Here in Australia I can't understand what you guys do to EA82 to need new oil pumps. Most do near 400,000km and whole car is just trashed, except maybe a gearbox for an EA81. I once compared the weight of a 4EAT (113kg) to the (55kg) of a part time 4WD box but forgot 16 kg of flywheel and clutch. A fella locally ditched his my way claiming he loved the difference in fuel, handling since ditching his lard arse auto. I can see GDs point in going awd auto for a loaner in the bush, and their abilities. And it sounds like good advice The Loyale EA82 can be a nice, light, reliable and capable beast. The 5MT needs no computer I still like my EA stuff after 25 years, my EJ stuff is still in boxes and non going vehicles And GD I am thinking of reboring an EA82 to make use of some new flat top pistons. Machining guy seems to think no problem getting bearings or parts to do heads The oil pump has done 90,000 km and some turkey pulled inlet manifold and let coolant rust the bore a little

So I got the motor back from the machine shop and meticulously reassembled it step-by-step from the FSM (again, first time doing this). Replaced all of the seals, gaskets, o-rings, timing belt, pulleys, oil pump, water pump, and most all of the bolts. I painted the intake manifold in some blue wrinkle and it was about ready to go.

Those are all the interchangeable. Look up the parts numbers at a subaru website and you'll find them listed as superceded under one part number and/or applicable to the same vehicles.

well the sedan is out of storage and ready to get the upgrade steering rack half of the wagon came home lol, guess its time to install stuff so we know the motor and transmission fit but this little turbo has a issue, had a feeling this was going to happen but there is a fix :banana:. Borger Warner makes a shorter wastegate and bracket for this very reason
