So I installed the bee r limiter the other day. its pretty sweet makes some crazy flames when hitting rev limiter. I hooked up the launch control to my clutch and also to a switch. If I want to do flat foot shifting or launch I can and if I want to just make some noise flick the switch and bang bang lol.
I have been debating doing a battery relocation to the trunk but seeing that I hate losing space and didn't want to have it be in the way if I decided to haul some stuff back there I started looking into a smaller battery option. I got an odyssey pc680 with the hold down bracket. Its mocked up underneath where the jack tool normally goes and with a little cutting to the foam, some rib nuts, and its perfectly where I want it. I am waiting on some other parts to come in like remote terminals the brackets and of course the time to pull the interior apart and move redo the wiring. I also have been searching for quite sometime to relocate or have a smaller washer reservoir. I picked up one for a camaro. its a custom aluminum piece but I should be able to make it work and hopefully finally be happy with it. I came across a deal for some 275/40 tires for pretty cheap. they were brand new so I scooped them up. I thought it wouldn't make as of a big deal having the added side wall height but it did and after test fitting I definitely need to go with the 30s like I originally planned. Atleast I got a good look at how its going to turn out and I was pretty much drooling. I plan on picking some tires up soon once I get paid and when I get some time doing the flares. Ill try to keep this a little more updated but I have been crazy busy so it sucks not having time for the subie BEE*R Battery relocation |

worked on the battery relocation some more today. The trunk is completely wired up and the feeders are pulled up into the bay. I am waiting on 2 terminals blocks to come in supposedly tomorrow.
The new washer reservoir is installed and I also installed a fuel pressure gauge post filter. Once I get the car rewired ill be able to test it out. In other news my buddy is moving or Portland and I am going to buy his 02 Fozz. Its lowered on some sti suspension but needs some work. I am only paying $750 so I plan on just making it a reliable daily. He smashed a deer with it so it needs a fender and a door. Eventually Ill pick it up but for now ill just be rocking it as is till I find the parts in the color I need. Ill post up pics of the car when I pick it up in a week or 2. |

Any vids with the bee r? I've bee looking at them for years but they can be pretty tough on your turbo. What wiring guide did you use?

No vids so far of the Bee R. I have only used it a few times and after messing with the setting you can really shoot some serious flames and its louder then an ak47. I know its got to be terrible for the turbo and cats if you have them. I don't so I am only a little concerned about the turbo. Since I got the car all together last year. I always get smoke when I warm start it. I believe its my turbo seals so I think the turbo is going to crap out eventually anyways. I don't plan on using the launch control until I go 6 speed so I won't be using it that much. This is the best write up I found. I went a step further and soldered all my connections instead of using vamp taps or something like that. http://www.wrxtuners.com/forums/f92/...harness-33470/ |

Finished the Battery relocation today. I went to start it after getting it all together and blew fuse right out. 60A was no good so I picked up 150A Breaker from auto zone and that seems to be good enough for now. I think that with the wire length and the small odyssey battery it might not work out. Starting the car it was cranking pretty slow but did start. I will have to see how it goes in the next couple weeks or so to decide if I need to start looking at other solutions or maybe dual odyssey batteries. I don't want the battery to be in the way thats why I chose the smaller option but ill figure it out.

Ordered agency power fuel rail kit, have the v7 long runner manifold and aps 3" hard inlet. I had the inlet and intake manifold powder coated wrinkle black. I plan on taking the car off the road in about a month to do both valve cover gaskets powder coat the covers, install 2 cam seals and then swap out the intake manifold, fuel rail kit, and the aps inlet.
At that time I should have the new tires and will probably start the wide body |

Installed singular motorsports hood louvers today. It was pretty fun I opted to install them on top of the hood instead of the bottom to go a little better with the ks tech delete. I love how it turned out!
The other day I Added lips onto my lips lol. I used the garden edging stuff from HD. I have made lips in the past with this stuff but I found a new product that is a lot easier to work with. I picked up some apr mirrors on the cheap. I Wasn't sure how I would feel about them but I like it. I have all my parts I need to do some upkeep/ upgrades on the motor. I just need to get a set of Valve covers I picked up powder coated wrinkle black. I also Picked up a new daily from my body. its an 02 fozz. IT needed some love. I got it running great and swapped out 2 doors a fender and the trunk lid since they all had damage. Its a great run around car but has the dreaded center diff wine. I am going to pick up a trans at some point and swap it out. |

It has been a very long time since I've updated this build thread but a ton has changed! still working on it and just got done swapping in 05 sti drivetrain including brembos, flares, wheels, gutted interior, tubbed rear, race seats and harness. Custom bash bar w/ bumper cut. but I will go into more details when I actually have time to do a detailed description but for now here are some exterior shots!
