti stock exhaust
-Manual Boost control
- Whiteline droplinks and endlinks
- 00 RS interior seats
Thats' it for now, next stop the body shop.
Anyone in ottawa know of a good body guy?

I believe it is out of an 89-91 JDM Legacy, apart from that I don't really know much else about it, The clutch was fairly worn out so it tells me it had about 100000km on it. Pretty clean though. I paid $1500 canadian shipped to my door from Atlanta GA. with tranny,ecu and cut harness.

Sounds like a great buildup. Just one question, if you dont mind me asking, how come youre using a 3" divorced downpipe, but stock exhaust? Even if it is STi, I bet you even a cherry bomb "turbo" muffler flows better.

I don't want it loud, I did the loud exhaust last year and it drove me nuts, I comute about 2 hours a day and I want something that's going to be quiet.

i lost my keys in coburg once on my way to ottawa. rental car had 2 key sets so i didnt notice till i got there. i havent gone rafting but i did go strawbery picking and i visited the beach while i was there. i know the guy that owns a vitiman store there. i cant rember the name of the store but he did the gnp mile thing, gave me one of the t-shirts from it.

Hey Jason, how did you find your vf39? compared to the stock vf11/12's we have stock in our cars, my project has a vf8, nobody here has one so i'll be interested in seeing how it goes.

i got the turbo off ebay. compared to the stock turbo it was overly impressive and fast as hell.
i dont know much about a vf8 but it sounds small.
