the stock throttle cable from the wrx worked

1. drilled out cable end on throttle body
2. Flipped around throttle bracket
cable works great lol

 

That doesnt look like an Iron block, looks aluminum. Did you paint it siver?

 

It must've been painted silver, but you can still see tidbits of it rusting, so I'd guess it is in fact iron

 

Post #18 second picture down , you can see that theres a blank boss on the block. Iron blocks are blank. If it was aluminum it would be drilled and tapped from the factory for the alternater.

 

what throttle body is that if you dont mind me asking lol

 

 

ive touched up the paint on the transmission since these pics.
im still waiting on my valve covers and corvette engine covers to come back from being painted....they are subaru rally blue.

 

Sweet!! Your making fantastic progress! Any ideas on what rear?

 

cobra 8.8 or nissan....or even a gto...its in the corner of my garage allready.....its supposed to go in the s2000 though

 

Sick *** build!!!

 

so i missed this one
and damn hit the ricer meet after this

and where u fitting the turbos?

 

i have a spare 03 cobra subframe if you need it. pay shipping and its yours!

 

well im not sure specifically which rear is already in that year wrx but they use alot of the same rear ends as the nissans like the r160,r180,r200 etc so that would probably be your best bet as far as fitment goes. For that much power I would suggest the r200 if you go the nissan route.

 

this is why my intake is red......just so you will know
this is a stock STi

 

Damn man, wen you say your going to do something. You do it quick. Nice job so far. Cant wait to see it done.

 

good luck with the build! i've always wanted to see someone do this, and i know you can get it done. plus the turbos!!

props

 

Sweet build, should be done next week??

 

Awesome build!!!! I just may have to do this to my wrx What manifolds did you use? Did you have to modify the transmission tunnel? Can you use the stock steering components? Keep up the good work!

 

+1 ! It's like you snapped your fingers and damn, it's done (almost)
Sweet build as usual.
