I'm going with a 2.5 block w/ 2.2 heads, n/a (like JRust), borla replica headers, delta reground cams, and fwd trans from 93 impreza (push clutch). I have 390cc injectors, STi head gaskets. Intake, heads, ECU, harness and from the same 2.2 car. (supposed to take the compression to 11:2:1)
I've read through countless build threads and have put together a the following list that I know is incomplete...Not all of what I have here is of necessity, but if I'm missing something important please add it because more than likely i'll left it off out of ignorance. Any help with the list is appriciated. [ ] radiator w/ rubber mounts & shroud [ ] fan(s) (The fan relay wired directly to the battery? what fuse? toggle switch? wired into harness?) [ ] vented hood [ ] overflow tank [ ] 25 feet 1.25 inch I.D. coolant hose -- is routing under car better than through cabin, or longs? [ ] fiberworks IMSA front bumper [ ] 240SX/200SX Twin LED Halo Conversion Headlight (Mike Bellis special) [ ] H7 Low H7 High 2 Set Combo 6000K White Xenon HID Kit w/ digital ballast [ ] 911 front suspension and brakes (will 911 steering rack bolt in as is) [ ] 911 rear brakes and ebrakes (cable conversion kit from CFR tangerine racing) [ ] 5 lug wheel of choice (mine happens to be phonedails 15x6's and 15x7's) [ ] axles resplined to fit subaru www.dutchmanaxles.com [ ] pedal assembly? will stock pedals and cables work w/ push type trans [ ] will stock 914 fuel pump work, suby or other? [ ] 914 ss lines through tunnel to suby fuel lines or aftermarket fuel lines under body [ ] engine trans craddle [ ] cable shifter ('80 MR2) [ ] shifter linkage [ ] guages (looking at speedhunt but will stock work?) [ ] ehaust headers (i'm using bola replicas) [ ] cat back for o2 plug [ ] muffler (i'm 2.5" inlet/3.5" outlet high flow twin loop ebay -- no clue how to mount it yet) [ ] stock ECU wiring (I'm completely clueless here and have a ton to learn) -- 2 o2 plugs -- 3 for engine connection -- fuel pump relay -- main relay -- ignitor -- obd connector -- purge and pressure switching solinoids ( 2 plugs ) -- connection to relay board loose wires from battery : -- power -- ground -- speed sensor -- temp sensor if you go stock -- then you need wires from the alt connections to the alternator are as follows: 1. Large gauge white wires on ring connector (to fusible link) 2. Round black plug with three wires: a. White wire (to fusible link) b. Yellow wire (to fuse #16) c. Black/red (or B/W) wire (to charge indicator on dash -- exciter current lamp on the 914 dash light) [ ] starter -- with high compression will I need a hi torque push style? http://www.familycar.com/store/index.php?N...No=0&Npp=10 for ignition system? I have no elfing clue what guage steel for rust repairs? what size steel tubing for welding in bracing? best claps for welding? hardware for putting together radiator shroud? & and sheet metal vs fiberglass, vs aluminum? best brake paint, rust prevention, and body filler? what have I missed? I did find wiring diagrams for 93-96 imprezas -- should help some -- if you need it pm me and I'll e-mail it to you. thanks, chuck |
