Hey guys, I ran across a Version 8 ECU (a 580). We plugged it in tonight to an EJ207 swapped 04 WRX and it stated the car and ran fine. RomRaider accessed it with no trouble. Looking to get around $350 shipped. I just thought there might be some interest in this thread.

Thats a question you should be asking the vendor. The ecu probably works but you should ask if the harness has been tested or is just simply cut from the donor car. It could be as useful as a paperweight at the moment, and waiting for you to salvage the plugs.

from my understanding the avcs wires plug into 2 seperate plugs in the engine bay and you can swap the tvg wires over to take care of each side and i would only need 4 shielded wires to go from the engine bay to the ECU. This "avcs harness" should atleast let me run the wires from the engine bay to the ECU correct? |

I paid 3500 for my v8 complete motor with downpipe/top mount and ECU. This was from JDM Racing Motors.
I dont see any reason to go with anyone else. They shipped it out on a monday and I had it by thursday. |

wais quoted me $3500 shipped as well. sent me this video for compression test. it does not actually show any serial numbers during the video. should i worry this is a way to dupe me into believing this motor has good compression? http://imgur.com/a/y3Bpg Its seeming like robert at jdm racing motors is doing the best job. has included the most complete information but like some of you have said he was selling v8 for $3500 shipped now its $4000. he blames the cost increase on the 50k they have spend on customer support/small claims. i have the email if anyone wants to read it.

We have since replaced cam gears, and replaced both rear cam sensors with new units from ia performance. tuner originally indicated avcs was functioning. Going to have it re-tuned tonight and log avcs. Anything specific we can grab to help with this diagnosis? The only thing we haven't replaced is avcs solenoids. They were removed and cleaned. I was thinking of pulling them and swapping banks since we get p0390 on bank 2 (driver side) only. like stated above under 1200rpm cel comes on, over it it goes out immediately but only when warm (assuming when water temp comes up). car idles fine and drives fine. Could there be an issue with the ia performance wiring kit? a short someplace that would explain this. I've only ever seen one other car 02 sti v. 7 as well indicate same issue on a different forum, no resolution was found. we checked oil pressure when car is running and it checked out fine. any help would be appreciated. |

Do you get the CEL constantly if you unplug the solenoid on just that one bank?
I'd try the swapping solenoid theory and see if it moves with it to help narrow down the possibility of a bad solenoid. Have you tested for a short on those specific wires on the IA Performance kit? I think that would be pretty easy and also help eliminate another possibility. Ben |

quick question. i thought i saw the answer but i just want to be sure.
i have an 06 wrx that i blew the motor in. i have a line on a ver7 sti long block. emmissions arent much of an issue for me what im wondering about is, if i use my manifold, and ascioated engine wiring and sensors along with my ecu will i have any issues beyond getting it tuned? ie do some of the sensors not swap over, avcs solenoids not responding to the ecu ect. physical differences in sensor placement ect. |

The engine is not compatible with your 06 wiring and ECU. Sorry. You would have to swap the wiring harness and ECU to the older style car such as 02 wrx.

Why do you keep telling people this. Its not true. These motors can and have been run on 32-bit USDM cars with success, with some modification to the intake cam and sensor system of course.

Because it is not compatible. If you take the JDM ENGINE and ECU, it wont run in the 06 WRX, The JDM ECU does not fit ANY of the wiring.
What you are speaking of is taking a US ECU, swapping to US D25 heads or B25 heads or swapping the intake cams and sensors over into the JDM heads, Then you have a hodge podge of crap thown together with mis matched cams that does not run correctly. The man was asking about putting an EJ207 engine into his 06WRX. This are further complicated with his 06 WRX. The 06 and 07 WRX where a unique ECu with a seperate Drive by wire processor. Subaru only used this for the two years before it was changed back. As far as taking an EJ207 engine, correct JDM ecu and fitting it to his 06 WRX, the only option is to swap the wiring harness. This has been done before many times. I worked on one exactly like this recently and is the correct way to swap the engine in. C |

Thats a forester with a V9 motor with US camshafts and sensors. NOT a JDM EJ207 engine with JDM ECU. Its a hybrid of a US and JDM engine with US ecu.

The modifications are minor to use the USDM intake cams and sensors. They really are. And the USDM STi intake cam is nearly identical to the EJ207 V8 intake cam so in reality, there is no mismatched cams (the USDM EJ255/257 intake cams have very slightly higher lift, but their duration is the comparable.
So basically, the end result is an EJ207 in a 32-bit car with AVCS functioning. No one said you need to use the stock EJ207 ECU. We know that won't work. |

And we're saying it can be done with a little work. If you like challenges and are a technical person, this shouldn't pose a problem and the results should be neat. |
