I want dual range AWD for my '95 Legacy
oskar_subaru replied to superu's topic in Subaru Retrofitting
maybe this is usefull info, but i doubt it :cool: over here in iceland the 5speed EJ series cars almost all came with the D/R transmissions forester´s all had them (except turbo models) impreza´s and legacy´s where different basicly the sedans had just the normal 5 speed and the wagons had the D/R (again, except turbo models) i have even seen a 2008 ej15 impreza hatch with a D/R i have driven sooo many subaru´s here and while i don´t tear many transmissions apart, i can tell you that not all of them have the same low range ratio (depending on year, model) here is a "90 wagon i had Ej22 16Valve with a D/R 1998 forester = 2001 legacy = 2009 legacy = cheers -

The Awesome Older Generation Picture Thread

thought i would share a little the first subaru i had had this one for a while looked perfect but a lot of rust in the floor pans and subframes [/img] then got this one and sprayed it with beadliner (never doing that again) and then "the one that got away" made a big mistake selling it, i have been looking for one as good since -
When do you shift your EA82 5 Speed?
oskar_subaru replied to Ofeargall's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
when i had my GL the throttle pedal was used as an on/off button and seeing how far past the redline i could get was just part of the fun (valve float was just below 9000rpm) never skipped a beat so much love for the EA82's -
Switch control boards ?
oskar_subaru replied to oskar_subaru's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
no i know how to mount a switch, i just want to do it neatly, i have 4-5 switches and a oil press gauge i have to mount and i would like it to be flush in the dash somewhere, i´m just looking for pictures of some neat setups -
i am looking for ideas on how to mount some switches and warning lights in car, i was wondering if you could share some pics to give me ideas ?

or just stop thinking about it and drive the car -
you could have a machine shop make you spacers to go from 4x140 to 4x114.3 or 4x100, seen it done b4

Anyone ever EA swaped a legacy ?
oskar_subaru replied to oskar_subaru's topic in Subaru Retrofitting
hahaha i know it´s not a good idea but i still can´t overcome the idea of a EA82 driven legacy -
Anyone ever EA swaped a legacy ?
oskar_subaru replied to oskar_subaru's topic in Subaru Retrofitting
i would be talking about taking the trans with each motor, i have some rednecking skills and a welder / any power tool, and as i said, it would not have to be a fun drive, just get the old man to work and back, my EA motor/trans only have about 60.000miles on them and and the motor is fairly strong in its powerband i know what i would be getting myself into work-wise but this cant cost well, nothing would be best -
hmm ok so i have my 87" leone and my dad uses my legacy to get to work and back (2-3km commute) i was thinking about stealing the EJ22 out of the legacy but my dad still needs to get to work, so i thought, If a EJ fits into the leone without much trouble then getting the EA to work in the legacy cant be so difficult anyone ever done this that you know of ?
