Summary of change:
'''Subaru Legacy Outback (JDM Grand Wagon) AKA The Daily Driver''' --Why is there smoke coming out? Hmm. Seems one of the heads is leaking oil onto the exhaust manifold. Better fix things before I set it all on fire.-- Fitting new rocker cover gaskets, cambelt, seals, idlers, etc seems to have sorted it. $985 NZD. The car is basically a Legacy Wagon with too much suspension. It's got a 2.5L flat four, with a four speed automatic gearbox. It's a 1996 model, so it's getting a little tired now. Blew out a head gasket driving to work, so time for a freshen up! Chassis * --[http://www.kyb.co.jp/shock/products/330000.html KYB Excel-G] struts.-- Done. $620 NZD parts. $300 NZD for fitting. Car feels more stable on the road and much safer. * Polyurethane bushes. * --[http://www.whiteline.com.au/swaybars.htm Whiteline] sway bar links.-- Done. $265 NZD. Huge improvement. Less wallowing and better turn-in, even with old shocks. * [http://www.lovells.com.au/products.php?p=coil Lovells] +1" coil springs. * Whiteline sway bar mounts. * Whiteline sway bars. * Whiteline tower braces. * --[http://www.dba.com.au/dba_catalogue_2004/HTML/Standardseries/standard_index.htm DBA Standard series] rotors and EBC Greenstuff pads.-- Done. It now stops better. * [http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/DisplayWheel.jsp?wheelMake=BBS&wheelModel=RGR&wheelFinish=Diamond+Black+Painted BBS RGR 18x7.5] rims in Diamond Black finish (or cheaper copies). * Michelin Pilot Sport 245/45ZR18 tyres. We have some Pilots on the horse float. :) * Subaru VLSD rear diff and axles. Engine * Rebuilt original EJ25 DOHC ** Internals *** Kelford "Stage 1" DOHC regrind cams [http://www.kelford.co.nz/racingregrinds.html camshafts] ''Wants ECU first.'' $500 NZD *** Full Subaru gasket set. $180 USD = $267 NZD ** Intake *** Remove MAF meter. ''Needs ECU first.'' $0 *** Custom cold air intake. ''Needs ECU first.'' $150 NZD *** Wizards of NOS 100i kit. 489 GBP = $1300 NZD ** Exhaust *** Borla headers. ''Wants ECU first, not with AVO turbo kit'' p/n 17183 $324 USD = $480 NZD *** 2.5" Custom system with Borla components. ''Needs ECU first.'' HKS and GReddy make bolt-on cat-back systems for the BG9 wagon, but note "Grand Wagon installation failure"...? Apparently the rear bumper is the main difference - it's needs to be hacked to fit. $1200 NZD ** Controls *** VEMS ECU running sequential fuel and DIS wasted-spark ignition. Wideband O2, knock interface, and EGT. --Really need to find a wiring diagram for this car.-- Diagram found. 450 Euro = $800 NZD *** VEMS Lambda and EGT meter. ** Externals *** N1 alloy pulley set. $169.95 USD + $31.35 Shipping = $320 NZD (or Unorthodox Racing main pulley for $90?) It should look something like this... http://www.vems.hu/files/MembersPage/RichardBarrington/outback.jpg ---- '''Subaru EJ25 DOHC Genboard v3''' Grandwagon needs a Genboard... MembersPage/RichardBarrington/SubaruFeatures MembersPage/RichardBarrington/SubaruWiring MembersPage/RichardBarrington/SubaruCode * Marcell, sounds like you've got it under control, but if you need anything tested/verified/measured for the Subaru system please let me know. ** of course, we do. If you could '''add subaru trigger support''' to /svn/firmware/utilities/testing/signalgenerator/signalgen.c or supply sufficient stereo wavs (or mp3) for a wide RPM range (like a 2 min sweep 100..12000 RPM would be fine) ---- Back to MembersPage/RichardBarrington
