This how-to is based on my experience in replacing the rear wheel bearing on my 2000 2.5RS. I believe it is one of the more difficult setups to work with, because of the e-brake and lateral link bolt. Overall, this should be very similar to whatever car you have. There are different ways of doing this, many people prefer to simply take the whole knuckle to a shop, have everything pressed out and new stuff pressed in. The method covered here does not require you to remove the knuckle from the car.

The AEM Engine Management System (EMS) is the result of extensive development on a wide variety of vehicles. Each system is engineered for a particular application. The AEM EMS differs from all others in several ways. The EMS is a “stand-alone”, which completely replaces the factory ECU and features unique plug and play technology. There is no need to modify the factory wiring harness and in most cases the vehicle may be returned to stock in a matter of minutes. The AEMPro software is configured to work with the factory sensors and equipment, so there is no need for expensive or hard to find sensors, making replacements and repairs as simple as with any stock vehicle. For stock and slightly modified vehicles, the AEMPro software can be programmed with base parameters, providing a solid starting point for beginner tuning. For more heavily modified cars, the EMS has many spare inputs and outputs allowing the elimination of add-on rev-limiters, boost controllers, nitrous controllers, fuel computers, etc. It also includes a configurable onboard data logger capable of recording 512kb of information. Every EMS comes with all functions installed and activated, and there are no expensive options or upgrades to be performed.

This should be the same theory for all WRX’s The difference between the MY00 and the MY01 are merely the body shape and a different coloured dash, as the wiring is exactly the same as far as I can see.
1. You will need: -The Shift-I – A Screwdriver – A Multimeter – Wire Strippers – A Soldering Iron – An inline clip (only if you are like me and can’t solder very well!
2. Start by unscrewing and removing the Side Scrivet on the Dash
3. Remove the Change Drawer
4. Unscrew the screw above the Bonnet Release
5. Pull firmly on the left hand side of the bottom part of the dashboard and it should pop out

This manual is in no way definitive instructions on how to fit Gauges to an Impreza. It has merely been compiled as a guide to illustrate the parts I have used in order to fit them to my vehicle. It is designed as a source of reference only. Hope you find it useful !
For my new age Impreza I decided to fit a Turbo Gauge and Oil Pressure Gauge.
