a wiring specialties is around $1400 setup for a link plugin, std CAS and r35 coils without freight & taxes
Go a link plugin $1800-2100 (depending on where its from) add 2x Temp/pressure sensors $130ea (oil & fuel), NZefi trigger $400 (plug & play), link expansion loom $90, Wideband $400-500.

is actually a good deal for someone on a budget and could easily do it yourself to save money on labour. I would be going r35 coils while there just to get it done.

Wait til you have to do a proper fuel system with 2-3 pumps + hanger/surge + wiring( proper realys, 5mm wire)+ -8 feed line + fuel reg. That ecu wiring setup will seem cheap

Have a look at @klutched build will give you a good idea whats needed for 1000hp reliably

I thought you can’t use cam/crank trigger kit with platinum pro , might want to go with elite 2500 

You can absolutely run a crank trigger with the Platinum Pro, not as flexible with trigger patterns though. Need 12 tooth on crank / single home setup with hall effect sensors.

Thanks, can any trigger kit work with any balancer. He said I have a Ross tuff balancer and I should go with a Ross tuff trigger kit.

Are the blokes who did that fuel pump wiring (with out using relay holders and just teckscrwing through the car to hold them on, and no insulation on positive terminals on pumps ) the same guys who will make the 5k loom?

 

 

Also what is Tec screwed down to the left? Don't tell me that's fuel cell..

  • Haha 2

hang on........ is the surge tank being fed from the stock tank then an internal pump feeding to that manifold on the 2 external pumps? that inline filter is filtering just the lift pump to surge?

There is so much reference material out there these days to setting up very tidy fuel systems in any platform. If a workshop is doing all this I would be pissed.

Yeah I’m not sure man. I hate not being a mechanic. New to all of this. It appears I need to do some reading hahaha. 
 

all I know is that the bloke that Owned the car said something about it was set up for staged fuel or something

    • You're not the first person that's said that about this car lol. A Touring wagon GT in Spark yellow mica would be the dog's danglies 😆 I will keep an eye out for a future purchase for sure. The seats are almost like the OEM Recaros... electric adjustment for fore/aft and tilt movements except reclining.   
    • Yes!! I love these! It's a shame its not the wagon though!   Thank everything that's holy that it doesn't have the interior of the Aussie delivered ones. Those seats are so much nicer.  
    • I'm both sorry and thankful that you do that. 
    • 2001 BE5D Subaru Legacy B4 RSK (3rd gen) EJ208 (pink injector) Twin Turbo 280PS 5-speed manual Full time 4WD "RSK" grade which means all of the above LQC option which means stock rear spoiler  I got it primarily to export to someone outside Japan who was interested. These BE5 Legacy B4 RSKs are going through a bit of a resurgence right know in Japan as they are one of the few cars from the "turbo, manual, RWD/4WD, 280hp gentleman's agreement era" cars that don't require stupid money to purchase. Which for some people might be a good opportunity to get as a base for restoration. If I can't find anyone to purchase it I will certainly be doing that myself over the long term. Why? Because it's properly fast in stock form, handles well enough for a GT sedan, there's still enough aftermarket and (if you can wait a while) genuine part support to make it a restoration candidate (<-- that will only get worse over time so it's a case of do it now or choose get a BL5 4th Gen). Mechanically it's fine, has only 89,200kms on the odometer. The problem with this car is that the body and exterior trims are weathered from at least the last 10 years being parked outdoors. I'm the 3rd owner, the first owner was the one that had it for 14 years and barely drove it, had a low-speed front impact (which didn't damage anything behind the radiator support) and got it fixed and sold it. The 2nd owner put most of the kms on it and parked it outside for the last 10 years, hence the door rubbers have seen better days but if you overlook those cosmetic details, it presents pretty nicely. There is some minor rust on the LH rear wheel arch which I'll have looked at too at some stage.  Also as you'd expect from a car this age, the clear top coat is gone, leaving a satin finish on the roof.  Mechanically it's fine (as you would expect from a car with less than 100K kms) but the steering does feel slightly vague around the centre position at higher speeds. So first on the list is to get the steering rack bushes looked at. There's also the Lock button on the remote which doesn't work, but the Open button does.... it means that the anti-theft system thinks it's always open? It seems like if you open the car and don't start the engine within 3 mins or so the anti-theft kicks in again without any beeps or signals. So if you got to start it after that, it won't. You have to push the open button again. That's how I understand it anyway. Just a small irritation but not a big problem to sort out. There's only one mod, the Wangan SPL muffler. Just a tad louder than stock. It's a really good mod for those who don't want to wake the neighbours but still want to hear a more prominent unequal length header EJ20 sound. Anyway I hope to get all those things done eventually, that is unless someone wanted to import it to their country from Japan (where I live). I'm open for negotiations as I really would like a Skyline... but this will definitely suffice in the meantime 🙂 *Disclaimer: This is how I picked it up from the dealer, minus the stuff on the back seat. I haven't cleaned the engine bay or done a thorough exterior clean, aside from spray painting the wipers. 
    • Wow, even with the Audi logo centre caps. I love OEM wheel mismatches.
