hotness.

you know the rules, fix your title please.

[Reason]

I think I have that trim, pm me

[deadlydave]

omg, I love that bumper. What a lucky bastard. :lol:

[subba]

Updated, Took some more pics.

[dropdfocus]

I think I'm in love with that bumper! The wagon looks awesome Subba.

[subba]

Thanks Man :grin:

[ryu_haneda]

Once again... NIIIIIIICE wagon!

Yeah, and I'm with everybody else on this, great looking front bumper (the extra lights really look nice on it as well).

[subba]

thanks again :grin:

Bump for new rims :roll:


Lowering Springs will be on beginning of next month and new paintjob in September.

not diggin the wheel style but LOVE the foglights and the rest of the car

[subba]

I like my wheels, i just need to get a hold of a set of springs, even ebay is running out of BG/BK wagon spring, hopefully someone will correct me on that.
Well springs are there but the sellers dont ship worldwide. :-(

but TINT!!!
Springs needed bad.

Should i or leave it white?

[dropdfocus]

Leave it white, but make it pearl white...

[rwm5]

Your car is amazing just how it is. But it's your car, and the blue is freakin' sweet! :grin:

[suba-rude]

i like it either way but where did you get your window visors?

[Reason]

That's a nice blue

[subba]

i like it either way but where did you get your window visors?

Everything u see their except the rims i got with the car.

ever since i got the car i wanted to get it sprayed blue but i am being convinced to leave it white but if i do i am gonna do the bumper with the black strip :neutral:

[subba]

Changed the exhaust :-p

Yeah! Very well done!!! Looks almost like it was a magazine scan in.

[ryu_haneda]

Yeah! Very well done!!! Looks almost like it was a magazine scan in.

I'm trying to get there... I have a whole bunch of magazines at home so I'll be doing some more research on the art. Hopefully soon, these things will start looking really good.

Best time was :p
ET:11.06
RT:.995 :(
60 ft.: 2.563
MPH:63.4

slow as hell but not bad for a stock automatic legacy with a sound system and a muffler silencer :grin:

[subba]

Woooop She is going to be for sale in a few months :-)

I just invested 1200 into the sound system :( but i will give you guys a update of what i dont so far before i part it out. (Partout on Audio/video Equipment)

Sad to say i am getting another BG :(

This one wont be having no big sound system :twisted:


PS: The Bumper Stays with me! Minus the round fogs.

[deadlydave]

Sorry to hear. Can't wait to see pics of a new car...Turbo?

[subba]

Hopefully it wont sell before tomorrow lol i have very bad luck.

1996 Subaru Legacy GT-B (Silver)
5spd TwinScroll So no i can get a lil hand on knowledge of what can be done to the motor.

I was trying to get a B4 but no luck finding a 5spd and i dont realy want a BE.

I was thinking of getting this, but i dont like the price and mileage plus i am not a BD person so it made the decison easier lol

When the next car comes, everything is going to be stock, down to the trim where the extinguisher is.

Bumper and HiD getting transfered.

I was going to wait till i get my suspension then i give a update.

[2.5GT]

nice! and are those 6k HIDs? how does the light overlap to the high beam side?

[Huffer]

I would never have mounted the extinguisher up by the windshield. Under the passenger seat right by the slider mechanism is better. Proper rails to mount to.

[subba]

nice! and are those 6k HIDs? how does the light overlap to the high beam side?
They are 5800K, The HID's are brighter than he high beams. They HID wont cover much vertically, thats where the high beams come in.


Huffer: it is mounted on the panel but the 5 screws are longer than what came wit the kit because i have a metal late behind the trim, I had to trim down the screw tips though. So its not plastic holding it up.

I wanted it to be in arms reach just in case i messed up on my wiring lol :lol:

[2.5GT]

wait..so you have HID for the projectors and the high beams on at the same time? damn...thats gotta be bright! :eek:

I thought the HID was for the projectors only? how you get the highs to come on with the low?

[subba]

I think maybe the USDM to JDM projector conversion wont allow you have both on at once but all JDM legacies with factory installed projectors work that way.

