Whats up JDMU,
Well i have some new updates. Sat i received the last following items i need for my build, Started wrenching on the motor sunday and was able to take it off and put in the new motor. No i ran into some issues while putting in the motor I forgot to order me my CTR Crank Pulley belt and I just realized that my throttle bracket was way to big to put in the skunk2 manifold and saw that the IAT sensor would not fit with that one so i had to order a type R throttle body and throttle bracket:eek:nfire: I will have this motor ready and fired up by this week. here are some pictures... Enjoy











Took a break and decided to take couple picture of my boys 2009 Subaru WRX

your build is soo gnarly, nice work man! just wondering if your motor was balanced because if not i wouldn't use that N1 crank pulley, it does bad things to good motors if you know what i mean...

Yeah! Motor was balanced, After i installed the crank pulley i saw that the belts were small, so i cam online and did some researching and i did read a couple threads about the CTR N1 crank pulley not being a good choice so i dont know maybe ill switch to the stock one but im still going to do some more researching

if you send a stock one to Inlinefour.com they can lighten it and shave off the accessories and, balance it. that way it retains that rubber dampening material!

Okay guys here are some updates
I got the car running, made a huge mistake by letting someone make me a custom chip for the p28 shit ran RICH like a mother fucker. after driving for less then 100 miles a valve almost dropped . Luckily i got lucky and the valve got caught in the valve guide. Car was towed home and the next day it was disassembled and notice that valve guide was all messed up and not aligned. Brought the head to the machine shop they fixed the job for no cost but they told me i needed to tune my car asap. So i got the head back on and brought it down to Digital Auto And Sound for a street tune. Car seems to be running fine now put about 761 miles on it and nothing has happened i do need to re-adjust the valves since there ticking a little bit and go back for a final TUNE---

Currently i have the stock headers back on due to the adjustable test pipe flanges not matching he header. But I have ordered new Adjustable Test Pipe, and Complete Rebuild kit with carbon synchros for the b16 tranny. Looking to buy tomorrow a MSD 6Al-2

Current Mods still needed

Final Dyno Tune
ACT HD Clutch
ACT Light Flywheel
LSD
