    MRT Performance Your workshop seems like my dream place to work, it's a massive shame you're not in Auckland NZ

    4:42 Those are the cam gears that make up the AVCS (active valve control system) :D
    In this case, as he said, is a dual-AVCS engine. Not all Subaru engines have dual AVCS, some have single AVCS and some don't have AVCS at all.

    I'm hoping you got into this detail on every stage of the build and install and all main components?are you doing a rotated turbo install and maybe reverse inlet manifold?

    Got a 13 WRX that is due for the timing belt job. This is a stock engine but I don't want to cut corners on this job. I have had the Gates kit recommended, but I have also seen some negative comments about it here on You Tube. Any recommendations you might make would be gratefully received.

    Aren't both OEM bolts and ARP nuts 12pt not 16pt vs 6pt and 8pt? If they were 16pt a special socket would be required thereby making it more difficult to assemble?

    thanks very informative, would you be able to do a video on the benefits of short block vs long block?

    • @thedragonreborn7444
      @thedragonreborn7444 7 років тому

      Short block is just the engine block and long block is full assembly with heads. I'm not sure what your trying to ask.

    @bretth3224 8 років тому +1

    Can you specify what bore size you want with these blocks? As I was looking for an option with a 97mm bore

    Love the gold paint. Looks reflective. Never seen a block painted that color, except for some early Jag heads. What brand/color is it?

    • @mmababy
      @mmababy 5 років тому +1

    Which head gasket brand are you using for this build, and do you need to torque it tighter than normal?

  • @BFE08STI
    @BFE08STI 8 років тому

    I saw some pics of this block, and it had hex head bolts on the mains as well?
    And I bet it has got pinned mains ?

      @BramBiesiekierski 8 років тому +1

    You said stock Subaru head studs aren't reusable, but are the ARP one reusable??

    • @MRTPerformanceAustralia
      @MRTPerformanceAustralia  8 років тому +7

      OMO .SOUND Yes. ARP head studs can be reused as long as they are in good condition with no defects.

    • @Mondoough
      @Mondoough 8 років тому

      MRT Performance Great, thank you. Building a forester xt, but it's nowhere near as bad ass as this build you're doing.

    • @1337bubs
      @1337bubs 8 років тому

      this is an very high end build. that short block alone is probably close to 10k

    • @alycestapleton
      @alycestapleton 8 років тому

      OMO .SOUND well arp bolts /stud kits cost over 300 each kit i sent 600 plus on arp bolts because there for a fj20 special order from the states and for that price you would think they would be reusable. dnt people know anything

    billet block but no dry sump??

    • @Liamv4696
      @Liamv4696 8 років тому

      Brian upgraded wet sump/pickup/oil pump works fine I guess :) dry sump adds another like five grand to the build.

    • @MRTPerformanceAustralia
      @MRTPerformanceAustralia  8 років тому +5

      As this is a street car build. The customer opted to stick with a wet sump setup. While beneficial in some regards, a dry sump would be overkill in this instance and adds unnecessary complexity.

    • @TheCrazySquirell
      @TheCrazySquirell 6 років тому +1

      The owner is an idiot who bought a billet block yet told the shop to keep everything as stock as possible.

    • @Yvaneify
      @Yvaneify 6 років тому +2

      Late reply but the owner is definitely not stupid when he can mange to afford a build like this. Am I right?

    • @TheCrazySquirell
      @TheCrazySquirell 6 років тому +1

      @Javier Gonzalez Dude gtfo. Who the fuck builds a billet block for anything other than a crazy high performance car? He would have been better served spending that money on a built closed deck block.

  • @richjones8696
    @richjones8696 5 років тому +3

    As a factory certified Subaru technician, factory Subaru head bolts are absolutely reusable. They are not torque to yield like many people think they are. The reason Subaru uses angle location on the torque sequence is for more even clamping load.

    What's up with the gold block. It gave me an erection. Is this anodized or what?
    Is there color options for these builds

    • @MRTPerformanceAustralia
      @MRTPerformanceAustralia  8 років тому

      damberson4698 Willall Racing offer the billet block in a raw or anodised gold finish.

    The jerks at the local Subaru service desk said "Yes, re-use the factory head bolts. We always re-use them". Guess how that turned out.
