Nice to see people in Canada build some awesome cars. Btw where do you get your lines and fittings from?

Damn, excellent work. You said constructive criticism is cool soo you should build a sub enclosure into the rear seat delete for more room and a cleaner look. Great car otherwise!

Fittings are mostly from a place in my hometown called CEP Automotive, all the ones from this summer are from MOPAC. Im hoping if I do another project I'll have a better handle on fitting estimation, this swap was such a guess, everything from size to thread pitch seems to be different, hence why there's so many in some places.

I agree totally, always room for improvement, I don't have much experience with custom enclosures, but your right the box protrudes far too much. I'll look into that before this summer. Thanks for the comments guys, I'm super stoked how the pictures turned out, and yes there are individuals/ shops doing awesome work up here.. although sadly its hard to find these days.

Back for another big update after not posting much of anything last season. The car is reliably street tuned and waiting for some time on the dyno to dial in the last bit, but honestly it feels great to have something properly quick to hoon around in. Last year I changed out the garbage Megan coilovers for a set of ultra legit KW Variant 3's with Clubsport tophats to allow for front camber adjustment. These are night and day better for improving the ride and handling. I have also moved up in the world and acquired an 07 Legacy Spec.b as my daily driver.

In the last few weeks we tackled gasket leak issues on the intake side, redoing the complete cooling system, complete overhaul of the fuel system, promoting longer life on the chinese suspension arms until I can replace, proper alignment on the car and removing all of the Greddy devices to run everything via the Haltech. After a bit of street tuning we realized the traction on the Falken tires is terrible and dangerous, so I'm using a buddies Mickey Thompson Street Radials 275/40/R17 on Imuls R5 17x9.5 wheels.











Every thread anti-seized and all joints have been siliconed




Ugh..terrible idea not to use heat resistant tape

All for now, will update again soon with some better video and pics. Hopefully there are some guys still around from the beginning to see where the progression has taken this car.

Quick question how much did getting your car clean as f*** altogether cost you up to date?

^No one asks that question, plus no one ever fully keeps track of it. Its just depressing. Just understand that he could have bought a brand new car.

Everything looks great. I love how it turned out. Everything looks like it was done right. As mentioned by someone else, I'm not a fan of how your subs were done. I'm not saying I don't like the rear seat delete, or the subs. I'm not a fan of how open it looks. I think you should have made a box the height of the subs and extended it from side to side so there aren't open areas next to the subs. The openness looks awkward like you just have two subs sitting on a bench. Other than that though, I LOVE everything else.

Lots, and there are things that still need to be replaced or added even without building the engine. As much as a new vehicle. And actually, I have fully kept track of it, start to where it is now.

Thanks for the input dude. In all honesty, it was a pretty juvenile phase haha. Much like when I was 16 and had underglow/interior lighting. I have completely removed the subs and have no ambitions of putting any back in, in fact I plan on shedding more weight for next season. Since the car got tuned to a driveable/fast state I haven't felt the need to turn music on once. As for the rear delete, this is how it sits right now, but I am playing with the notion of doing a carbon fiber Origin delete as well.

Well gents, back for another season. I have a few small jobs I'm taking care of before the car hits the dyno in a few weeks. Mostly focusing on optimizing the current setup but adding a few new parts. Upping the fuel system from 850CC injectors and 290LPH Denso to 1000CC and 450LPH Walbro.



Setup at World of Wheels 2015 in February







Going to town with the Reflect-A-Gold to keep the heat in check.
