Thanks Bennie for the advise again

I'll have a chat with the guys this weekend (if nothing else pops up)

just cant wait to start the new project and have a running turbo vortex

Hey guys, I know I have asked this question before, I am looking to put the XT6 hubs on next weekend and wanting to get the coil over this week, just wanted to know what ones to get as I will be going to pedders suspenion. Do I ask them for a set of 95 WRX Coils and I know they are not a direct bolt...

Thanks for the reply guys :) Well I do have some great new. I managed to get the Black Vortex Started after so many years. My mechanic and I removed all the fuel lines, cleaned them out (using a mini air compressor) and relined every line and then it fired up :) So now I can start the full converson...

Thanks for that Bennie. The plan is to put all the good bits into the green one from my black vortex (my turbo engine and running gear etc...) get this painted black and finish off the project. Unfortunately I will have to get rid of the original black vortex as I don't have enough cash to do the ro...

Hi all just managed to take some photos of the new vortex and I will be working on my black one tomorrow and keep everyone updated. let me know what you guys think :) http://i262.photobucket.com/albums/ii99/JKTVY/MY%20VORTEX%20XT%20TURBO/20170708_173049_zpsnbwckfq8.jpg~original http://i262.photobuck...

Thanks again Bennie,

Just the front end as in Front Bumber as I am not the biggest fan of the Series 1 front

Thanks again Bennie.

If everything goes well this weekend the turbo engine will be running and slowly start the transfer

Is it possible to change the front end so I can have the S2 or am I stuck with the S1 front?

Thanks for the advise Bennie, I’m going to try this weekend to get my turbo engine from the Series 2 running and then start transferring everything over the weekends with my mechanic :) and yes it was the Green body with the brown interior and that will be swapped over with my sprayed black interior...

Thanks for the reply guys. I will be picking up the car this weekend and be posting photos soon

Hi guys I am about to buy a Series 1 Vortex and just want to know if I can put all my running gear eg: Engine, Gear Box, Diffs etc.. from my current 87.5 Serioes 2 to the new one as the Series 1 is Non Turbo, Auto and FWD. All I know is that the body is the same and just want to know if the engine a...

Hi guys Just had a quick question on doing an engine swap as I am looking into getting a FA20 from a BRZ (complete with manual gear box, looms ecu and keys) for around $6,000. I just wanted to know what’s involved and will the 4wd system still work as the engine will be from a rwd car or do I have t...
