Thanks again for sharing all this.

Ok, yeah it will be a little tight there.

Wow, that looks like a lot of work.....a labor of love.

I went ahead and ordered it and it does in fact fit! The mounting tabs were different, but since most of the ones on my car were gone it didn't make much of a difference, and I didn't have to cut any of them off for it to fit. I did have to use longer screws than were supplied to get the upper ...

Welcome,

The link you provided didn't work. Is it still good? Do you have another way of sharing any photos?

Can you elaborate on what the previous owner did? Did they just do a 5MT conversion?

Did you read over my conversion write-up? The wiring pins may not be exactly the same but the process ...

You may want to review this thread.

It could be bad solder joints on the HVAC control board. You can remove it and resolder

That was pretty cool to see!

Thanks for sharing Dave!

Nice to see you around here

The BBS isn't too active any more but still a lot of great info.

Why won't the EJ22E one work? The only difference is the location of the coolant temp sensors? If that's the only reason I would just extend the wiring. That would be an option if you can't find one.

I would suggest finding the connector for the key switch and jumper pins there. That would eliminate the key switch in troubleshooting it.

I watched his run and it's a pretty impressive feat considering its beginnings! It's too bad it was a short run at Pikes Peak this year.

Damen's pretty active on Facebook. Feel free to check out his posts and follow him.

Honestly, I would check the alternator. The rebuilds from the auto parts store are not very good.

You may want to see if anyone on the Facebook first gen groups has one.

Are there any codes in the ECU?

As mentioned the rails/bases of the seats are different and are not interchangeable.

I think you'll find trying to remove the seats from the bases may prove a little difficult because the recline mechanism/lever is going to be on the wrong side, and that lever is part of the plastic base trim ...

Glad you got it sorted and figured out!

Hi Michael!

Nice looking Fiat! You're always welcome to post here

I'm not 100% sure but I seem to recall that the STi had a wider track which is probably making the issue worse. other than looking for wheels with a higher offset I'm not sure what to say. How much room do you have between the tire and strut body?

Awesome! Glad you got it going.

Good deal!

I "think" you should be able to use an later model Legacy rear section driveshaft as long as it has the newer style rear diff.

Again, I think there was a crossover point in 95-96 where the Legacy transitioned from the older style diff to the newer style diffs.

Just for clarity, where is it too short? In the front section where the driveshaft goes into the transmission or into the rear diff?

Welcome to the BBS.

Agree, you should look and see if the wiring to the coolant temp sensor is still good or if the connector possibly came off the sensor. You can also check the wiring from the connector back to the ECU to ensure it's good. if all that is good then replace the sensor. They are ...

Ok, yeah I'm not sure of compatibility between the two.
