I just picked up this car tonight. It actually has quite some history behind it. A friend of mine, Wazzy bought this car a few years back. It was a complete piece of shit. He paid about $400 bucks for it and it was on its last leg. With a lot of time and A LOT of money, he got it to the point where it is today. This is my first boosted car, so I'm new to the world of boost. I've driven this car coutless times in the past so I'm somewhat use to the feel of having boost, but its nice to finally be able to call it mine. As sad as I am to say this, he has kind of stepped out of the Subaru game for awhile. I bought his Legacy since he got a new turbo awd car (build is in progress, I'm sure you all will see it soon). I would like to take a minute to thank Wazzy for giving me a good deal on the car! Here are a few quick specs EJ20R converted to single turbo Rotated TD04 Greddy boost controller D2Racing coilovers STI V3 5speed JDM transmission STI V7 seats FMIC Megasquirt ECU Ford EDIS ignition MSD coil pack; Mustang GT wireset 252 upgraded cams Prosport Gauges WRX wheels WRX brakes I'll have it on the dyno sometime in the next few weeks to see what kind of numbers I get and to get a good tune on it. It recently had the turbo changed, so its running on the old tune right now with the boost controller set down to 4psi I do have a lot of plans for the car, and I think I have a very good starting point for a lot of power. I'll be looking into a 6 speed STI trans sometime in the future, along with an EJ257 block. But for now, the current setup will work just fine. I don't want to jack Wazzys pictures, so I'll be posting my own pics. I didn't get the car until after dark tonight, so I don't have the best pictures in the world yet....More pics to come very soon I'm open to any thoughts, suggestions, blah blah blah
It had been taken off. Thats why a TD04 is on it now and it needs a new tune. He took off the gt30r to sell it and put a stock turbo back on. I didn't like the lag on the gt30r anyways.
S4, fuck yeah. i take it over subaru any day. Too bad i couldnt find one in my price range when i was looking for one. what year?
We went and picked up his 01 S4 lastnight. I'm sorry, but nothing could ever take place of a Subaru in my eyes.
i couldnt afford a newer one, so i picked up a 2001 S4-- still amazing fun... chip intake exhaust, ill be close to 400 hp lol
The S4 is a sharp car, and it has a decent amount of power. Personally, I'm strictly Subaru. I don't like German cars. I'm not saying that its a piece of shit or anything (because its not)....VW just isn't my thing.....Neither is BMW or Benz. Wazzy loves the S4 though, and I'm glad he found something that he is happy to replace the Subaru with. Both Wazzy and I are better off now. Couldn't ask for more lol
Yeah I sold the red 97 GT to a good friend of mine. I was going to keep it, but he really wanted it and money talks lol Sent from my Android powered HTC HD2
Here is a little update : Got it back (some time ago) from the tune. Everything is fixed and running great. 230 / 229 hp/tq @ 15psi Here are a few random pics of me adjusting ride height and rear camber at home.
