h6 project
well i want to ask this question on this site becuse you guys would know more about this.
i am planning on takeing out my svx motor out my svx soon....... know some pepole might think he is going to stick it in a gc impreza but i really dont want to use a gc8 for this swap. i just got a very clean 1991 legacy turbo and i want to put the svx motor in this car..... i cant find pics of the ecu but i seen some where that the ecu has the same plugs as a legacy turbo........ would someone know if the plugs are the same? also would some one have the ecu pinout of the svx so i can match things up? also i know there is more room up front of a legacy turbo then a impreza to have a factory rad and fans work. i have both cars so if i need to run the extra wires to make the coils work its not a problem. thank you nico.

i think it would be a really cool car to drive, all that power and sound from a nice mean h6 would be nuts.

It's been done in a 1st gen Legacy before....
You'll need the ECU wiring from the SVX, to make it all work, but since you have the SVX to pull parts from it shouldn't be too bad. I think the radiator will be OK, but I bet the fans are still an issue.

Link in my signature has the complete SVX service manual in downloadable PDF format. The ECU and TCU pin-outs are there as well.

The plugs on the ecu's are the same though the pin out is not. The wiring change should be pretty easy. Just unwrap the svx harness and take what wires you need. You can pop them out of the svx connectors so that you can pop them into the legacy connector just as easily. I would go ahead and leave the legacy harness wrapped the way it is and rearrange the wires as needed in the connectors, run the svx wires seperately and pop them into the connectors where they go.
