Would this work if the diff were a 3.9 unit?

Any other opinions?

If you're worried, GET IT FIXED!!!

Ben, those are Touring Wagons. We got them here and I've seen a couple around. Keep your eyes peeled for em, Extra points if its got a raised the roof!

For the money, I'd look at the Mazdaspeed Miata. $26K and only $800 more than an LS w/ options. What are the plans for the XT6 and related parts?

the trailing arms on the rear of the brat will not clear any tire that is not close to the stock size.

Yes, I did have to lengthen the driveshaft. I used the stock 3EAT shaft and had it lengthened 2.56 inches. Not 100% on that, but it would be the difference between the EA82 2pc driveshaft and the EA81T driveshaft. Ed can verify my number.

Any turbo ECU from 85 should work. The RX's engine was no different than any other EA82T. You're not supposed to get trouble codes with the engine running. what is code 12 (Thats what you're getting) for EA82T in the FSM?

While brousing Rudy's pics I came accross and noticed it has a 6k rpm redline. I can't tell in the other pics of this car and it's engine swap if it has a duel carb engine, but if it does then maybe the dual carb engines reved higher?

Need to find a catalog online of WRX parts numbers. Anyone got links?

If you have one or can borrow one, use a FSM and follow the trouble shooting trees to figure out the problem. Might try a different ECU.

Thats too funny! The NEON, Chrysler's finest? HAHAHA!!!

Like stated above, the RX/RS had 3.7 gears. All autos had 3.7 gears. N/A cars had 3.9 gears. Only the newer N/A cars have 4.11 gears.

Those numbers are for the SRT-4, got em from car and driver. Hate to say it, but even with a turbo and 245hp, its still a FWD NEON. Now the 2004 ones come standard with LSDs, but all you have to do is turn up the boost a hair and the NEON is toast again!!! Which camp are you rooting for man?

An SRT-4 will not beat a WRX! WRX 0-60: 5.4s NEON : 5.6s WRX 1/4m: Couldn't find a good one! Neon 2/4m: 13.8s @ 102 Anyway, Dodge could have done better on the neon.

I'll tell you when I get my new engine!

Look for a baffeled oilpan! some cars had 'em some didn't but I have yet to figure out which they came on.

Guys, Justy's aren't Subarus... They are rebadged Suzukis, Swifts, Geos, all in the same family, all three cyl engines. the Justy just threw 4wd into the mix, nothing else. But I still think they're hella cool! Might get one if I can find one in good condition!

Now all I have to do is find someone to buy my Benz. Anyone?

So what is the code for a USDM Impreza Corky? Zap- Racing is mostly driver and only a little bit car. You're obviously a great driver. As you know, Im in high school, so most of my racing will be of the drag kind. The more HP the better! Also a sleeper would be nice, but if I can find an RS cheap, Im gonna try to get it, or if I decide to use my new engine, it won't really matter what chassis it goes in.

Got a hook up on any more of those engines?

starting to lean that way, but everyone and their uncle has a GC8!

The RX is an EA82 and thus would need a custom suspension set up!!!

Yeah yeah yeah Corky, laugh it up... At least its a REAL WRX, not an "L" with plastic surgery and a heart transplant!!! I know what the GDB suspension looks like. I dont have an EA82 so I cant go look at one. Im trying to decide between an Impreza shell or an EA82 shell. Impreza=expensive & better, EA82=cheap & cheap!

Does anyone have pics of thses differences? Brad-Dad is pulling money from account and we'll drop it today.
