Hello. New here,so here goos.
Back in 2007 started to put the parts and chassie together. I have 3 chassis to work from,2 from Texas and one from Ca. The Texas car seems to be better/less rust but it was hit in the driver front and repaired. Will look into that when I get is up on Rotisserie. Will start building the Rotisserie next. She will be powered by a JDM Sti using a adapter to the 914 transaxle. Didn't want to go to the Subaru,to much work. When I get it up on the Rotisserie is this a good time to have blasted clean/paint free? Here are some photos . Any input is welcome! Randy (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i916.photobucket.com-8123-1352415654.1.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i916.photobucket.com-8123-1352415654.2.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i916.photobucket.com-8123-1352415654.3.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i916.photobucket.com-8123-1352415654.4.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i916.photobucket.com-8123-1352415655.5.jpg) |

I'm a driver or at least I think I am ? LOL Been doing the Rally-X thing to start. Then we will see. Over built the car because that is what I do. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)
This info is great, keep it coming. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) Most of the motors (EZ) don't seem to have harness's and ECU's so I was thinking Mega S ? Also do the JDM EZ have more power like some of the other JDM stuff ? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) |

Felt just like a stock Subaru (no jittering or weird quirks). If you search on the message boards over there you can find his comments. Just search for EZ30. If you have experience with it you can do the DIYPNP and save some cash. The only thing I know about JDM engines is related to the EG33. It's not the engine, it's mostly the ECU. They are much simpler. More of a static map, no altitude correction, etc. There are also fewer controls. No EGR system, fewer solenoids and sensors to break, etc. Sometimes the rev limiter is higher. You can do whatever map you want with megasquirt and you will eliminate the extras I mentioned. |
