My RA Build
Thought I'd throw this up here, been a long haul and still have a way to go but its getting there finally!
Had the car for a while not really planning to get too serious with it, was looking more to buy one already modded as I CBF with all the work. Then one day it all changed, decided to do build my own. Heres where it all got serious, bought a JDM 99 import and used that for the swap. Swapping the compleat loom and interior bits I need will make future wiring and parts more compliant. I have no space at either my work or at home to leave everything half done so leased a warehouse off a mate for a few months to get most of the major conversion done. Excuse the Iphone, I never have a decent camera on me. Loom of the 99 on the floor. we managed to do it without cutting a single wire and fortunatley all gromit holes are the same, except for the steering column which we welded the sleeve off the old to the new so it would fit snug. Gutting the 99 All interior bits gone ready to remove sound deadening (Dash crossmember and column from the 99 already there) Dry ice is so much fun. Residue all cleaned up with some petrol. The B4 Heads were also compleaded at the same time, some of the porting work: That was all about 5 months ago, have not had much of a chance to get anything else done since. The car is now back in my warehouse tucked away waiting for the engine to be compleated. once thats done its off to get turbo & cooler piping fabricated, fuel systen finished and computer wired in. then bolt on all the fancy bits. Bit of a spec list so far: Will be keeping the older front bar as I want the 555 WRC look, and to be very unassuming from the outside. 95 GC8 Sti Type RA 99 Sti front end and headlights/taillights 99 Sti Dash conversion 99 Sti complete loom swap All sound deadening removed EJ20G 2L Closed Deck Block Darton Sleeved Cosworth 2.2l full kit (Crank, Rods, Pistons, Pins, Rings) Cosworth Main and Big end Bearings Fully balanced & blueprinted B4 Twin Turbo Heads, modified to suit WRX Major porting JUN Cams 272 Deg 10mm Lift JUN Valve Springs JUN Titanium Retainers JUN Adj Cam Gears Sti Metal Head Gaskets ARP Head Stud Kit ARP Main Stud Kit Cosworth Timing Belt Guide Moroso Alloy Baffled Sump with oil pickup Cosworth 12mm High flow/ High volume Oil Pump Greddy TD06 20G Trust 4 bolt Ext Waste gate with screamer pipe Greddy dump pipe & adaptor pipe to the factory up pipe Syms Racing Equal Length Headers and up-pipe, Ceramic coated TSL Motorsport Charge Cooler kit (Water to Air & Air to Air) X-Force 3" Turbo Back Exhaust with catless pipe PWR 40mm Alloy Radiator Full Samco Silicone Hose Kit (Black) Grimmspeed Air Oil Separator GFB Lightweight Pulley Kit Hyperflow Catch Can GD Sti Coilpacks (Coil over spark conversion) GD Clutch reservoir (offset) Power Enterprise 850cc Injectors Cusco Racing Engine Mounts Motec M4 Pro Fully Enabled with Advanced Functions Logging Wideband Lambda Full Motec Loom (not used) Motec Serial Cable and Serial to USB Converter Motec to Subaru Loom adaptor Grimmspeed 3 Post BCS PAR Dog Box 3.9 Ratio 1-4 Dog 5th Synchro Interlocks Billet Shift Forks and Selectors Cusco Racing Gearbox Mount Grumbly Racing Billet Alloy Pitch Stopper Cusco/Excedy Twin Plate Clutch Sti Plated Rear 2 Way R180 LSD & Shafts Endless 6 Pots Front Endless Pads Front Endless Braided Lines Endless 2 peice Slotted Rotors with alloy hats Late model WRX 2 Pot Rears Slotted rears to suit R180 Cusco Master Cylinder Brace Cusco Zero 2R Coilovers Cusco Pillow Ball Adjustable Top Hats F & R Whiteline H Brace Whiteline Adjustable Roll Centre Kit Whiteline Anti Lift Kit Whiteline Adjustable 22mm Front Sway Bar Whiteline Adjustable 24mm Rear Sway Bar Whiteline Front & Rear Strut Braces Whiteline Rear Sub Frame Lock Whiteline H/D Rear Swaybar Mount Whiteline Front Spherical Swaybar Links Whiteline H/D Rear Alloy C Links.
