JDM EJ25 swap and mini build in Canadian 2011 LGT


Recommended Posts

Maybe when the STi one comes in you can take a couple side by side pics with your stock one so we can see the differences in pipe nipple angle and location.
I'm always game to take pics of nipple angles.

 

I'll post them up tomorrow !

No dice on pictures today. My old oil cooler is still on the old engine. The engine is on a skid so I had no access.

 

On the plus side I dropped off my STi cooler and my wife let it slip that she is ordering my a V style lip for my car for Christmas !

Update on the 08+ STi oil cooler.

 

The shop advised that it will not work due to the front engine mount. They would have to fab a custom coolant line for it to work on our engine.

 

My OEM cooler is supposed to be in tomorrow . Fingers crossed .

What? At most they have to cut a new section of hose. The metal pipe off the water pump snakes behind the front mount. This turns into a hose section which connects to the oil cooler. The oil cooler can be rotated a little.

Either way at least you'll have a new oil cooler.

Engine is being installed as I type this! Hopefully they will have it running today! Praying there are no more delays and that the startup goes off with an issue .

 

When I looked at the block and pistons with the heads off (should have taken pictures [emoji17]) the top of the pistons had next to no carbon and the cylinder walls had beautiful cross hatching. It looked almost new.

 

After start up they just have to install my boost gauge and wideband (too cold for me to do it now, plus no time with the new baby) and they are done !

Let’s do it
What's going on with your engine?

 

Looks like they just posted one up 2 days ago.

 

Although it looks like pictures of my engine that was posted 8 weeks ago.

 

Also- they are in Brampton, not Mississauga.
