Can't thank Alan Jeffrey at Enginetuner enough for arranging most of the bits and bobs for me, going way above and beyond "normal" customer service, to make sure everything was absolutely spot on. Thank you Alan!
(Although, I'm sure he and his staff were pulling their hair out from all of my nonsence )

Thanks also to Bren at Apex for sourcing some of the parts, and for their fantastic service.

Also a thanks to Frayz for his wingsert, lets hope I can make it work like I have planned in my head :P

Just waiting on getting my car to the builders to have the engine work done, run the engine in, swap turbo + injectors and get remapping! :P

Fantastic kit of parts you have there fella. Wingsert should work a treat with what you have planned. Keep us all updated.

Best of luck

I am, just got to make sure I have some surplus funds needed incase splitting the block has any "surprises" to deal with.

But should start early next month.

Jesse,

When you fitting the wingsert??

DisoDisp

iTrader: (1)

Heh, I'll tackle the fitting round about when the engine gets pulled. Not to worry, I'll take pics and give you feedback regarding how it goes.

Scooby Dan

Interested to see how you get on with the wingsert. I have tha exact same 80mm RCM induction kit on my hawkeye, I fitted a cold air feed from the foglight area using some aluminium ducting fed through the inner wing and the maf sensor hated it which caused the car to keep stalling.
I have since bought an APS 70mm kit which I hope to fit once Ecutek release Racerom but the wingsert might have been a good alternative.

DisoDisp

iTrader: (1)

Without a maf rescale i doubt you can get it to idle properly with the 80mm maf housing.
Which is why the trumpet will be fitted just before the remap.

Scooby Dan

The maf was rescaled by one of the best mappers in the business. The problem was caused by the cold air feed causing too much turbulence as the maf housing is very close to the filter on that particular kit. I removed the ducting and the car has run perfectly ever since.

Huoh, been a bit busy.. forgot about this.

Old gearbox is out, 2005 STi TypeUK box is in, along with R180 rear end, drive shafts and 2004 STi 5x100 PCD hubs: And new rear discs for the R180 handbrake shoe.
Was a bit of a job, but me and two mates (mates mostly :P) were able to pull it off in two days.

Wired up the DCCD-Pro and did the JDM STi 7 cluster swap (now with working ABS light :P)
Heres a quick video.

Relocated the heated seat switches to the centre console, OEM DCCD manual and auto controls in place of these.

Had my exhaust manifold "ceramic coated", HHBK under ceramic and Black Satin topcoat, turned out really well.

Also, test fitting my new intake system:
Its a tight fit, but thanks to the wingsert from frayz, it does work.

Great job mate. Glad the intake fits well. Looks like it's going to be a very potent WRX. Best of luck with it.

You need bigger injectors for e85

DisoDisp

iTrader: (1)

Lies. A friend tested it on 850CC injectors, it was fine to about 450bhp. Up the fuel pressure to 4 bar, and presto 1000CC injectors

No, probably right, but for now its going to be 99RON mapped only.

Speaking of, fuel system built up just now:

After far too long, the car is once again on the road, running it in ATM, so no word on power figures etc. It is however an eager bugger even with next to no boost, and low rpm, will be interesting to see what kind of power it puts down.
Possibly due to the 9.1 CR

Will post some pics of the "actual" car later on, once I have a chance of actually taking some

That said, here are a few of the Engine:

Fuel rails were an absolute nightmare, haven't had a chat with Chris as of yet, but they just would not fit. The standard brackets were way off, and would catch the AVCS solenoid, i.e. new brackets had to be made.

http://www.flickr.com/photos/disodisp/6577632163/http://www.flickr.com/photos/disodisp/6577632163/ by http://www.flickr.com/people/disodisp/, on Flickr

Once that was sorted, they would not stop leaking, crush washers did not help either, so a groove was machined out of the thread for a O-ring after which they don't seem to be leaking any more.

Those of you with a Fuel Lab AFPR, have you noticed its got a slight "lag" to it, i.e. it seems to bleed off pressure slower than the OEM unit, and also builds pressure slightly slower. (Not significantly, but still noticeable on a Wideband)
Also, how well do yours generally maintain fuel pressure after turn off? By design, the ball and spring unit should lose pressure gradually, but is it a question of a day, a few hours, etc?

More to come:
