i think you would need a old subaru loom for the connectors etc to start with , and that would save you time on the lighting loom (with plugs ), i would minimize a subaru loom for exactly what you want and then add what extra is needed

 

got the shell prepped yesterday and primered up i will be spraying it today and laquering it on sunday ready for rebuilding 8)

 

!
I could have sworn you had a cage in the shell!

Graham

 

i would like 1 graham but the misses would,nt be happy

 

Thanks to david at api for stripping the gearbox down and fitting new seals etc and giving it a good clean . excellent job , picked up the gearbox and delivered it back , and was very cheap

shell is finished and sprayed 8) will post some pics later

 

ready to build up now should get the loom fitted this week and modify the heater matrix to fit .

 

well i got all the sound proofing and loom fitted today which was easy
but the heater matrix and dash are a nightmare , i,m nearly there though
i need to weld some brackets to the strenthening bar to hold the dash in tight , and the dash is far wider than a classic so a bit of trimming has had to be done



i need to make 1 strengthening bar out of 2 the classic and newage

just getting some parts made so should be in for weekend

 

Hi, looking good.

Didnt you chip away at the sound deadening earlier in the project? Howcome you went to that trouble to put some back in?

 

yes i did i never had any intention of putting it back

but i,ve decided comfort and less noise is better than a slighlty lighter quicker car
plus it was always coming out anyway to spray the shell

 

Nice work there, will be good to see it soon..

 

hopeing in 6 weeks time it will be built up apart from the engine bay

does anyone have any measurements of the steering column (classic) from where it bolts onto the dash bar (2 bolts)to the end where the steering bolts on

 

well i,ve got all the parts i need today to fit the dash in . big thanks to andy @ scoobyteqnix for all the parts very very cheap plus some bargain performance bits hopefully should have the dash mounted in tomorrow , but as its mothers day i may have to leave it till next weekend.
hopefull have some pics tomorrow

 

looks ace mate

 

well its beeen a long day but finally the dash is in

and it fits excellent with the newage sti avcs loom 8)
just need to take the dash out again to reweld dash strenthener bar and mount the loom properly , and make a few modifications to the windscreen heater ducks
the boss was moaning about the garage being a bit untidy with all my bits lying around so i decided to to temporarily fit the sti 8 trim and carpet , which fit straight in with no mods

 

good work mate!

 

cheers kris should hopefully be more building going on instead of buying soon as the money is running out
