Keen to get out on the gc8 cruise and meet some of the Perth-wrx crew! I am really happy with it so far- I've had a cam'd vx ss with head work etc, but this is a different kind of fast. Good fun I am 99% sure my engine is fine as the STechnic guys have fully serviced it, tuned it up(& would of noticed and told me if anything was wrong with it) etc but there is a noise, which I am hoping is just the signature horizontally opposed-dak dak but this being my first Subaru i just can't be 100% certain. It's different to the exhaust note, but appears to be in time with the pistons firing(almost like a very subtle knock noise). I'll also take a video tomorrow at idle and give it a bit of a rev so you guys migh be able to tell me of its normal etc |

You'll find the exhaust will quieten down in a couple of weeks when it gets a good lining of carbon, usually sound deeper.
Great going.

Piccy goodness...
STi Instrument cluster Front L/R Rear L with showing off my cool cannon Apologies for shitty iphone-spec images, but you get the idea of what it's looking like at the moment. I'll get some more of engine bay etc as I clean it up and ad some things (strut bracing etc) But basically so far: Full STi Driveline conversion (including ecu) STi Front brake's & wrx rear disc set-up (no abs, saving weight) v6 STi struts & springs STi Dash STi Short Shift kit '09 betty WRX rims Alloy GC8 STi bonnet Cusco front strut brace *all STi bling came form a '97 ver3 v-limited (except struts) REMOVAL OF FOLLOWING: Rank-ass Carbon wrap on boot decals from doors shitty subwoofer & amp setup (that was at least 20kg) Plans for future: STi front lip STi or club spec wing Cusco rear strut brace Cusco H-brace Cusco Brake stopper closed-door respray (incl. colour coding door handles & side skirts) I/C water spray Walboro fuel pump [RX STI] plates? I'm 100% sure I have missed various details, but i'll ad them as I remember them/ think of new things to do. OPINIONS SO FAR? Cheers Josh Last edited by Joshiemitsu; 29-03-2012 at 12:22 PM. |
