I hope you are appreciating the effort as i have had to find then download all the pictures from photobucket back to my hard drive of my computer.Kaosone?.SJ.
Is it more effort than going outside with your phone & snapping away?
Been happily married for over 16 years now...She knows her way around a car i can tell you that for nothing...
...Right where were we...ah yes my wife's install of my CAE shifter...After she removed the gear linkage she installed the new linkage set up and base for the shifter...
PART 3 coming up latter on,i have had enough of copy and paste this morning .SJ.
Awesome work SJ & Mrs SJ, I asked the mrs to go out and install my CAE, showed her this thread, she used some choice words and walked out of the room, haven’t seen her since 😂
Great thread.
what I really like about your car is it looks so oem from the outside.
What a sleeper should be.
Thanks mate,That was my plan from the start!...I never really was into wide body kits & massive wing spoilers etc.. i love the o.e.look&shape of the Blobeye Impreza.SJ.

Yeah i guess I'm really lucky there as my wife's a real life Fast&Furious Letty.SJ.
What's the end goal with this car?
or is it like most projects,never ending.
Ive got the engine power where i am happy with it now,i only add parts now that can enhance my driving experience and just the usual regular servicing/maintenance.SJ.
Picked this up from a mate of mine that ordered a few sets for his Imprezas...
i still had to pay the full price mind minus the postage,but i will now see if their is any practical positives to the adding of this mod first hand,or if its just pure hype!...Looking at the parts that you get as part of the kit in all honesty i really feel like i have been robbed!,but as long as it achieves what it claims too everything will be cool...I will be getting it fitted at my next fluid change.SJ.
It will be interesting to see what you find SJ, I looked into it but decided against it for now, my water temp stays consistently around 85-90 even with sustained periods on track so it may be something that has more of an effect on a 2.5 block.
I may be showing my ignorance but its a return to sump ?
Looks like a revision to the cooling system to aid the cooling of the 4th cylinder (passenger rear) which is renowned for running hot & self destructing on the 2.5L's, however the kit can also be fitted to the 2.0L's.

It won't make a noticeable difference water temp is only taken from one point in the engine. You'd need to be monitoring the 4th cylinder exhaust gas temps to tell any difference - It's a peace of mind / running out of things to buy thing

I have never really had any problems with my temps Iain,but i just want to personally see if the mod makes any difference to them...as i also know my max temps under track day/high boost on my water and oil gauges,would be perfect if they turned out to be lower more consistent after the fitting of it....SJ.

It's a mod for equalising the temps across all cylinders including the 4th which according to the science on the Subaru engine layout gets less efficient cooling.SJ.

As I say will be interesting to see what you find. my water and oil temps are fine but my egt’s can creep up after a sustained period at high power/boost

Its funny that you say that as my egt’s can Head north under sustained boost,so i am seriously contemplating water injection now to counter that!....SJ.

I do think that running north of 600bhp has something to do with it though!
