Renegade swappers! some quick Q's..., possible swap... Options

[RS22b]

This is for all you Renegade guys.

Im thinking of selling my basically newely built race motor for my 914 and getting a wrx swap in there. From what i have seen on the Renegade site i realize i dont need all the $7200 worth of stuff to get this thing to be a reality and goin in my car.

I also dont see too many pics of thier so called options installed on the cars. I would like to see some pics of ppl's setups so i can get an idea of what i will need to do or not do as far as those options go. Im sure if i talked to them they would say that i need that stuff (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

Also does thier kit come with a wiring harness or is that something that i will have to build?

thx.

thanks plymouth for all the info.

Im just trying to figure out what i really want to do. I love my new motor that was just built but i really need something more reliable with such weather differences here in the NE.

No problem, let me know if you have any more questions. Judging by your list of cars it looks like you would have no problem working around a subie engine! I just bought a couple '07 Legacy GT's, Subaru really makes a great car!

Yeah! me = done about 50 or so subaru swaps and counting! I have 2 more STi swaps scheduled over the next 3 months. Of course all these swaps are Subaru to Subaru and i would love to try out a Subaru to 914 swap just for shear cost of repairs and reliability. I might even try and do the tranny swap as well and just get it full Subaru!.

This is about all the extras you will need to get a wrx into your 914 except the shiftrod (also sold by renegade), cooling system, and of course the conversion kit. I built my own wiring harness for my car (pain in the ass), Renegade will modify one for you, or I think BJ went with an aftermarket unit.
I used to work for renegade and actually designed most of the subie kit, all of the pieces pictured are available through renegade, prices are on their site (even though I make them (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) ) Feel free to PM me with any questions you may have.

That's pictures of the kit that's in my car (prior to shipping)! Do yourself a favor and go with the Renegade engine mounting system too.

see http://community.webshots.com/user/fat73 There's alot of pictures in there of most stuff except for the complete engine mount. I used all Renegade stuff and am glad I did. No problems after 16k miles of driving since 10/06, including a round trip Tampa-Vegas-Tampa to SEMA.