[2.5GT]

hm...might be :neutral:

i want to run HIDs again, but with the projectors this time..58k is more blueish..same as my 6k. but im learning down below 58k. more white light than color..

[subba]

Megan Racing Coilovers!!

I think i am going to raise the back about a 1/2 inch more.

Thanks guys :D

I want to get some pics in with my friends and their cars before i let this go.


EDIT:I wonder if sharky nrk still disaproves on my rim choice :smile:

That thing is slammed, looks good though.

I love the slammed look! Looks great.

Why are you selling it? Whats to replace it?

I'm Getting a 96 GT-B (TT), I am sick of driving automatic :-?

I was gonna swap out parts from this car to the next one but this one is going to be in good hands :grin:

[Huffer]

You should really avoid the twin turbo models.

or at least get the SYMS EL headers to make them twin parallel instead of series. ;)

Those wheels need to be painted.

I dont think JDM BG/BD's came single turbo :-/

I will try and track down those headers, or you have any idea where i could get them from?

I was going to paint it gun metal but my friend who will be buying the car off me rather it this way, i didnt mind becuse its more cash to put in wagon #3 :grin:

EDIT:
If i did convert to parallel would i have problems doing that with a VF33(Primary) & VF32(Secondary). I think thats what the stock turbos are..

Here's the SYMS equal length headers:
http://images.trademe.co.nz/photoserver/52/57001452_full.jpg


the main outlet from engine is 38mm, up pipe joint to turbine is 43mm

the syms extractor will convert your sequential twin turbo to parallel twin turbo
it is suitable for all twin turbo legacy (BG/BD/BE/BH) and for all kind of TT engine (EJ20H/EJ20R/EJ206/EJ208)

for more details (japanese official website) www.syms.jp (http://www.syms.jp)

http://www.syms.jp/products/legacy/bd/ex.html (BD/BG)

http://www.syms.jp/products/legacy/bea/ex.html (BE/BH)

same parts number Y080044011 for BG/BD/BE/BH All Legacy TT

[subba]

Just 2 more questions,
could i run the parallel with the 2 different size turbos?
how would the ECU Adapt?

I want to keep the TT setup until we learn enough about it.

Not much people use the sequential setup, i might go parallel & i think awdterror is doing a parallel also.

I wont be converting for a while unfortunately, but is it possible to put a boost controller just on the secondary turbo? i cant for the life of me remember where i read that the ECU overrides any configuration to the primary turbo & SAFC.

One more question, not TT related, but which is better TMIC or FMIC?

Hmm interesting questions. IIRC the two turbos aren't the same on the stock configuration to begin with but that's for sequential. I think using the same turbo for each cylinder bank is only logical since any particular turbo has its own distinct boost, spool up, and other characteristics. You can probably use a smaller turbo than stock though, since each one is only working on half the cylinders.

I think I read the same article as you (some australian magazine scan and how much trouble people are having tuning the TT legacy)... you'll probably need to look for the electronic boost controller that hooks up to your ECU - replace that with an MBC, like what some WRX owners have done to alleviate surging/boost leak problems. The thing you'll have to address is the fuel map after that, since the ECU still has control for that. But running parallel would almost certainly need a standalone I think; unless you can stop the ECU from thinking a sequential turbo is still connected to it, rather than a parallel.

FMIC or TMIC...FMIC is better from a performance standpoint, and if you run the right sized turbo for the power youre making, and have the right piping setup, you'll minimize the pressure drop (that some people interpret as "lag"). Good systems have like less than .5psi pressure drops even with the assinine piping you have to use for a subaru motor.

TMIC is good for simplicity and lack of pressure drop; the caveat is that it's more prone to heat soak, and the size restriction limits it far more than an FMIC in terms of cooling.

What you're aiming for and how much power you plan on making should be the deciding factors whether which one is better for your application IMO... :wink:

[subba]

ummm intresting, I most definately will do some research on the ECU situation and let you all know.

