Anyone else have an issue with the reverse lockout cable when re-installing the new STS? For me, it isn’t lining up with hole in the shifter where the pin is meant to be inserted, it’s about an inch short. Feel like I’m missing something glaring but not sure what it would be. If anyone is familiar and can let me know I would appreciate it

^^Madrig has the ideal setup. I’m slowly piecing together a similar setup myself. It seems extensive as he eluded to above but it’s worth it for the aesthetics IMO. I think your focus should be on EDM interior parts but I could be way off because I’m still learning as I go. Cheers boss

Thanks boss I really appreciate your time.

 

I’ll post a picture later tonight or this weekend of what I have.

 

Thanks again and let’s go Bruins!

I bought a vent bezel from an ‘05 Legacy with no nav, removed the cubby and kept the clock.

 

It doesn’t seem to be fitting exactly right and I thought I had heard/read that you’d need a specific bezel (JDM/EDM?) for a perfect fit.

 

My car is an ‘07LGT.B, I haven’t tried removing the nav and using the stock bezel because it doesn’t look like it would fit.

 

If the one I bought from the ‘05 legacy should fit and it’s just user error that would be ideal

 

Thanks Holla

Thanks to both for the response. That picture isn’t my car, just a screenshot of what I was trying to describe lol. It was from another thread I was reading on this forum.

 

That makes sense about the JDM RHD vs the USDM LHD STI cluster. Pretty sure the piece I need is the same as Holla posted above so this is a good start. Going to start by contacting the seller I bought the gauges from to see if they have any available

 

Thanks again

Trying to finish assembling parts for this install on my ‘07 but hitting an obstacle. The top part of the dash, just above the radio/head unit where the Nav screen is located (cubby/vent section) - the USDM options don’t seem to fit very flush. Attaching (hopefully) an image of what I’m referring to below.

 

 

Does anyone have an install thread or part number to point me in the right direction? My internet sleuthing hasn’t turned up anything for that specific part yet but will keep looking this week. If I find it in the interim I’ll post here but wanted to put a feeler out too. Thanks all

Throwing my hat in the ring - I would also pick it up if unclemat is unable/unwilling to for any reason. Count me as second on the list if you can!

My buddy just bought #003 today with 200k on it, all one previous owner. Will be located in Beverly, MA for a few months at least so now there are two in one (fairly small) city!

Replacing up pipe is a good idea. I just did mine at 123000 cus the cat was clogged causing misfire's.

 

Has anyone here had the paint re-sprayed? If so was it easy to find a shop that can match it and what did it cost/what's fair to expect?

I have an 06 LGT spec.B w/ misfire issues. Here are the key notes from the mechanic that did the diag, I'm sure it will make more sense than if I tried to explain it myself.

"Choppy on Aggressive Acceleration w/Major Loss of Power
- Aggressive Acceleration Cause ''In Progress'' Cylinder Misfire
- Roughness Across All 4 Cylinders Starting with 2 and 4
- Knock Sum - Between 8-16 Counts
- Idle AFR - Somewhat Rich - 14.1-14.3
Cylinder Compression Test - Warm/Dry:
Cyl 1 - 151.0psi
Cyl 2 - 140.5psi
Cyl 3 - 146.0psi
Cyl 4 - 145.0psi
Results Healthy and Within Specification
Notes - Post-Work:
- Fuel Pressure Within Specification
- Compression Test - Healthy
- Coil Packs Frayed
- MAF Sensor - Did NOT Appear to be Damaged - No Change in AFR after Swapping or Cleaning
- Cylinder Roughness First Counted in Cylinder 2 and 4
- CEL - Misfire All Cylinder 1 and 2 with 000 codes for 3 and 4". "“OCV Diagnostic Notes:
- OCV on both left and right intake appear to be delayed in response and a decrease in output (angle %) is also apparent. This could possibly indicate a failure in the OCV (solenoid), the cam sprockets or the oil delivery itself (clogged oil line/foreign material). - Recommend Installing new OCV (x2) and Inspection/Clean during install."

 

Basically, the car drives fine at low speeds and low rpm's but under load misfires. The boost leak at the turbo inlet that was mentioned above has been fixed but the OCV's haven't been replaced. The shop that I brought it to is pretty certain the catalytic converter is blocked up and that's what's causing the misfire's. I found a catalytic converter for sale that came off a 05 lgt, is there any reason to suspect that it wouldn't bolt onto my 06?

And I purchased it!

 

Great car so far, driving really well. Innovative Tuning will be fixing up a few small issues, and tuning some new maps for me. I'd like to go a bit more conservative for the tune, focus on drivability and reliability. Looking to have an MPG map, daily fun map, and reasonable performance map.

 

Now, to find a way to replace the rear-driver outer door handle without spending $300...

 

Great looking grille and front bumper kit in the pics there. Do you know what kind they are or was it from the previous owner?

I have an 06 spec.b #77 located in Beverly, Ma.
