Dash wiring guide (Tach and VSS), for tacho dash conversion.
With the help of my multimeter, a 12V power supply, some bench space, and the suggestions of other members, I have started to definitively map out the 4-gauge tacho dash, and the standard non-tacho dash. First of all the tacho wiring pin; This is the PCB trace for the Tacho, marked "TA"; http://imgh...

L-Series VSS signal MPFI
Hi all,
Does anyone have a wiring diagram showing the pinouts from the MPFI dash?
I'm looking to pick up the VSS signal from the reed switch...

Re: WRX EJ20 Turbo into L-Series Wagon
The first thing I'm going to suggest is to redo the brake lines for the rear. You've attached a hardline to a movable part (the caliper). The original line fitted to the backing plate of the drum which was fixed. It's not much of a movement, but over time that will flex and fatigue. Do you want you...

Re: WRX EJ20 Turbo into L-Series Wagon
@L-Rex - can you explain what you did to the diff? I'm guessing you swapped out the diff centre to use the factory L diff stubs. Correct? Cheers Bennie Basically, it's a WRX diff, with the tophat out of the L-Series. I fitted the WRX crownwheel on to the L-series tophat. This allows the use of the ...

Re: WRX EJ20 Turbo into L-Series Wagon
I passed my RX Turbo sedan (converted the EJ20 turbo and matching awd gbox) over WA Pits with stock standard brakes (new rotors on the front, good condition ones at rear). But much easier I guess because of: 1) WA pits are very easy to pass 2) The car was already factory "turbo" My whole brake setu...

Re: WRX EJ20 Turbo into L-Series Wagon
Ooh yeah! Nice work there! I'm wondering how you'll get the L series all disc brakes passed a brake test with that turbo engine? Asking as I'm keen to do the same with my brumby - turbo setup with stock stud pattern for the ultimate sleeper setup. I too will be running a set of scorpions ;) It's pr...

Re: G'Day from Wollongong
Ah now that is cool. I've only seen that done once before. I played around with doing it myself before I'd seen anyone else do it but I wasn't game to cut through the wheel well and didn't have a lot of time to spend on it. Instead I chopped up the L series pedal, and a Liberty pedal and welded the...

WRX EJ20 Turbo into L-Series Wagon
Hi All, Thought I'd start sharing the build thread for my latest project. First, some background on me; I am an engineer, with 25+ years experience in the conversion scene, and enjoy doing the unusual conversions that most people don't attempt. All of my conversions are fully complied through RTA/RM...

Re: G'Day from Wollongong
Welcome. Cool, sounds awesome. Look forward to seeing the build thread. Interested to see how you sort out the hydraulic clutch setup, that's always a bit of fun! Took a bit of measuring, but I worked it out. Modified WRX pedal box, cut a slot in the wheel well, fabricated a box and welded it in. S...

G'Day from Wollongong
Hi all, I've been an L Series fan for many years, and am currently on my 3rd wagon. Having done a couple of EJ conversions (EJ - EA Gearbox) for other people, I have started my own conversion. I'm dumping a manual Bug-Eye WRX driveline into my wagon, and am fairly well down the line with the job. Bu...
