JDM ACC w/double din for dual ACC LGT!!!

[pablo1b]

Well, only US and Australia AFAIK get 2.5 GT. Arguably the best motor in the lineup.

 

A bit off topic, but the US 2.5GT specB only has 243HP, and the 2.0GT specB jap ver has 280HP, both having the same fuel economy stat. And the US 07 legacy is like the 06 everywere else in the world legacy were they have a new design. Pick any country, say germany:

True, but obviously 2.5GT has more potential. I am sure 2.0GT is a nice car, especially given it's twinscroll turbocharger, but we should not complain much that we get 2.5GT instead.

 

And JDM 2.0GT AT has 260 hp...

subscribe..... this will save me from having to install 3 seperate controlers!

well if this doesnt work out there is only one thing to do that is get a rhd legacy with a 2.5gt swap

how much for the entire USDM 2.5i set-up?

It won't work in the GT.

Guess it's AVO's single din fascia vs........?..lol...

I dont see why this wouldnt work.... Im sure you'd have to make the hazard button reach over there. but Im sure the contols are the same. I think the main issue is fitment, which it seems to be pretty close. I do remember seeing single din conversions from where the stock HU went in USDM cars, while the units were bought for JDM cars

[ScoobyLife]

I think it's going to work!

[Puckman]

anyone get in the unit and test this out yet? if it works and it's just fitment that is an issue, nothing a little custom fabrication won't be able to solve!

Right, but did TDC actually recieve it from Japan yet to test it out?

They're till recovering from SEMAfestivus, the automotive holiday:lol:

[leggtnut]

I just had my HU out working on some wireing on my GPS/XM mount and noticed that the hazard switch wire will reach to either side of the HU w/out a problem.

[chikmagnet]

also another idea is just use the jdm climate control section from the rhd car

and then use a 2.5i radio trim bezel

You've got manual vs. electronic issues there.

correct

[Puckman]

correct

 

AWESOME!!!! Really looking forward to this one

[psucaptainkickass]

That would be so tight. I have long put off doing the stereo in this car because of the problems with the stocker. Hopefully this turns out well