I definitely will be going with a FMIC, i never thought of size being a factor but it makes sense.

[subba]

Here is the car,
It is 100% stock, thats why i jumped on it, only thing it had was a gps system.

[adw_terror]

i dont think that you have to purchase the SYMS header in order to go parallel... i did some research a LOOOONG while back and found a website from a guy in england i believe who converted his car to parallel by simply rerouting/blocking off/splicing some vaccume lines... i have the diagrams somewhere around here... ill post them up when i get a chance

the way the series system works is through:

1- a valve that simply bypasses exhaust around the secondary turbo so that it doesnt spool up

and

2- a valve that keeps the passageway from the secondary turbo to the intercooler blocked off... it does that so that when the primary turbo spools up, pressure is created instead of all the air just going out through the secondary turbo

once 5k rpms is reached both of those valves reverse and the turbo spools up and creates pressure in the intake system... this doesnt happen right away, of course, and that in turn creates the dreaded VOD

i dont think that itll cause an issue with the ecu and i think itll create a powerband that is better for both the engine and create a car thats more fun to drive... im just too lazy and havent gone out to purchase all the vaccume lines and connectors lol
-Josh

[subba]

Mods is it possible to split this thread & make a new topic in Swaps and Conversions?

This info might be useful to someone else in the future :grin:

josh: once you start the conversion let us know, i have a feeling the TT has more potential than people think :cool:

[DOOK]

good looking car for sure. As for the turbo situation, if you're going true twins getting smaller turbos will make the system more efficient. A lot of times in sequential turbo systems they use an initial small turbo for fast spool up and a larger turbo as the secondary that is helped spooling by the first turbo and is the one that actually provides the larger power boost, at least that is the way the twin turbo 13B mazda motors work. they also have primary and secondary injectors, don't know about subarus though.

[subba]

A lil update of the work i done this weekend,

As you all know the GT-B is up for sale because of insurance reasons :( sucks because i got a Sequential Controller on its way :(

What i did was switch the tophats of the front of the coilovers (the plate with the Bolts), Installed my strut bar & Installed my soundsystem & Converted to a cone filter system.
Started at 6am finished at 4pm lol with a long ass break in between tho :lol:

Pics of everything below, Engine bay needs cleaning but i plan on doing that later on in the week when i decide to tackle changing my spark plugs.

Future upgrades,
Grounding Kit
5spd Swap
Repaint Hood and bumper


I wont be giving this car up for a while, once i can get insurance on a TT legacy i am just going the buy a front clip then convert this, if i have a donor car the garage is only going to charge me KYD $800 for a full motor and tranny swap. about USD $980, Cant beat that anywhere.
Right now i am able to get a 5spd nonturbo but i done supplying the island with Subaru's so i am swapping this one :grin:

[mranlet]

You have to swap the top hats side to side and then rotate them. Mine are within 10 degrees of direct camber adjustment.

[Reason]

Why don't you do an engine swap? The insurance company won't know.

[subba]

normally they wouldnt but i sorta told em off so they have me on survalance. I am switching companies so they will let me get a 5spd no problem, just not turbo. they said they want to inspect it after i do the swap :(

[decke48]

the problem if he swapped his engine. is if he ever gets in a accident and they see the wrong engine they will just cancel his claim and he will be out the money for his car.

^yes they will want to inspect it so they wont see it as a saftey issue

[peugoby]

Thats a bummer you have to get rid of the TT.

I had to comment on your custom sub box in the white wagon. That is awesome! It looks like it fits so nicely, and barely takes up any room. Well done.

[Reason]

They inspect your engine after in accident? Is that just in caymen islands? I never heard of that before.

[decke48]

idk.. my friend had a 00 rs w/ a sti swap and he rear ended someone. he got his claim denied because he moddifed his car in to a different insurance class(rated on top speed, and other stuff). and it was not reported. but he had a real hardass inspect his claim. well i guess if he get rear ended im sure the wont open the hood. so they wont know

[subba]

i was thinking about getting some OEM mudguards but i would get owed by speed bumps, You know my OEM jack got bent trying to jack up the car, thats why i had to take off the side skirt in the pic of the car on stands lol


They inspect your engine after in accident? Is that just in caymen islands? I never heard of that before.

