I figured I'd make an actual thread for the oil pan upgrade I did on my 05 Sti rather then just posting it in my build thread. So the reason I went with the 06+ sti oil pan was because my equal length headers were pretty much touching the pan when I test fitted them. The attached photos are a...
I figured I'd start a thread and share the experience I've acquired on DIY porting and polishing of miscellaneous subaru parts. First thing I'm going to say is I'm not a professional and never have done any P&P work until my subaru rebuild so please take everything I say and post as a novice...
So the research I've done on installing the O2 sensor in a down pipe requires it to be installed 16 to 36 inches down stream from turbo along with it being before any catalytic converter.
The main discussion topics I would like to discuss are listed below.
1) What is the best location to...
This is a weired question since most people don't want side feed injectors you never hear about people converting top feed systems to a side feed system.
Here's the scenario I can come up on a set of tgv housings, fuel rails and ID 1000's if I have a set of stock components that work with the...
I'm curious to see if anybody has successfully installed a tablet that is windows compatible for tuning, data logging, and as a Guage using a tactrix cable?
I'm considering relocating the radio to the glove box and using the center dash as the area to mount a tablet in dash using a tactrix...
Since I'm investing in porting equipment I'm considering porting my VF39. What are your guys opinions on port matching the turbine exhaust housing of the turbo to the up pipe along with mildly porting the inlet side as well. I'm also looking to port the waste gate to reduce boost creep issues...
Can I get some quotes on a set of ID 1000's with pig tails for a 2005 sti that has top feed Tumbler Valve Housings and fuel rails?
The second thing I'm searching for is a company 23 cam lock tool since I'm installing the timing belt this upcoming week.
Thanks for any price quotes.
A goal...
Sorry about a stupid question but I'm overly cautious at times and want to make sure I don't make a major mistake while installing the cam gears and timing belt on my newly rebuilt heads and motor.
So when installing the cam gears on to the cams and rotating the cams to align the gears timing...
First off the car is a stock turbo 05 sti that I purchased in 06 that has all the stage 2 bolt on and a bit more. I purchased a perrin FMIC in 06 because the tuner told me I should get that for a more reliable and powerful tune.
Now flash forward to 2016 I'm in the process of rebuilding the...
I just wanted to share my experience that I've had so far with Dave from HeadGames Motorworks along with a small review.
I originally contacted Dave thru facebook who promptly returned my message and took the time to answer several questions I had and then told me to call him so he could...
So I might be able to get a good deal on a set of 4 used Injector Dynamics 1000's that are coming off of a 2015 sti and am having issues finding out if they would fit a 2005 sti that's been converted to top feed injectors.
Does anybody know if the 2015 sti ID1000 will fit this vehicle?

Hello I'm inquiring about what modifications would be needed to install one of these big plenum long runner intakes from the 04 to 07 impreza on an sti.

So I saw this toy on a subaru Facebook page and now want one. It would be cool for a backpacker or fisherman that wants to explore.
I figured this could be a useful thread to start since I'm probably not the only one thats in the predicament of trying to locate a legitimate machine shop that can do Porting and Valve Work with assembly and adjustment of the valve and can assembly.
Lets hear some suggestions of machine...
Since I have to get a valve job done on my 2005 sti heads I'm considering doing some mild porting of the heads.
Is it a complete waste of time and money while still running the stock VF39?
Will it increase or decrease turbo spool time?
The other question is if I decided to drop massive...
Obviously my car was eating excessive oil but what do you guys think of the condition in these pics I've only got one head off so far since the cam and crank bolts put up a battle and ate my work time.
While removing my turbo from my 05 STI I noticed the impeller had this flaw on it.
Is this just the way they balance them or is this impeller getting ready to go.
The turbo was replaced by the dealership under warranty probably less then 5k miles ago so in just curious to know if its normal...
Well I've finally decided to post up a build thread since I am finally trying to get my car on the road again. We can say I've owned my car parked more year then I have owned it when it ran.
Its nothing special but still my favorite year of STI and I feel that the body lines will still be...
Im finally about to pull motor this Sunday since all thats needed is to unbolt motor mounts and then the bellhousing bolts to get my block out.
Since I have a version 1 ap with a pro tune on my stock turbo i don't want to do too much upgrading while I'm rebuilding because I don't want to have...
