ok guys I know this is taking longer then I want but things are getting done right. no cheap and quick slaped together car for me. so if you cant tell form the pic we did rotate the intake manifold. Let me tell you the only thing I could get out of most shops that do this is "well you have to move the altenater" and that was about it. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA I wish it was that easy. So we dove in to it with out knowing that much. fuel lines, wiring, triming the intake manifold of the bracket studs and alot more come into play not to mention coolent lines and all the new lines that we have to do for the breather ports (2extra on the sti heads) and other tubing. but after about 7 hrs on just the intake manifold we figured out most of it. we still have a little bit to do but not much.

And also today I got a new toy woooot. I got a 95 2 door gc8. I am one happy camper and now I have a new project for when my other car is done. sorry that I dont have better pic but this is all I have. and it is not the greatest but it was free.

ahhh today was a nightmare but I got it all worked out. we are working on the avcs wiring. We are going to use the IAperformance wiring kit for the body harnes and as for the motor harnes we are going to repin the IAperformance kit to the tgv pins. then take the conectors off the tgv motor and sensor plugs and add the avcs silinoid plugs and the Cam sensor plugs to them. this way we can keep a stock looking harnes and we are not leaving wires just chillin. I will try and document everything so I can show how to do this. that way if anyone wants to do a jdm motor swap they can see how it is done. and they wont have to get a jdm wiring harnes. I will keep you guys posted

ok so I was playin with my 95 coupe today and I was thinking of puting the stock wrx turbo on the stock 2.2L. We were going to put this in my friends Rustys RX but I think we might play around first. I realy want a car that I can run in the dirt. I had an old 92 legacy sport (turbo) and I loved playing around in that and also in my last impreza coupe. so it is about time for a new toy. I am not sure what kinda power I can get out of that stock 2.2L block and heads but thank god it has the DP heads and not SP's. I have not ever looked at the header so I am not sure the wrx manifold will work but I guess it is worth a try. if not we will fab some.

ok so I lied about doing the 02 wrc kit. (well I did not lie I just am doing something diferent. Let me know what you guys think. and what you think I need to go with every thing. the things I have that are not shown are rims side skirts a rear bumper and EDM headlight (on the way). The GC is going to be put off for a bit and just fixed up stock to give my GF a car to drive in the snow. anyways the pics down below are of the parts just siting on the car. no bolts no nothing. so dont think that is how they fit haha. I just picked them all up and set them on to get an idea of what it will look like. I think it will turn out ok. The motor is going slow as we are waiting on some plugs for the AVCS sensors and cam sensors. BIG PROPS TO SEAN!!!!! at ralli tek he is the man for havin a big *** bucket of plugs in the shop
anyway let me know what you guys think and if you think I sould do anything else. I think I am going silver and black (black from the botom of the windows up and also the hood trunk and wing. that way when I tint the windows it will look sick. and I realy want to do it because of the old school SVX. the silver one with the black top was just one of my facoret cars growing up.
