    Both wagons loooking hot!! I told you the junkyard turbo works like a charm and cheap too! Have fun with it, gonna try to get down there and take a spin with you sometime. I'll probably be dumping my CRV off soon to pick up a Subie wagon :wink: Like the Legacy but the WRX is where its at :evil:

    wrx are for punk ass 16 year olds kids that mommy and daddy buy everything for grow up! lol i dont like how they look legacy gt limited have better lineS IMO....

    Maybe the STi WRX is for the yuppie cocks but the WRX wagon has a different following. Nothing wrong with the Legacy, it looks good, they are just big cars. Too big for my taste, I like small, nimble cars. You have to admit that the Legacy has quite a bit of weight it has to throw around, all its all about power to weight ratio.

    I have a quick question, I have a t25 on a HF mani just like yours im trying to install on my CRX but its having clearence issues with the front crossmember... is this not the case with the wagon? I have a 88 wagon and if its gonna fit better Im gonna install it there...

    i did have clearence issues but i just cut the o2 housing and bent it in a better angele around the cross member. does that make sense? :roll: :?

    Automatic Transmission standard, versus Manual Transmission standard.

    that is not an advantage, that's a DISadvantage :P

    turbo setup looks great man, its good to hear from you again.
  • :shock:

    Wow.

    I love the way you've hidden everything. Battery in the bumper?!? That's just sick, man. I might have to try that.

    Amazing work.

    That things looks awesome. I bet it's a real blast to drive. Are you launching it really hard or easing out the clutch? Any wheel spin in 1st gear?

    About your exhaust:

    It looks to me like there's room to run a 3" down pipe between the oil pan and the transfer case. Is that correct? Also, would there be room for a cat and a resonator in the tunnel beside the driveshaft? If not, what if the driveshaft was only 3.75" in diameter, and there was no viscous coupling? Where does your muffler sit, and where does the exhaust cross over to the passenger side of the car? Are you running a rear sway bar?

    Sorry for all the questions, but I'm about to do my exhaust, and these are some of the things I'm wondering about. I also don't see a flex joint/pipe in your exhaust. Are you concerned about breaking the pipes at all, or is it there and I just don't see it?

    Thanks,

    Jacques

    yea shooting for 350 to 400whp and the wagon tranny can't hang :(
  • skinnyskinny Senior Wagonist
    Why wont the tranny hold it? I figure it would the the axles that couldnt handle that much power?
  • AK_CRXAK_CRX New Wagonist
    I wouldn't trust that much power on the rt 4wd either... If you've ever seen the 4 10mm bolts that hold the driveshaft to the tranny you'd probly feel the same, or the other 4 10mm bolts that hold the driveshaft to the differential. eek :shock: Dude, you should just convert it to fwd like I did!! have your wagon and eat it too, wait a sec. Have your CAKE and eat it too....

  • skinnyskinny Senior Wagonist
    So upgrade to grade 8 bolts and call it good. Its not about the size but the strength of the bolts.
  • evol911evol911 familEE
    Sorry but Grade 8 bolts aren't the cure all and definitely are not the strongest by far :roll:

    it's not the bolts im worryed about lol its the internals of the tranny, with that kind of load plus its kinda hard to find a clutch to hold 350 to 400hp

    :mrgreen:

    it says 200-400% over stock. and the stock will hold what 200-250hp? I know its alittle overboard but there are clutches that will handle what ever you can throw at them. hell they may even have a twin disc setup :lol:
