Default 6 speed finally finished and final map done

Well finally had the 6 speed conversion finished and the SC42 mapped to its full potential.


Mapped to 1.5bar, and I gotta say it is brutal. The pick up on the gear changes is unreal.
Its good to be able to drive it without fear of stripping the box lol.


Huge thanks to Rich at East Kent Subaru for their hard work, top job as always.


Respray next, then suspension then it'll be finished

Remember seeing this car few weeks ago! Gald it's gone well, enjoy it!

As for East Kent Subaru, are they as good as your making out? Wanting an engine swap as I need more power, bigger turbo, FMIC, ect... Do they do all that too?

Thought the sc42 would be able to run more than 1.5bar or is there another limiting factor?

I'm sure there's more to come but for now I'm happy how it is. I'll probably have a map tweak done on the rollers in a few months to see what its running 😊

Tempting but trouble is the car spends a lot of time in storage, are there any dangers of having meth left in the tank for prolonged periods?

On the whole no but I would not want to risk it personally, as I always err on the side of caution

Well done Alex, the car sounds great!

Which 6 speed did you go for? (I'm being curious as you know that's where I'm heading!)

Also did you measure the power output and did you get a dyno graph?

Cheers mate 😊 yer I got a box from a jdm bug eye which had been rebuilt from scoobyclinic so the syncros are all good.
It was mapped on the road so no idea what its running but it is bloody quick now. I'll probably get a map tweak on the dyno in a few months and see what it's running 😃

Also it is not about how much bar the turbo runs.
If it need less bar to make the power then that is good in a way.

A higher compression engine needs less bar of boost to hit x power
A lower compression engine needs more bar of boost to hit x power

....Same result

I personally prefer the former option.

Probably the Silverline Subaru, Perhaps Andy Banhams very quick track spec C on slicks and my MB developments/Surrey Subaru Specialists/silverline sponsored impreza will all be down at Lydden Hill next Saturday morning if you are about.

I guess Rich might turn up in his Forrester, he did last time. He had a few problems but might have ironed them out.


Also Banny when I surface at Mattys in a couple of months I will let you know

All depends if you want JDM gear ratios or UK/euro spec gear ratios
And also what diff you are matching it to ...an existing R160 or going the whole hog and going R180 and replacing shafts ect etc

Contact Matty...he usually has a six speed or two knocking about.
Cheers

Cheers Steve, I appreciate the advice!

I prefer closer ratios even if it does mean changing gears a lot!

I wouldn't know tbh, before the 6 speed it was under mapped due to the weak 752 and we estimated that at about 360/370. Now it feels way faster than that, more like 420 but its difficult to say

I want 400 but with the urgency of a VF34, was just thinking 42 might be a bit laggy.

I don't have avcs and don't notice much lag. The 42 is well suited to the 2.0ltr especially if you have acvs. The spool up is pretty brutal 😊
