Turkeylord

Brought home a new rest slab yesterday.

Hate to bump this thread from 2018, but I'm looking for another vacuum line T and they don't appear to be in stock on your website. If I order one will you still be able to send one my way?

Hi! Apologies for the delay, hoping to have these back in stock next week!

Sold my baby today, definitely mixed feelings about that. New owner is a Subaru Ambassador and crazy about Subies. Kept saying this was his dream car/build. I’m sure he will take good care of her.

Thanks everyone here for all your support over the years. This community is really something special.

Also, does this thing belong with the car?

Turkeylord, that is also a solid plan for a brand new engine. Is that just through the oil pressure sensor port?

Yep, exactly.

I got my dip stick tube o-rings replaced (PITA) and got the undertray replaced. Now I’m just waiting for a door lock actuator to come in and it’s all set for the new owner.

There's also this:

Having some fun with slo-mo... Got squat?

Having some fun with slo-mo... Got squat?

Cut a slot in the end of the ignition barrel rod and made a little flat bar piece out of a nickel to put in there. Seems to work ok! I found an ignition cylinder on eBay and the seller accepted my $50 offer, so that’s a solid plan B if needed.

Took it for a 20 mile drive, felt great!

Yesterday, finished buttoning up the FPCM module wiring, replaced the fuse, and started putting some of the interior back in.

Tonight, pulled apart the ignition cylinder. Going to see if I can fix the broken part, otherwise at least I have the parts needed to re-key a new one.

*edit* Just figured out that the broken part is called a "barrel rod". Seems to be available for other makes and models...

Oh shite. Heavily modded is an understatement.

 

 

I'm guessing you were pushing a bit more than my BNR HTA68 given the E85, 9:1, and manual trans... besides that we had somewhat similar mod lists.

 

 

 

I know the feeling of loss as well, my friend. These things die in the top end very quickly in stock form, and mine is only an A4 base. Looking forward to getting it tuned next year if I can wait that long (warranty). Stage 1 is as far as I'll go, most likely. Stage 2 just requires a high flow cat on top of Stage 1 but the gains are like 12 WHP and 2 WTQ (looking at APR's marketing stuff, anyway).

 

 

 

What happened to it? Did it pop? Or just become unreliable DD?

woah... sorry to hear of that SubOperator.

 

 

Turkeylord I don't know the history of your LGT. Heavily modded?

I don't think I have a full mod list written down anywhere, so I'm going to work on it in this post. My guess is there will be numerous edits as I remember more stuff.

Replaced the fuel pump output o-ring, fuel return o-ring, and fuel pump harness. Took it for a rip. Fuel prime/pressure issue and intermittent electrical problem appear to be solved.

The S4 is waaay slower.

08 S4 to solve unreliable car problems? You're just a glutton for punishment.

Nice score! Join up at audizine.com. You'll be unnecessarily spending more money in no time!

Hey trans engines have feelings too you know.

It’s an S4, but yes, it is cisengined.

Is that a S6 ?

‘08 S4 6MT. Only 50k on the clock! Definitely a little smaller inside than the LGT though.

Finally solved my LGT woes...

All set for tomorrow night’s outdoor movie.

Just shipped out an EBCS fitting order this morning. Glad people are still finding this thread.

Thanks Ralph!
