    • Things are snowballing finally and it's coming together FAST.

      WRX fully adjustable strut mounts start here:



      Paint the mount using the old strut mount for a template:



      ... and get this.





      Oh, and the LADD connectors. THIS is why y'all need them!

      • Coming along...



        We're about to get serious now. T3 flange arrived, the old BP is going for manifold/turbo/downpipe mock-up this weekend.



        Re-welded the seat so I can drive the Lemons car. Seriously.

              • Got the connectors for Don's instrument panel today. Amphenol has some good quality inexpensive sealed, latching, keyed connectors. A set of connectors is about $11 each with all the parts.

                These are AT series connectors. Some assembly required.




                This is a pdf from digikey that goes into detail about them.

                • The Amphenol looks just like the Deutsch stuff.....but that 18 position (3 row of 6) plug (AT16-18SB-K004) looks like I need a few to replace two 12s I run and one is not full.

                  Anyone looking to buy this kind of stuff, I would recommend buying 2 to 3 times the pins that you have ports for in the shells. I can't tell you how many I wasted when I redid stuff. My entire EFI harness and aftermarket gauges are sectioned for ease of use, removal, and diagnosis.

                  Also the shells like what you have posted above are also sold through MSD but are quite expensive to do the entire car in.

                        YUP. Cut the whole IHI flange off and probably 7-8* angle out. It'll help get the exhaust housing off the engine some as well. I'll leave that all up to Brooks.

                            • lmfao @ Festielago, though it will probably drag my 5.0 when up and running.

                                Dunno from a dig but it should be good for 116-120 trap speeds.

                                The motor is done until the turbo setup is built. Taped her off and now onto the odds and ends.