Yep my rep will inspect it and if i hit someone their rep will inspect both cars and they will go by what my insurance company got on file, if it has turbos and my insurance cert dont say it i am screwed, i rather play it safe because even though i try my best to be a responsible driver, their is always lunatics on the road.


Thats a bummer you have to get rid of the TT.

Its Custom built, I had theses subs ever since i had the first wagon lol just gotten around to getting box built for it.


I am really depressed that i have to sell the GT-B :(

[subba]

I took the Wagon for a AutoX again but this time i got a vid :grin:

This was my first run, to familiarize myself with the track, i couldnt get my final run because the battery died :( found out the car does not have a 50/50 Tq Split (I am still a subie noob lol).... I was Siding up out out of the 270 turns lol, damn i wish i had it on camera... actually i cant wait to run the GTB because its no longer 4 sale :smt033

on the Intercooler point wouldnt it be a better setup to reverse the intake manifold and do a V-mount ?

Your steering wheel is on the wrong side!!! And the first pic is a manual and second pic is an auto...

[subba]

Got the car converted to manual, 4EAT Transmissions are heavy :shock:

Using the Stock Auto ECU with no mods, it was a bit rough driving it home but i reset the ecu and it smoothed things out. The throttle response is still a bit sluggish but i was told the mild remedy for that is to upgrade the grounding so i will be doing that soon. The car is finally semi-fun to drive.



They said they didnt see a TCU, the only box i saw was for the air bag :smt017 Anyone know where it is located on a BG?

[Huffer]

TCU is behind the center console, under the radio. Can't believe they didn't know where that was.

How big of a job did that end up getting? Most of the time here in the US the whole auto-manual swap thing isn't that feasible because of the cost-value isn't really there... (i.e. cheaper to just buy a manual subbie in the first place).

[subba]

They said it was pretty straight forward, THe only snagg that had was that they couldn't get it started, so they called in an electrician, he comes in, turns the key holds down the gas and it starts but shuts out, appearantly its one of the hoses on the intake tube wasn't pluged back in. apart from that they said it was a breeze because all the holes for the master cylinder etc.. had the holes pre drilled so everything bolted right up.

THe electritian prob scratched his head once but he jus said "oooK" 5 mins later my Tach & Reverse lights work.

THe swap was $540 (USD) + Electrician - 90 USD = USD $630
[I only paid Labour because i took the tranny + required parts from the GTB]
I literally did a swap on both cars, all i need now is a a/t ECU+Harness & a Auto Radiator to have the GTB completed.

labour for swapping both cars came up to (USD) $1080.



TCU is behind the center console, under the radio. Can't believe they didn't know where that was.
They had no clue what it was, neither did i, i thought it was for airbags. Not much Subaru Mechs on this island unfortunately, So i am going to have the ABS issue once thats disconnected... argg.



EDIT: The dang Dead Pedal Driving me Nuts, anyone knows how to take it off... i already tried Force + Flathead Screwdriver.

Lil Update

At this point i am very close to my next mod.
(The tint on the back windows and trunk is OEM, One feature of the TS-R models)
https://sl-i.net/FORUM/images/imported/2008/08/DSCF14281-1.jpg

I am swapping the GT-B motor into this chassis, i am going to fiddle with the Twin turbo motor to see what can be done to it, but if/when i am not satisfied i will convert to single turbo.

