You need a gc8 harness and full sti harness as well. You need to splice about 200 wires I believe. Good luck, many people have failed the test of splicing. If all else fails you could ship your harnesses to East Coast Swappers to splice for you. It's about 500 dollars I believe, possibly a bit more, but worth every penny. One mis-splice could mean big trouble.

Yes, LIC would be your best bet in helping out your harness problems

I think it is a lot more than that now.

Garage tuning did my 04 STI swap into my 2001 RS. You might want to call them. Talk to Kevin or Brian. They'll be happy to help you although I wouldnt expect an entire walk through over the phone.

hu,
didnt think you could get that much from that little. LOL
I was just intrested because Im doing a hybrid for my Rs (04 sti lower end and RS roller upper). Didnt know a GT35R would put you to those numbers on a stock sti engine (GT35 being one of the front runners on tubro list for mine).

I would try LIC again, they really are cool guys, and have always just given up the info for me instead of trying to get me to take my car to them. The mods on the car do matter as far as wiring, since you can either go with the stock ecu, or if you're running that much, you could go to a hydra ems or some other form of ecu...
