2000 Subaru Legacy Wiring Harness VW Conversion 

Just started with my wiring harness, would never had known how to try this without your RU-vid channel. THANK YOU

Great video. How is this affected by the retrofit wiring kit for the instrument cluster? I have a Subaru motor in my '87 Weekender and a couple wires on the blue foil sheet shorted out and melted. My mechanic tells me that he can't figure out a way to get the check engine light to work with the retrofit wire kit. Any ideas?

Not a lot of demand for someone to invest in making these harnesses from scratch. A friend of mine put a 2.5 in a Baja Bug. He bought the adapter hardware from a company in California. They didn't offer a mod dedicated harness but gave him contact info for a guy that did them one at a time. I love how it drove when he was done. I wasn't to do the same thing but always had some other projects or lack of time.

Really helpful dude on a project I am trying to troubleshoot, cheers.

could you possibly do a k20 motor with stock wiring harness and ecu wired into a 2003 VW beetle harness?

You my friend are a genius!

Hi ,fantastic vidoes,I was just wondering what you do with the sensor grounds,are they left alone. Im trying to get a 2000 Impreza 2,5 harness to work on my 2000 2.2 Impreza and for some reason the fuel pump wont cycle and the obd2 wont connect,your input would be greatly appreciated.

I don't see the MAP sensor connection. Is that needed? Thanks so much for posting these videos!

Took me two weeks. An hour here, a half hour there. Because I didn't want to cut any wires I wasn't supposed to (did anyway). I had to (wanted to) lengthen some wires and shorten others to make them work better in the harness. Also, I didn't run a transmitter for the OBDII, and actually ran wires to the front for a ScanGaugeII. Reason: As the years roll by, the support for some sort of Apple product may disappear. If I did it again, it would probably only take me a day or two. A guide to the years/models with differences in sensors (MAS vs. MAP) or the newer atmospheric pressure sensors, would help a bit. Thankfully, I haven't had to deal with TBW issues in my application, but some will. The "spoofing module" that SmallCar sells has saved me some issues with codes. Perhaps there is a better way for the DIY'er. Thanks for doing this. Although I may be done with it, myself, many will appreciate it!

Hey I don’t see wrx turbo on your website, I have motor in line ram just trying to down size the harness HELP PLEASE

I'd love to see an air-cooled vanagon done just to show the subtle differences from start to finish between water and air cooled models of vanagon in general.

How much do you charge for a conversion

Great video. Thanks for sharing!

Do you have any stock maps for the 2000 EJ251 A11001A 0D42100605 - been looking for a while and unable to locate a base map and def for this ECU.Thanks Brad Legacy 2000 GX

hello, who scanner your used? i am have a subaru legacy 2000 2.0 and elm327 (blue) not working....

Are you able to do a harness from an 08 WRX? I pan swapped a Renault and would like to do a Subaru swap.

Knowing that your experience with these harnesses is an advantage, how low does it take you to go through a harness such as this one from start to finish?

Can you do a wire harness for 88 subaru turbo for swap to beetle .(eng EA82 turbo)

I have a harness that I did up for a swap and I am wanting to get rid of the fuel level and pressure codes. You mention putting resistors in to get rid of them, can you go into that in more depth as to what wire needs what resistance please. I am also having some other issues I believe might be related to the harness, would you be willing to help me try and figure them out?

What do you suggest for PCV breather system - do you pcv delete or use same airbox and breather system - thanks-Brad

i am surprised that no company has made a custom wire harness for this type of swap

I have an opportunity to purchase a 2000 Subaru Legacy. Is this a good donor to convert my 70 Westfalia? If not, what do you suggest. Thanks! Obviously, we'll be doing business soon.

Some questions trying to get everything finished up for a test fire. I can start on ether only right now. fuel pump isn't getting power from the relay and even if I hotwire the pump it seems the injectors are not firing. any tips? also around 10:10 you mention 3 splices for the busaru speed sensor. ignition on, ground, and the VSS connection to the ECU I'm guessing?

How do you know what wires to keep and not to use

If you get a newer engine and ecu. Will the ecu have to have anything done to it? Be unlocked as some people put it? Thx! I have a 1970 standard beetle I would like to put a 2.2 or 2.5 standard or turbo.

Hi my name is Shane, I have a 2002 WRX 2.0 going into a 58 SC . Wondering if you could do my harness?

What do you mean by black box

So you unboxed this harness, where do you get them? Do you pull them yourself? At a junkyard or?

Would you be interested in doing my harness for my bugaru

I was hasty ripping out the wire harness from the parts car without marking anything and lost track and later may have cut stuff I might have needed. So Long story short I ended up having to buy a complete car and now going to go at it methodically .Sure would be nice if I could send the harness to you so you could do the deleting for me label shit and test it so it would be a slam dunk over here. I have a 2000 Impreza which is much similar to the 2000 Legacy. Please contact me if this is at all possible.we can use face book for our first contact.Be friend me Louie Forgett. Thanks

does 97 subaru have the test moode plugs

Do you absolutely need the harness? Let's say you can find an engine and don't go the donor car route.