I did a lil modification to my Intake setup..... I dont like cone filters.
Dissected the intake silencer a lil bit. i cut off the entry side of the silencer/snorkus so i could put the fender plug over it, but that failed. i might have to dissect the plug for it to cover. (I know the duct tape is a bit ghetto lol)

Completed my EJ20H Swap, Currently going through headaches, hearing a vacume leak and i am not getting any secondary turbo pressure.

i came close to getting complete single turbo swap but i decided to past because the car has been out of commission since 04 (VF34).......... I decided to take the seats, 300 bucks Local (360 USD) all they need is a shampooing, no rips the rails are free. i got both fronts and back seats :D

Turboxs knock lite
greddy turbo timer (had it since April lol)
Cobalt 30psi boost vacuum gauge - Installed
Zero/Sports Sequential Controller



I am getting sick of this motor already........ Huffer and ruben shhhhhh :lol:

The Swap alone was hurrendus, i initially got quoted 450 but then the subframe, ABS, Exhaust wench thing in the trunk had to be swapped over.

The radiator is too tall so i have so slam the hood to close it :cry:

i was thinking of going single turbo which i will but i wont be converting i am gonna go USDM EJ25 OBD2 or try and find a Turbo Gen1 legacy (always wanted one)

[subba]

btw the reason i got the interior is not because its nicer than the one i have, its because i am trying to kill weight.

[deadlydave]

those are some awesome seats man, wow. Killing weight is a good thing. At least you don't have a sunroof, that stuff is HEAVY.

[deadlydave]

How's the wagon go, stop, and handle with all that baggage missing? :cool:

[subba]

when it has weight it handles great but last time i raced it, it was semi gutted and the ass end wouldn't behave but the fronts are amazing, i might try and get a different spring rate for the back, i guess its because its designed for a impreza and not the legacy.

[subba]

APEXi AVC-R Obtained :)

Will be making a plate in my dash to put it and the Z/S controller and i am relocating the ECU behind the dash.
Also moving the power window switches to the center console also. It will be out eventually but not for now.

I am contemplating putting in a GC8 STi Dash in the car and i also have a regular WRX dash, i will literally weigh the difference :)

bleh i hope they fit lol

[Reason]

The dash will fit, it just looks off if your interior is stock. Since you gutted the car it won't matter. Good idea to go with the lighter of the bunch. You have any way to weigh the car when you are finished?

[subba]

i think their are scales at my alignment shop, i am going to need to get the car aligned after i am dont so i will try and do it then. but the idea currently is that i am keeping everything i took out, throw em in a big bucket and weight it to see the difference.

[deadlydave]

Is the tail end sliding out on you, or is it understeering?

If it's sliding out,
You could add negative camber in the rear to give you a better contact patch during cornering.

If it's understeering, stiffer springs.

If it's bouncing everywhere, maybe get some differently valved coilovers or struts.

[subba]

its sliding, but for now i am giving it the benefit of the doubt because all the weight redux i did last race was at the rear, literally nothing to the front. the car had a stace with the rear being higher than the front, i am killing some frontend weight now and the front is getting higher so after im doine i am going to need to re adjust all fours, hopefully i can get to do it on the scales :)

Quick question also, which tyre profile you think would be a better choice for my wagon?

I am sticking with the GTB Rims, 17x7

215/45 R17 (What i currently use)
235/40 R17
245/35 R17

Here is my tyre choice.

[Huffer]

:lol: my brother in law works at Summit in Ohio.

Car looks sweet without the rails. I'm planning on doing that myself and plugging the holes.

[Reuben]

Wow, the car sure is coming along, you're gong to have to do the sound deadening soon, break out the dry ice :D

And if you go too wide a tyre, you lose the responsiveness, i recomend 225/45R17, get some toyo R888's or something, but if you want road tyres, Bridgestone RE001's

Hows the AVC-R btw?

[subba]

I started the sound deadening but i ran out of refridgerant , i only got to do behind the dash :( *we dont have dry ice on this POS island lol*

For autox here their is two classes i can enter, Unlimited or 4WD and they are decided by threadwear.. Just threadware nothing else lol

the R888 would put me in unlimited, where i would get my but kicked by the pocet rocket cars like the usual suspects, 96 mirage HB (Full Race), a 80's RWD Starlet (Full Race ITB Carb goodness), Toyota altezza (Full Race), a K20 EK civic (Full race + ITB's) lol

The AVCR is sitting pretty... in my room.. somewhere, i need to get a fuel pump first, i am still using the pump from when the car was N/A so that might explain why i only get 11psi :(

Im running 225/45R17 right now and its pretty good so i might stuck with it thanks :smt023

Ruben can u source a BG/BD specific roll cage by anychance?

