Oh, is it plug n play on my car? Might actually do that, if the TGV connectors are the same.
Gonna look into it tonight and get back to you. |
After some difficult thought I think I'm probably going to sell the sti. A used GT350 or cayman s is looking real good right now.
Still have yet to make a post but if anyone knows anybody who's interested in a 2005 sti, I am selling. |
as nice as your sti is, a gt350 or cayman is just a whole 'nuther animal. good luck dude
|
It's only been a couple weeks but I've had pretty limited interest in the car. I have a feeling this is gonna take a long time to sell.
|
Life comes at you quick.
Sold the STI last month, just happened to find the exact GT350 I was looking for the very next day. I haven't been subaruless since 2012. Here is to hoping the blown up voodoo meme doesn't rear its ugly face in my direction. Fun stuff. |
Any pointers for a OEM-ish replacement turbo for a 2006 OBXT? Pretty sure my turbine fucked off and is now hanging out in the cat. Was running fine, then clank, bang, tingtingtingting and lots of smoke. About to rip everything apart, I fucking hate hate working on subarus...
I had checked and cleaned all but the impossible driver's side banjo filter. Vag-com and lots of cussing at drivers and romraider and I'm actually in the ECU, still 100% OEM tune, was an older guy's car so that makes sense. I had logged a bunch of stuff before all this went down and it looked like everything was doing right. I bought it with a random miss on #4, cylinder roughness was some high number, replaced the injectors and that went away and then the turbo blew. Brand new clutch, 70K miles and fully loaded. Would be nice to fix this thing for cheep! https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...817fecea07.jpg |

I just picked up an 08 wrx for a daily. 227,000 miles, and still.....going.....strong. original engine never opened. Compression good too. Just proves that if driven responsibly and maintained, these car's actually last :)
|
I'm really curious to see how long that engine lasts lol
|
Probably a long time. Compression is great and I can't find a single issue
|
I just sold a friend's '02 bugeye wagon for him with original everything except for radiator, clutch, and shocks (i.e. even the head gasket was from the factory!). Left my driveway at just over 283,000 mi.
He also learned to drive on it in the middle of nowhere with a ton of dirt roads and snow (although it received regular maintenance). Mechanical empathy is certainly real, but so is the process control lottery. In any case congrats on the sweet new daily. |
Subaru thread? We have one of those?
The daily: https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...50d24adb3c.jpg https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...7cc6813576.jpg '12 WRX, Cobb stage 1 tune, Konig Hypergrams, Nameless Performance axleback, Mishimoto CAI, Kartboy short throw, blah blah blah. Nothing wild. Since I bought my Miata, I've moved from planning Subaru mods to don't blow up the daily. Still love it as a daily, don't have any delusions of making it super fast. |
