Everything came to a halt when we found out we got the wrong clutch with the pressure plate and they came in the same damn box!!! We were so close.

Looks awesome bud. Honestly the COP conversion and ej20g ecu wiring is pretty minimal and easy. Nothing to stress about. I take it you came across my write-up on converting? Definitely recommend proper crimps instead of soldering for reliability and longevity.

Had a skim over the last few pages, what a cool project, so tidy! I love the Impreza direct HLA 20G too, bloody good little motors, even with the right turbo and a stock legacy RS ECU, they pull nicely!

Correct clutch is in!! Guys at ImportImageRacing.com are great if anyone is needing parts! I am very busy this month but hope to be back at it after the 4th. Carbon Fiber hood is ordered though, thanks Lee.

Unfortunately this happened while moving the engine and a bolt popped off the chain.

I can do 25$ shipped if you tell me which one it is. Or I have an all metal set from an early legacy ej20g I could do $100 for all 4 shipped.

Correct gear, right? I have 1 or 2 more plastic ones, then the full set of metal ones. Don't plan to do a dohc swap any time soon.
