Hey,

Names Gary from Timaru New Zealand, i am an ex auto electrician and current Computer Network admin. I own a 95 BG Legacy and a 2001 BH5 Legacy, both have the single turbo conversion done.
Have owned a few STI's, WRX's and am an old school rotor head, have had about 6 rotarys in my day (5 RX2's and an RX4).
I frequent the Subaru forums in NZ, namely clubsub.org.nz.

Rescently finished a comprehensive document on the wiring required when a converting BH5 Legacy rev A, B or C (not D) to a single turbo conistent with a v5/6 (my99, my00) WRX. Will post up details in the appropriate thread.

Cheers!

Here are my steeds grazing in the back yard:

Beautiful cars sir... This makes me feel so robbed over here in the states that it makes me want to find a career overseas.

Welcome Gary!

Love Timaru, plenty of fun roads around there. My family lived in Motueka, but we eventually migrated north to Wellington, then Auckland. Now I'm WAAAAAY north in the USA.
