Should be firing her up tomorrow sav, but I don't have gaskets for the headers:( Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

its all good @savage bulldogs i was reading the loom incorrectly, injector are all in order and the loom is all correctly pined at the harness/ecu, tomorrow ill be taking that abc chip out and burning it!

if you aint already brought speakers, check out infinity kappas!

welcome to the forum, here is an immobilizer diagram for both turbo/nonturbo models and this is specifically for LHD: if you give me the specific year i should be able to provide you with the exact pin for your ecu, provided the ecu is stock!

thanks man this helped a ton

Yeh it's UK version but the question is, why isn't the pins matching Vs the 1998 wiring diagram ? According to the book, I'm gonna go out with my muktimeter and try figure this out!! Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

it has the original ecu (according to the previous owner) in it, it just doesn't all plug in how it should according to the 1998 wiring diagram, thats whats worrying me (looking on google it seems 8s is the ecu for a 1998 right ;/) an example is: the yellow/red common wire in all the injector plugs is meant to connect to pin 1 but it connects to pin 4, swapping with the pin of the ignition coil :/ how could i solve this issue? (phoned the previous owner and he insisted that i was "worrying too much and its a standard loom with standard ecu"

have i got these right? and where do these go :/ and an angle from the left shock need to do these then i can go about getting the rad and intercooler on and try to fire her up (battery is on charge as we speak)

In theory, what would happen if you swapped injector connections over via the loom eg swapping injector #2 for injector #4 on the wiring/ecu side? is it detrimental? will it affect performance? could it blow an engine? The only reason im asking this is on my 8s ecu the pinouts are in different places and the injectors connect but according to the diagram; its all screwed up injector 4 Injector 3 COILPACK (looking a the engine from the top) injector 2 Injector 1

If I recall correctly I should have a starter motor lying around in the spares box! So I have you covered on that! Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

Welcome, pretty much the same thing here, trying to get a garage impreza working again :D Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

I might be able to sort you out lev, if you can get me an exact picture of the trim I may have a spare one in the garage Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

I'm jealous you can get maps by Andy forest :( welcome by the way I'm 30 miles from the dead centre of the UK! Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

Oh I brought a non-runner like !Removed! :D Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

Yeh that's the thing before it had no spark it it and couldn't hear a woosh when turned Now, without plugs it wooshes and with it wooshes like pooosh[emoji23] and then comes loose. Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

When I got the car (came with no sparks) and I turned by hand no woosh was coming, why is the woosh coming now ? Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

So everything is okay I didn't screw up? Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

so you reckon they came loose because they were only hand tightened?

Lined the cambelt up, did some manual turns and all was good in terms of alignment; proceeded to bolt everything back up. once the pulley was on, i did some manual turns and heard air coming out of the spark plug sockets (no sparks installed), this did not happen before when i was doing manual turns (no spark plugs + old belt) I hand tightened the spark plugs in and could no longer turn the engine easily, I managed to use some force and move it a little and a loud woosh came out the spark plug sockets, putting the 16mm deep socket in i noticed the spark plug loosened up and the engine was slightly easier to turn. Is this normal or did i screw something up?

I just use tarpaulin and rope, cheaper and is actually waterproof etc! Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk
