Becks1818 Posted November 21, 2017 Author Share Posted November 21, 2017 I got word yesterday from the shop that the engine is being reassembled. Heads were machined, valve job was completed and the cams are installed. Today they should be pulling my old engine , installing my gauges and some other items and of all goes well I'll have her back in my hands Friday!

Becks1818 Posted November 22, 2017 Author Share Posted November 22, 2017 Peice of info that I'm sure is somewhere on this site already: JDM fifth gen GT's don't have an oil cooler. Which makes the water pump different as ours has a port to connect to the cooler. Sent from my SM-G930W8 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadow_419 Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Backorder... the bane of our cars. Facts! Surprised about the oil cooler though. I thought this was shared with other models. The pipe from the water pump towards the oil cooler, before the hose section, I'm not surprised is backordered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A_A_ron Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 The oil cooler bit is great! When I was having my timing belt and pulleys changed the shop could not find a water pump that matched. He kept saying I have an extra outlet hanging off of mine that wasn't on any of the ones he ordered. I am going to call him to tell him it's for the built in oil cooler. Great thread, congratulations on the kid, and I can't wait to see this car come together. Maybe it'll be his first car? Build Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great thread, congratulations on the kid, and I can't wait to see this car come together. Maybe it'll be his first car? The water pump for 2010-2012 Legacy Gt's is unique to those years. None of the normal turbo water pumps work because those have a barb instead of the outlet hole the 5th gen uses due to the low mount turbo.

Sent from my SM-G930W8 using Tapatalk It's a different part number because barbs are slightly differently angled but it could most likely be used. I haven't done it myself but the pictures look pretty similar and there's enough room imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the Aussie guys that went fmic put an oil or trans cooler in place of his tmic though No, the one that goes between the block and the oil filter. I remember that you were having a leak from that area. Was it just a seal, or did you replace the entire OEM cooler.

Becks1818 Posted December 1, 2017 Author Share Posted December 1, 2017 OEM oil cooler didn't come in today. I inquired about an 08+ STi oil cooler, the warehouse has 87 in stock... DAMN IT! I could have my car back already if I just ordered the STi part. I went ahead and ordered it in case the Legacy cooler is delayed again. It will be in tomorrow morning.
