ur in good shape steven121

 

i still beg the differ. and you wont break the trans if you dont drive like an idiot. it seems like more work to do a clutch on a lancer than the wrx and ive done both.

steven whens that engine going in?????????

 

wait..... WTF u just say JRRR..................................... clutch swap on a lancer is MAD easy... wrx... no so much.. wtf u talk about.. drop cradle.. 12+4 bolts.... Done....wrx.... same + 1 pressure bolt.. ummm.. not NEAR as easy... (i have literallly pulled 7 STI motors, and hate dealing with eh tranas on the, there terrible)

now if ur doing all the work at a shop, i could see a wrx being easierwith the right tools.. but for an average guy with basic tools.. Lancer(or evo) is much easier to work on.. Exspecially with clutch job, then a wrx(or any other car with a boxterstyle motor)



Any =yes.. i am drunk. :P

 

theres your problem you dropped the trans......so much easier with either moving the engine forward or pulling all together....

 

Ummm.... droppin the trans and swappin a clutch takes.. i donnowith correct tools.... 3-5hrs tops...... not even half a days job



(disclaimer, still drunker)

 

It will go in as soon as my friend let's me use his cherry pickers to get the motor out probably 2 weeks at the latest do i Need transmission fluid when I pull out the axles or will it be ok

 

jst drop tat (bish) on the groound.. and lift the car up.. ( LOL )

(did tat once)
LOL

ur missin out on the upper psi gains...

Demon.... please explain how to do this without breaking the motor or even possibly lifting it back up to the car? please explain how to do this or if someone can explain.

 

well if ur going from from the bottom..all u need is a jack..butits a pain in the but. just go rent a cherry picket for like 12$ from local tool place.

 

Dayum today is not a good day.... took off the forge wastegate and putting on the 19 pound spring so I can get everything prepped for my car and I saw a crack on my manifold with the first 2 runners near the weld to the flange.

I just emailed speedcorps to see if they have any extra manifolds and if not. My turbo journey might just come to an end. I cant find anyone that sells the manifolds, and no one hear well attempt to fix custom crap because they are held reliable. I will post up pics later today trading out this spring real quick

 

Did you ever brace your mani Steven? The one I got from Zulu is still holding strong no cracks anywhere that I can see.

 

thats not exactly a custom manifold.. thats a machine built piece outa poor material. big difference from a custom built turbo manifold outa higher quality stainless individually welded together.
u probably should look into having a custom piece built by a local fabricator, it wont be cheap. But if it ever cracks, they will repair it, and it will be out of better material and shouldnt have any issues.
i parked my car yesturday. got some fixxin and upgrading to do, so my car might be down for the next couple weeks. cracked intake manifold needs to be repaird, and also need to get my coilovers, but im just poor right now. lol

 

What kind of brace is suggested for that Speed Corps manifold?

 

No retarded person at speed corps achoo Keith bless me promised people the bracket but never did. Justin now has to suck up the cost because of a bad partner but people will be people I guess. justin is sending me another one because my warranty was not up

 

how long is the warranty?