[xXGTBspecXx]

just get one for the GD series.. little or no mods needed to fit them in..

and quick question how hard was it to remove the sound deadening?? what did you do? i need to take that stuff out of my STi and it doesnt peel up.

[subba]

i use the A/C Recharge kit or freon because i dont have access to dry ice :( all i did was spray it on the deadening and give it like 10 seconds then i used a hard putty knife and a hammer then start knocking under the edges and it will lift up after each knock.

I might have to repaint my whole inside when i am done and i would reccomend anyone who use this method to do that.

[Reuben]

Just get a caged fabbed. And if you do get it painted, you can finish off the sound deadening job with a grinder. :grin:

Also, get that fuel pump in ASAP, i'm amazed you haven't blown the engine up already!

[subba]

would you know of a pump i can use? will a regular walbro 255 work?

The car barely moves lol maybe thats why my motor didnt looking for 72 virgins.

[subba]

i had a walbro fuel pump at one time, but times got rough and i needed lunch money so i sold it :P

would this work?

[Reuben]

Not sure... really don't know sorry. Walbro is def the brand most recommended over at clubsub, might pay to ask them if that particular one fits.

[xXGTBspecXx]

cool thanks and just get a walbro of the bay..

[subba]

highlight of my day, this just in from my mechanic..



diff housing has a 8inch crack along the top of it

one of the inner axle splines is basically chewed up

car needs complete rear diff assembly and one inner axle joint

[Reuben]

Sweet, R180 swap!

I might actually be able to help you on that one too. Maybe. Will look into shipping and price, could be much cheaper, could be a waste of time..

At any rate, you'll need to post up your tranny code, but i'm pretty sure it'll be a 4.444 gear box you have.

[subba]

R180 swap? ur a bad influence on my pocket.

depending on if my ring gear made it through this whole ordeal, all i need is axels and a diff pumpkin. i already have a suretrac LSD from a JDM bugeye.


I am trying to find a TTBD in japan but im better off finding a RHD Corvette.

I am considering buying a 1.3 Turbo starlet, gut it, throw on suspension and call it a day.

if i blow the motor, i can get a replacement block for like 300 bucks lol

:smt002

Yeah, found out R180's are rare and expensive anyway, i be no use to ya. Hope it get's going again soon.

[subba]

i am parting out the legacy, im jumping ship, Mazda here i come!

I will see Subaru again in a few years after we get the extended circuit

[Huffer]

How you going to part out a shell?

[subba]

the shell is undecided, if any of you guys want something, i will let stuff go for cheap to you guys because shipping is a beach. i wont be making much but i rather see you guys with uniqueness than having them sit in my yard to dry rot lol

Drivetrain and stuff like that will be local.

[xXGTBspecXx]

[xXGTBspecXx]

Sideskirts
Folding mirros + switch,
Brakelights,
side markers Plus Harness Cut
Rear wing spoiler
Bilstein badge+TSR badge

im looking at maybe 900 shipped? it depends on what the shipping cost is, its prob 450 so i would like to make 450 back so 900 :-)

someone can buy the whole thing and part it out for a nice comphy profit :)

[I will take detailed pics when i dismantle the car]

[subba]

i kinda want your front bumper...with both sets of fogs

[Reason]

:twisted:

[Bohemian_Funk]

Hey Subba if you still have the front bumper, as it so happens, I have an SR-5 rear axle that I no longer need (got a GT-S rear with LSD) that would make for a great spool axle for autox/drifting/etc. Of course I'm basically broke so it'd have to be a trade. You know, shipping price for shipping price. Might throw in some various other OEM AE86 parts if you want (don't have much though, basically just the interior, and even that's not in terribly good shape).

what's this about a hole in the cup of the lowbeam? I would like the headlights if they are still in working condition...
