I too am trying to massage an 05 WRX 2.0 Turbo into a VW based kit car. I have only just bought the engine, and am now looking for an 02 trans to shorten (with flipped internals) to complete my install.
I love this site!
I will be using an aftermarket AC system and compressor, and have a push button starter in the car.
I would like to make this build as bare bones as I can, but also using whatever is already available in the ECU and wiring system. speedo, tach, AC, etc. But obviously I wouldnt need ABS, or Airbag systems. I still need the ECU pin outs for the 05 and 04 ECU's, as well as the wiring schematics.
Any help, or links for exactly what is needed? Im new to this, but not mechanics. I have the overall design of all of this fairly figured out (basics) but any help would be great to simplify things.
Please PM me, or email me. Id like to compile a to do, or a build list in a word document to keep everything organized, then pass this on to future swappers with the conversion perversion.
Thanks
Yaughn
