And we are learn from garage and our mapper we are running low compression on one pistons(he suspect ringland...),
And we are decide,we are going for 2.1 stroker with AVCS,engine will be build Slowboy Racing(Neil know our car from beginning and have good(excellent) reputation as engine builder from some forums 22b,SIDC,Type R-A.co.uk,SN)

My brother is now at Lebanon,he is flying for BMI,tomorrow coming home and tomorrow we are going to Neil
Again thanks Hugh,i forgot your name,sorry




Jura

thats a wicked bug auto u have there jura,i wouldnt mine having ago with that paddle shift set up,did the gearbox need any mods with all that power. jdm got 200 bhp out of my hawkeye sport,which is wot i want from mine but its finding some1 over here that can do mine.:ok:

Hi matey its straight forward fitting Works Bell Paddle Shifter,if you have JDM autobox is easier to do.I have at home original Sport Shift Steering wheel....
Mine has do Neil@Slowboy Racing,just ask him about this....



Jura

thanks jura11,i will see wot he can do,i would be well happy if he could get me 200 bhp,i will get a turbo 4 next car.still toying with getting a evo 7 gt-a ,they have 276 bhp standerd with a couple of mods 350 bhp which would do me :mrgreen::ok:

My brother toying with EVO as next project car,me too....
But scooby is still mine favorite car due nicest sound of flat flour....
You will see,what you can do.....:ok:




Jura

Hi Jura

That Wagon looks very smart indeed.Looking forward to more news!!

Keith
:SMBLU:

Makes me want to get another wagon :-o

Hi Jura it was good to catch up with you and your brother today.

SC460 ? :worthy:

Thanks guys new pics will be available and uploaded maybe next week or after build,this depends if Neil will send some picture...
Our spec is now changing from MD we are going for SC46,we are hoping for at least 450bhp...
ECU will be for this time OE(with ALS via Group N Rom and Mafless feature as well),if money allow at summer will be fitted Syvecs.
And we are go for Cosworth Baffled Sump(Dry sup setup is little bit expensive) and some other mods,which are still under going thinking,as i said we will see...

Hugh good to see you again,hope you will get your RA on track soon.Yes,we are going for SC46.........



Jura

Granby i've seen/read your "Stealth" project nice reading and very interesting at once...

http://i877.photobucket.com/albums/a...8/DSCI0224.jpg



Jura

are you not having a syvecs ?

At moment no,i go at moment with OE ECU with bigger MAF tube(as MAF have limits)and switchable maps with Group N Rom(which allow run ALS,Speed Density and other functions)
Syvecs will be fitted maybe at May/June if money allow...








Jura

just if you fitted a syvecs no point in the wide band meter .
just need a sensor to ecu .
job done, one less worry gauge to look at too!

Great point,again too fast we are thinking and we are buying what we don't need, typically.
Thanks for that..




Jura

If it was me i'd find the money for the syvec's ,it'll save you mapping twice and give a lot better results

Yes money we have prepared for SYVECS,but some unexpected problems occurred and we must wait until May/June.
Syvecs is too big and too much for our budget at moment,maybe at May/June.
Syvecs will give me better results and will give me safety feature which i want Knock Correction,due this i don't want Simtek at moment,because this feature is missing.
Really good point,but at moment its not possible.

Little bit update,probably we are going for standard look with standard STi bonnet with standard headlights...



Jura

I can't believe I haven't spotted this thread before! :oops:

Thats a stunning wagon matey! Very nice indeed :ok:

I hear what your saying with the bonnet Jura but personally I like the lights, makes it look mean as hell :ok:
Glad it's all coming along nicley

looks really good fella comming on nicely

Thanks you for kind comment:ok:




Jura

http://www.jdltuning.com/media/catal...w/r/wrx_wt.jpg

Engine built has been slowing down on side of Machine shop which where has been engine sent for machine work and skimming and almost 3 weeks took get engine back,hopefully car will be ready in next two weeks.

Thanks guys for kind comments:doubleup:




Jura

Only just noticed it's an auto gearbox...will this cope with the new power?

Yep its auto gearbox,probably will cope,but on how long we don't know.Few guy on Nasioc run several months with 500whp on standard 4EAT and we are hopping in this too..
In next month we are going to RedVictor1 which are professionals in building and rebuilding auto boxes and hopefully will make our gearbox stronger which will cope with some addons and 600bhp.
If will be expensive to built only way will be 6speed and paddle shifter from Kaps.


Jura
