Newage STI engine into a newage WRX?
I have a 2002 wrx needing an engine
I Have sourced and bought a complete sti engine out of a bugeye STI! I have a newage sti ecu in the process of getting a wiring loom from ECU to engine what im looking to know is, who has done the same thing as me before and what all else will i def need from their expperience? all help appreciated! Thanks |
Did you get the inlet manifold? and did you get the keys and the little black box with the ecu?
|
It's not an JDM engine with 30k on the clock is it? :D
|
:lol1:
|
No didnt get the keys r the black,box which is the imobliser I'm guessing? Will i def need the keys,ignition barrel and imobliser then?
and no its not a water damaged engine!lol |
Speak with Tim @ jt innovations as he can provide a plug and play loom
|
May also need to swap the loom over. Was reading a thread the other day where someone had a few running issues that were only resolved with a loom swap to an STI loom.
LOL, Shreksta got there before me! :) |
Anyone done this swop first hand.
is he on here at all to get talking with him about the loom or haveypu a number for him? |

If it's a complete engine does it include the avcs heads? As you'll need to have the loom to control these too.
Using an sti ecu. If you can get one with keys etc means your better going to an sti inlet to loose the tumblers in the wrx inlet manifold as these are ecu controlled. Are you doing it yourself or having a garage do it for you? |
yes full sti engine with inlet, just minus the Turbo thats it!
Doing all the work myself |
Yes did it about 4/5 years ago, shouldnt need an engine loom if its just an engine swap...Your loom will be fine, Only difference being the AVCS heads but as its a full engine including inlet manifold you utilise the wires that control the TGV`s on the bug loom and reposition them at the ECU end for the sti ecu to pick up...From memory there was an additional 4 wires added...Or like stated speak to Tim....Your sti ECU will be fine for recoding to the immobiliser/keys...Andrew carr has done all of the above many times ;)
|
yes just engine swop
will it need to go to subaru for recoding in the new ECU with the keys and immobliser? is Tim or Andrew carr on the site have you a username for them? |
If you want to use the avcs heads you will need the engine loom to plug in the extra avcs cam sensors.
When I did mine I fitted the sti engine and the sti engine loom and took it to Andrew Carr. He fitted me an sti ecu and done a few wiring modifications to get the avcs working |

newage STi engine into WRX is quite common. Immobiliser can be recoded as I understand it, and the only wiring missing is AVCS. Rewire it yourself re-deploying the TGV wires, or we can do you an AVCS loom specifically for this purpose :) |
i believe a mapper can re-code the keys cant they?
