Suby crew: RS swap arrived! WOOT!
-
Oh ok ic.
I didn't know if jason had plans for alot more than stock HP, stock ecu makes sense then.
But if he was going for a decent amount of power with aftermarket stuff a standalone would be a much better choice IMO, easier to wire, new harness, lots of potential, at under 1500
and no stinky MAF.... lol if it has one
-
The rewiring is done. All that remains is splicing in 13 USDM ECU wires to the JDM ECU plugs, and running 2 power wires from the JDM harness to the USDM main relay. Now it is time to accumulate some parts (clutch, downpipe, etc...) I ordered up some DEFI's today and am hoping to have this thing on the road soon.
Zac,
As stated above, the EJ20g is a stock JDM motor. Although it has more power than USDM WRX's, putting the engine in the car is really no different than what it came from the factory with in JDMland. The PowerFC is really the only tuning option, with the exception of Eprom chips. I plan to make the PowerFC a purchase sometime in the future, however I have many things I need to get before I really start pushing power (suspension is top of the list next...as the RS suspension now is shot...) I will post more information when the motor is going in, and hopefully a few shots with exhaust coming out the tailpipe. :icon_cheers:

Those wheels are hot. IF they dont work well for the car, I will take em off your hands.haha....if they don't work, I plan to make them work!
I like to change up wheels yearly tho, so if you are still interested end of the year, we can talk! -
Those rotas are gonna blow up on you for getting knock off wheels....
Just kidding, things look great and that should be a fun car.

Got some tires for the Rota's along with some Rays lug nuts, so I will do some fender rolling tonight (thanks Colin).
Also go in some uber rare Prodrive floor mats for the GC chassis...Look pimp
NRG Grounding kits are back in stock, and I have one set aside for the RS
