Thanks rich like the web site by the way. Tell me about it dont think there's going to be much left at all as im planning on raising engine and box and moving forward to gain some ground clearance, shame really but never mind deffo gonna be worth it.

What engine management do you plan to use with all those mods?

Will you be cutting through the torsion bars?

The megan headers are quite low, are you modding them for more ground clearance?

Not sure about engine management yet hadn't thought that far ahead yet are subaru ecu's interchangeable between models? could possibly use a later model type or an sti.

Yeah gonna cut tosion bars out strenghten the chassis in the center and use a uniball set up from MBT which will do away with torsion bars.

Ive offered the header up to the engine and it doesnt seem to hang much lower than the sump so think ile see how it goes on the trial build.

ECUs seem to be interchangable but only if same year or very close... ie 93-96, 97-98 etc etc If you have a 97 this is probably one of the worst to go for as there isn't that much aftermarket support or tuning options, I think you will have to go aftermarket...

Got started mocking the bug up over the past month.

Chopped my fire wall out.

Mounted 944 arms.

Built up a motor and gearbox to get all mountings and body mods sorted.
