Lock, Stock and four smoking tyres
Hi,
My car is a JDM classic, imported from the UK to Bulgaria in around 2009, bought by me in 2010, driven 250 miles before taken in for a rebuild in February 2012.
The goal of my project
is to build something like the Prodriverules car - best car I possibly can.
I have set my goal to complete the build in March 2014 and
so far I have built a:
-Bored forged piston and rods 2.1 bottom end (93mm pistons).
-Ported and polished heads.
-Athena 1.1mm head gasket
I also sourced the following parts:
- custom top feed fuel rails
- 630cc Injectors
-Cosworth oil pump
-Brembo 18Z 6 piston front brake calipers of a Cayenne
-Brembo E38 Brembo 4 piston calipers for the rear.
-Six speed conversion kit (box, prop, cradle, shifter, fork, diff, rear driveshafts, non DCCD from an early bug) from Scott@ scoobyspares (Cheers mate!!!)
With the most expensive part out of the way it is time to get the real cool stuff fabricated and the custom work to begin.
Did the following work:
-Adjusted my front bumper to fit a FMIC
- Got a full respray in Mica blue from the current Subaru color range.
I need your help in several regards:
- choosing a turbo (I was thinking of going twin scroll for faster spool, equal length collector and straight pipe), I prefer a turbo with an internal waste gate and am aiming for about 430 crank HP and close to that torque.
- Choosing an ECU (FC Commander is my current choice as I will attempt to destroy, pardon me, tune the car myself and it has a base map to start with.
- and general opinions. Please let me know what you would suggest and if you see something wrong please go ahead.

Aaaand some more photos. The muddy H6 you see is my daily driver. I love this car as much as, if not even more then I love my Impreza. The colour of the Impreza is in a ****ty Iphone, no HDR photo and the car is dirty.
UPG, if you are asking, is a name of a shop here, they sold me the parts you see with a big discount, so I plug them in on photos out of courtesy, I hope no one minds.

AAAnd appendix 1 is my future Brake setup.
1 more question, I would really like to have a hydraulic handbrake (rally style)
but I read a lot of bad choo-choo might happen to the center diff.
Has any one tried it with a positive outcome, any solutions apart from buying a 10000 gbp rally diff?
