I write this with a heavy heart to let you all know that Jeremy Starr (the second half of the S-Squared name) was killed in an auto accident on his way to the shop last tuesday night. He was driving down a 2 lane road when a truck in the oncoming lane tried to pass with not enough room and struck Je...

I got your last one today, and replied?

have you been getting my replies?

thx

hey all,
we are having bbq #2 at my shop on sat,
check the forums under events at the www.ss-ms.com site.

thx

I have put the stock stuff from a WRX onto a legacy wagon, although mine had a "coilover" kit on them so it wasnt an issue. The struts bolt up though.

hope that helps.

Nate

we needed to swap the oil line from the stock turbo to the TD05, as well as modify the water intake line to the turbo ( points in the wrong direction ) . There is a bit of moving things around to get it to fit in there, it BOLTS up but there are hoses/lines that are kinda in the way, its fine but a ...

you would want the early WRX ones if you can find them, I have a set of 520 cc injectors from one that I will most likley be getting rid of as soon as my fuel rails are ready. Problem is the injectors are side fed, which makes an issue, I can get the Blitz side fed injectors but they are not cheap. ...

From what I can see the difference being the dual solenoid can handle the higher boost settings, most likley an internal stretch or valving design difference. If you are going to run lower boost levels ( IE under 20 psi ) the single ought to be fine for you.

Nate

that is one of the best points about doing it, dunno, stil may try it , if for nothing else just to know if it can be done or not.

that is the plan, I am in the design stage right now, I am making sure to not forget about the legacy guys in my products


Nate

You have a liberty turbo? If so you have an ej20 whereas we in the us got an ej22T , I am not sure of the difference yet, still deciding if I am going to try this or not, as I am getting ready to make some fuel rails for the subies anyway.

thx.
nate

next year there *should* be a pair of s-squared wrx's , if you want to crew I am sure we could find a place for ya


Nate

yea it was fun, sat was kinda a loss though, we went to the service area, spent an hour + setting up and never even used it . Good times though, ended up hanging out with Lauglin O'Sullivan at the bar for a few hours so that was cool.

were you there as crew/racer or were you spectating?


Nate

thats a good deal, I would jump on that asap.

Nate

why not go with a vf 30?
I can get you one for the same price and in my opinion its a better turbo.

I can check with my supplier today though and find out what a 23 is going for, for some reason they left that off my sheet, got a 22 but no 23.

thx.

nate

cool, thanks josh.
none of my manuals here at the shop have it and I cant find it anywhere

Nate

believe so

anyone have a part # for an atmospheric pressure sensor? ( for turbo )

thx

ok my online manuals list the following

oil pump bolts at 56 in/lbs or 6.4 Nm
water pump bolts at 85-120 in/lbs or 10-14 Nm

hope this helps..

Nate

when I get to my shop tomorrow morn I will see if my online ( cd ) manuals have it and let you know ( if you still need it )


nate

that looks very simaler to mine when I had to change the front crank seal/cam seals/oil pump gasket. I would look into that, although its kind of involved, its not to hard if you are decent at mechanics, while in there, might as well change the t-belt and water pump too, since you have to take all t...

mile hi

do you by chance have a set of the stock SOHC heads?

thx
nate
