2.5 uk jdm
Hi can you get jdm 2.5s on later models and is it possible to get the uk models pushing the same bhp as jdms with a simple remap.
|
i had a map done on my 06 wrx - ok is first of the 2.5's - decat, sti intercooler, k&n panel filter and she is somewhere around the 285 mark - rapid spool up from the td04 makes it a cracking quick road car. Duncan from Race Dynamix is the man for the job...

Jdm cars are 2.0 only mate, the 2.5 is is for the uk market. The newage 2.5 engine has been prone to several problems with failures and would recommend you read up on this first.

a 2.5 litre Sti with decat, panel filter, etc (minimal mods) will get up around 350bhp following a re map

All JDM Impreza's from 2003 model year are 2ltr, all JDM STI's from that year onwards are 2ltr twin scroll units, no 2.5 JDM Impreza's unless its been done aftermarket (as per the Type 25 Litchfield cars).

Mate as said a JDM is only available as a 2.0ltr
The UK car from start to 2005 was a 2.0ltr and from the 2006 model onwards only came as a 2.5ltr The only way to get a JDM with a 2.5ltr is to fit one yourself or buy A litchfield TYPE 25 from 2003 - to current hatch model (I think) if not till the hawkeye, as litchfiled took the JDM model or Spec C and with the sucsess of the Type 20 designed the same thing but fitted a 2.5ltr lump and called it a TYPE25 |
The uk cars are well down in power tho to the jdms will a remap sort this out or is the alot to it. I know the gear boxed are different for starts.
|
I hate to contradict some of the other posters on here but the latest JDM A Line model Impreza's do have the 2.5 litre engine fitted. :lol1:

No I had decided not to remember that one as its an auto :lol1:

If the OP is thinking that a mildly modded UK STi will be just as good as a JDM, think again :smug: Get a JDM one & be done with it.

Briefly. JDM has over UK 0.5L less engine capacity large port heads better cams 8000 rpm redline shorter gear ratios twinscroll turbo drive by cable rear wiper privacy glass 235 section tyres (MY05 >) All of which makes it the better car in most situation. |
What Suberman said. Get a JDM you wont regret it.

only one problem there really hard to find, looked all over the trader ect and cant find any. They are all uk 2.5s or uk spec.
|
^^ Indeed! Few years ago we were tripping over the fecking things ;)
TX. Edit - quite a few here! http://pistonheads.co.uk/sales/list....&Submit=Search |
So are PCM & Litchfield the only dealers that specialise in them?

Is the suspension different from UK STi's? What different engine components result in the fact that UK ST's have occasional head gasket failures whereas JDM's don't?

I believe the springs are different Andy. I can't confirm this though.:wonder: Are the head gaskets that much weaker than the JDMs?:wonder::lol1: I don't know much about the head gasket issues, i've always thought only the pistons are the problem area.
