I want those valve covers...

So buy 'em from japanparts.com?

[GC8REX]

ones the block breather and the other is vents for pcv system, what model you have with single port ?

1995 WRX and 1997 Forester. Seems they use just one for pcv and breather

Turbo Seal Clamps

Constant Tension Turbo Seal Clamps - With a convoluted heat-treated band that provides spring-like tensioning effects for thermal cycling hose applications.

Murray’s unique “DUAL BEAD SHIELD” concentrates band-sealing pressure, increasing performance up to 30% compared to standard smooth liners. Flanged edges protect soft hose compounds from abrasion and wear.



when you need the best like the real real races cars !! then these are the best !

well today was a perfect day to pull it out and start the work on the car, lots of rain wash the salt away so why not bring the car home.

my new black wheels that are so black i cant get a good pic of them lol

GC8 VOLK Rays STi 5x100 16x7 ET 53   with the proper stickers for how ever long they last lol.










also i was going to use these on my Legacy EG33 build, but ill use them here first. Whitline KSB751 will reduce rear-end float particularly under acceleration... why not fits like a glove lol

made for the new style subaru 1989 to 2007, subaru sure does love re using something that works well over many years.

That exhaust looks ripe for scraping. How far off the ground is it?

the car looks really low but its pretty high up, speed bumps dont do anything.























well the new BW s300sx FMW fits and is in, along with the JDM STi magnesium valve covers.

also had to take the timing belt off and pulleys so I could get to the oil feed line for the AVCS and get the screens out !.. pain in the butt but i had to get it done.

good thing I have room still for the 4" cone aem filter and set up for this turbo.

I had also changed the vacuum lines for the dual wastegates to hi temp silicone to handle the heat stress in that area.

just need to wait for the turbo pipe I ordered so I can complete it all. 











and the new brakes set up with stainless steel pistons better for heat transfer on the fluid

[nico]

Ver 2 turbo pipes all made simple and silicone, with the fancy clamps. soon its time to tune this craziness.

[nico]

so since I am waiting for Franz to come visit and do the magic on the tune for the s300sx, I add some Hella 550 amber retro lights.











and the 1986 Alfa Romeo GTV, 86 Subaru VS 86 Alfa lol
