Year one with this car has been fun.

I think I'm done tinkering with the front end.

Does your tires hit the top of the wheel opening on the front when turning into a driveway entrance etc?? Mine do and its ******* up my fender lip.

fenders rolled? running camber? wheel & tire specs?

Was this from Randy? I believe I saw it when I picked up my own! Looks like they both turned out awesome.

 

Yes i think so

How involved is that if the engine is already on the car?

 

Considering all options at this point

 

Also what downpipe are you using?

 

bolts

Best to have the engine out of the car.... you can feasibly do it while the engine is in the car but.... its a tight squeeze.... we did this on my engine before we put it in the car.

 

Im using an hks catted downpipe thay came with my front clip.

 

Or... you can run a standalone (vipec, hydra, AEM) and do some wiring for the exhaust avcs, that will work too.

 

some guy with a forester did this swap and used a hydra standalone ecu. It worked for that person but i dont think his gauge cluster works. You'd have to get a racepak or some kind of custom cluster.

 

Obviously, the standalone route is expensive. But you'd have working quad avcs.

Did this swap in march. Using usdm intake manifold, engine harness and ecu. I opted to run without the exhaust avcs. To make sure i wasnt full retard on the exhaust cam, i used usdm non avcs cam gears on the exhaust cams and plugged the hole. Car runs great. Dyno tuned on a v3 cobb ap.

 

Not sure if this is what you wanna do but it worked for me.

Anybody done this swap and got tuned with an aftermarket downpipe. My results were 236/243 on the vf38 on a mustang dyno. Looking for comparable figures as all the japanese results are flywheel hp and all of the australian results dont have the vf38 mated to a 5mt. Also, Im not sure of the significance of vf38 vs td04 so im wondering about that as well.

Few friends did this swap for me. You can keep the usdm ecu and use non avcs cam gears on the exhaust side. I got tuned on an AP v3.
