The intercooler and intake manifold on the LGT are different then the Impreza STi, so the turbo will not bolt up properly. Unless you replace the intercooler and intake manifold as well. And, if your spending the money on that, why go with a puny vf39.

You can get an ECUtek reflash for the LGT, but I believe the ECU is slightly different, so you can't just throw a reflashed Impreza STi ECU into the LGT.

Any fuel pump/injectors/headers that fits an Impreza STi will fit the LGT. The stock parts are the same as the Impreza STi stock parts.

I believe most uppipes will fit, and downpipes will bolt up, but are about 3" short of bolting up to the midpipe.

I don't think intakes fit because the hole where an intake enters the fender is in a slightly different location, plus I think the engine bay is slightly bigger.

Turbo Back Exhausts will not fit without a little bit of rewelding because of the slightly different exhaust path (and increased length to get to the back).

Suspension pieces will not fit.

Anything else?

Nihongo o hanasemasen :rotfl:

Anyways, I've had a friend in Japan send me a few, and they are pretty neat to look at, even if you can't understand the language (I only have a basic understanding, and don't even try to read the magazines).

Pretty pictures, and you can sometimes pick up enough english characters/words to see whats going on.

They are certainly tough to read, but you can get a lot of information out of them, even if you can't speak the language.
