2000 model club spec 3 wrx, has new mags and tyres,interior in good condition bar the steering wheel that has splits and one tiny rub through on the drivers seat. rear spoiler and bonnet vents paint is breaking down the rest isn't bad and is quite tidy. The head gasket has gone.. still runs but the ...

thanks fellas, i will check the turbo but the mechanic did a test on the radiator and it showed signs of something (it turned the fluid he used a different colour) the 2000 front cut i have has a good engine as i brought it to transplant it into a beetle and it only has 98 tho on it. i'll check it a...

just wondering whats the main difference in the engine over a standard wrx? i have a club spec that has the same turbo as the sti (not sure if thats standard) and its started useing oil and blowing smoke. when we investigated its the head gasket. I've had a quote to fix and i understand that it mite...

well it looks like a found one in australia!!!! my local subaru dealership tracked one down by linking to all the other dealerships! the only one( through subaru) in australia but the good part is i will now have a part number so that i can seek a spare from other suppliers much easier. i should hav...

Sounds like you've changed from the older vacuum dizzy to the later optical unit. If that's the case start using google for xt parts suppliers in the states or even ebay.com. As someone else said although Subaru imported a few cars later in the 80s, they were so few and far between that most dealer...

i've not long changed it over so that i have a 4 wire one so that my microtech was getting a full set of signals, the original one only had two wires coming from, it..

cheers mate but i have already done that. the only one that lookes even close is a nissan one and i don't think its useable but if no luck else where its the only slim option i have....

hey i am hoping someone on here will be able to point me in the right direction i have a Ea82t in my car and i went to do a service, Repco supplyed the plugs,leads,rotor button etc. now the porblem i have is the rotor button, they supplyed me a short stemed pushon style where as mine is a long stem ...

Just rebuilt my Ea82T from top to bottom with everything standard bar the injectors(60cc bigger) and having the crank,rods and flywheel balanced and lightened. I run 9psi and that returns 119bhp at the wheels(microtech lt10 ecu) and i am quite happy with it but as always i have the desire for more!!...

FIXED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! it ended up being one of the vacum pipes had a small split, i had tryed new injectors and fuel pump when we noticed the slight leak. so i replaced all the vacum lines and wooossshhh! all good so put it on the dyno and we made 119 rear wheel bhp!!! very happy!!!.. thx for...

on my EA82T when ever the fuel pressure gets to 40 psi it leans out really badly. Its running the standard reg( tryed a malpassie but the same) with 60cc over sized injectors. Have tryed upping the pressure but still at 40 psi it leans out badly. Its running a microtech lt10 so we also tryed the map...

hey steff, what is this motor in ? With your user name sounds like it may be replacing Hitlers revenge type stuff ? What boost pressure was the engine using to get the 112 WHP? Jonno Its sitting in the back of a Baja, highly cut down beetle with fiberglass panels. nothing to them hence the power to...

i have to say Scoobidoo's idea seems a little scary but the advice i have had from him in the past has been very indepth and very helpfull so i would say this would be to. Right now i am just intrested in gettign the ECU all hooked up and working, then when any bugs have been worked out i will start...

thought as much, so anyone got a later dissy they want to sell me?

i am guessing they fit with no issues

steff............................

i have a EA82T (3 plug ecu) and i have a Microtech LT10. My dissy has the four wires coming out but the problem i am having is the computer has been set to read a crank angle and the cam angle from the dissy but i only have one pulse out. When the engine was fitted they bypassed the signal and had i...

Is it possible to swop the wiring loom on my EA82T three plug(to ECU) to a four? Its only the wiring from engine to ecu, nothing else as the engines in my *coughvwcough* so no wipers,lights,etc etc etc to worry about.


steff...........

The 2 screws on the throttle body are for idle speed, and fast idle speed (the one when air con is on) The EA82 ecu is not programable. If you have the factory air flow meter, the a/f ratios should be pretty close. The only way to modify them is with an aftermarket ecu. bollocks!! there u go not ge...

what about the mixtures? where they have played around with the two screws(mixture and idle?) is there a base setting for them to get it in the ball park? Yea the fly wheels a pain the the arse!! and yea before the build i should have marked, even when we set it to tdc on one to get it where it is n...
