You basically use the engine section of the harness and tie it in to the 914 chassis harness, but it's not QUITE as simple as that. I think mine started at 30 lbs and was just a few lbs when done. Still discovering little things. My VSS was not hooked up correctly as Mark helped me confirm recently.
Here's what the new harness sort of looks like: Smallcar harness info The original one barely fits in a laundry basket. George (ThePaintedMan) is digging into his now (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) ! Sounds like we're gonna have quite a few EG33 cars soon. Coldwater is still around, Ian is just busy but I heard he is still shipping stuff. The coldwater cradle puts the EG33 engine pretty close to the front firewall, almost touching. This is ONLY the case with the EG33 since it is the largest Subaru engine physically. All others fit great. It also requires the use of the stock liquid-filled ($$$) motor mounts (EG33 only as well), which are an issue with how close they are to the headers (heat). Don't get me wrong, it's a very good cradle but I'd use something else for the EG. For ANY OTHER ENGINE it's the go-to. Watch 914forme, mepstein, mgp4591, ThePaintedMan, etc, etc, threads to see what they do. |
