Repainted, again.

Here are some latest pix from Jeff. Repainted, again. I must say the aftermarket fiber hood (unknown jap brand) really survived after more than 5 years of daily usage. As far as the intercooler, now it looks like a beast that hasnt had any meals for a while.

Jeff's Intercooler Installation

I have re-added Jeff on the write-ups list though he has been out from the scene for quiet sometime i thought by updating his last mod could motivate him to do more things at his own pace. Jeff has been away due to long haul working hours and also a father to his newborn baby. Basically all the toys has been put in place like the new turbo, used evo intercooler and new engine stainless steel piping system.

With the new intercooler, he had to scrap the old painted bumper with another spare Mitsubishi bumper with a PU lip attached to it. My last meeting with Jeff was quite fascinating as i was given a chance to drive the car with an entirely new setup.

The brand new turbo spooled fast, the power response was good and i can feel the car kept going from 1st gear to the 4th gear. I couldnt pull to 5th as traffic interrupted my way. I went for 3 good laps and the car felt lighter on the butt and traction was another issue. Overall the car was quick and responsive for a normal street setup.

I believe Jeff could do better if he decides to run on his chosen EMS, better performance street tyres and maybe a branded LSD to put down that "not so powerful" power to the ground which could be lethal if it catches a good grip. For current power-hungry fans, Jeff setup could be probably be on the intermediate level compared to current modding scene.

For 2012 i have no idea what Jeff has plan for his car but i hope a few things more could satisfy his requirements and weekend fun. I also heard he mentioned about buying a VTEC. All the best Jeff.

Jeff's New Toys Part III

Jeff just puchased a brand new AR50 turbo and a used EVO 7 intercooler for his new setup. Stay tuned.

Jeff's Fuel Line Project

Jeff recently upgraded his fuel line system inside his engine bay. Steel braided hoses, AN fittings, custom fuel rail and a new fuel pressure regulator. There are many ways to do this as long you know the length and measurements, then it would be easier for you to find the combo settings.

Jeff's 4G93T Top Overhaul

After Jeff noticed my recent top overhaul, he decided to do his before things get worsen. As you can see from the photos, a burnt head gasket and a chipped crankshaft pulley is justifying enough for the car to be serviced and fixed.

Since he had to remove the head, Jeff decided to install the ARP studs especially when he is addicted to boost. He also recently did a steel braided fuel line system but he has not sent me the photos yet.

Jeff's After The Repaint

I cant remember which Subaru model paint code i sms-ed to Jeff and here is the latest repainting and touch-up results. With all the stone chips, door dings and minor dents, Jeff decided to give another round of paint. The fiber hood has been fixed. The intercooler piping has been repainted black. All the car needs is a good round of polish and wax, hopefully.
