Hello everyone started my day out hangin with some friends one tells me of two wagons he saw in a barn in the middle of Bum ************ egypt i bite and decide to drive out to look at them shure enough 2 ea82 5sp D/R wagons so i go ask about them and the guy tells me he has 3 more... Well curiosity got me and i asked where turns out he owns alot of land and they are on the other side of the feild hidden by apple bins. after some talking he lets me venture out to look at them this is what i found. Yep... 1985 RX turbo sedan 5spd D/R LSD!!! rear disks and no motor its like it was waitnig for me to EJ it... thats all for now i thnk this will be my build thread. Rob

well make me a deal nothing is set in stone... i might take 250 for my setup or... I just happen to have an ej2.2 from a 1996 impreza with the exhaust header so you would just need an adapter plate... you sir have a pm. Rob.

how about naming it heinz as in heinz57? or krusty? nice brat BTW Rob.

i can sell you a harness its the one from my EJ swapped car it all works and comes with ECU i can mark all wires for splicing it to your car. let me know might even let the EJ 2.2 legacy intake go with it has JDM coil pack and injectors with an impreza breather tube and modified aluminum MAF for a cone filter. Price for all this you ask? 450 bucks to your door step. Rob.

The red wagon you saw used to belong to a guy up past the college but he sold it to some kids its not a bad car i almost got it but it sold quick. the push bar is off a bronco 2 i think Rob.

hey jesse i told you what happend lol the PO of the car was REALLY REALLY HARD ON IT!! Rob.

Ok so i am picking up an ea82T wagon really really straight rust free car its 4x4 auto and the rear diff and hanger have been removed i have a peddal box from an ea82 and a 5 speed FWD trans from a 1991 legacy i was thinking of putting it in with an EJ and slamming it to the ground as a nice road car. so what i need to know is what do i need to do to fit the 5 speed FWD lego trans into my EA82 turbo wagon. anyone anyone ?? Thanks Rob.

if its a 5 speed AWD i would like to buy it. Rob.

HEY!!! i hope to be able to tag along next time but you know how it is. glad to see everything went well. Rob.

The intake is CAST aluminum with the water and intake passages in the same unit you can weld the outside and it would be back in one peice BUT you have no way to weld the inside wall between the water and air passage. Rob.

lol weird im robbie by the way i got the car then the guy i got it from (land lord) i think he was a duche anywho lost conection with him and then it went to bills. Rob

UPDATE ON MY TRANS and a bit weird at that pushed my car out of the driveway to move it went around the block and for gits and shiggles i put it in reverse low and behold the car went backwards... ? WTF drove it around worked fine all day but i go out to the car thismorning fire it up put it in reverse and the damn thing wont move but after i drive it for a bout 5 min. shure as ************ it works im at a loss its a Turbo 3.7 5sp SR 4x4 trans. anyone had this happen? Rob.

i think the xt67 axles are the same but they will not swap into your ea81 they are to long the ea81 axles are shorter. with the turbo tranny you will need custome axles. Rob

LOST REVERS IN MY CAR kinda sucks...

If you have the money to buy one of those you should have enough dough to get some fat hankook snowtires on steelies or rally wheels. Rob

I think if you ever get to meet brian you will retract that statement... LOL ROFL Looking sweet Brian are we going to finish this one Rob.

I should be able to go this year just got a new job and my car will be lifted and welded with a D/R oh and its got an EJ..... Rob.

i would talk to bill (the beast i drive) IIRC he is looking for a rig to use to build new gen lifts.

even if the belt is popped or the crank pully came off the nubs for the sensor are on the back of the timing belt gear so it should work anyways. Rob

i have heard it called a spark unit idk if thats what they call it but most of the time i hear ignitor best bet would be go to a JY and pull one pop it in see if it works.

oohh very nice good job finding one from a dirt state low to no rust. Rob

Hmmm well if its NOT the coil and you replaced the crank angle sensor thats the one on the FRONT of the motor the one on the Rear next to the bell housing is the knock sensor and there is a cam sensor on the drivers side cam case IIRC that runs the fule. I dont think the MAF really has much to do with spark the only thing i can think it might be is a bad conection between the Crank angle sensor and the harness. Rob

when my ej swapped coupe stopped getting spark it was the coil pack strange thing is the engine is out of a 1996 impreza if you have an DVM,DOM there is a way to check it i think if you end up needing one i have a feew good ones every time i can i pull them from yards good part to have for spare.
