Apkarian100's 2002 MBP WRX Wagon

Yah, I wasn't looking forward to it either. It was a little bit of a bummer when after my base tune with Bren (about 275-280 whp), my clutch started to slip on anything above 15 psi.

I guess it's good that my car's making power, just to show the weaknesses in other areas of my car.

that's cool, and those are some pretty impressive numbers. I want to upgrade my clutch at some point. But I'm not looking forward to the cost!!!

Better your clutch act as a fuse then other things...

Yea, Dan knows all about that...

So I'm flopping back to this idea of using the Ebay dual projector headlights. Only difference is, I will be sourcing other projectors to install, install the cheap projectors originally found in the headlights. The headlights look like this:

I will mod them to make them look more like this:

Stay tuned for progress....

That`s cool man.

 

[Stein]

Gonna be cool.

Please don't leave the turn signals that ugly shape though

. Replace them with a single amber LED assembly, or a strip, and paint it black.

Are the projectors that come with it small enough to do an easy retrofit in GC headlights?

I will let you know when they arrive. I have a lot of ideas in my head at this point. I will be making those final decisions when the lights get here.

Some I finally got the Ebay headlights today. A couple things I noticed that will need work. The halos suck, but I wasn't planning on using them anyways:

Here's a pic of the low beam cutoff. Again, not too great, but I expected that:

Very nice!! Haven't you been waiting on this for a while? Have you bought a new clutch yet?

 

[apkarian100]

I've been waiting on the piping forever!

And yes, I finally found someone on Nasioc willing to sell me a new OEM Exedy pressure plate.

Cool that you finally got it. So does that mean you get to use the disc that you had, or did you have to get another?

 

[apkarian100]

I get to use my ACT disc.

Nice!!

As long as it's all installed right it shouldn't act up

 

[apkarian100]

You doubt your own work?

Hopefully we can meet up some time soon to get this thang installed.

It was a play on words of ACT clutch.... The last clutch I installed was an old chevy sidewayz motor thing and it works just fine. So I trust myself that I can bolt on a clutch

 

[apkarian100]

lol. Didn't catch that one at first. Ha.
