Mr. Brat

Yes, basically... I cut the mounts off and tack welded pieces of flat bar to make my mounts. Pulled the seats out and finished the welds. Little bit of paint and BAM!!!!

Works for me... See you there about 7:30!

Sounds good to me. Is there a place you want to meet?

You can put any seat in any car with a little creativity. I made little tabs for my 93 impreza seats that are in my 85 brat.

If I do diside to go it would be tomorrow that I figure it out, would leave about 7-7:30 and would come back in the afternoon. I know it's a lot of driving but have to take care of the horses since everyone else skipped town...

Cutting and welding doesn't stop me at all. There is a lot of people on here that can't/don't have access to torces or a welder. I am pretty much looking for bolt of 5 lug swap stuff with the axles that would work with it. I did find a company that can make 4 to 5 lug adaptors, but with that you don't get the bigger brakes.

That would be my last resort, I would like to have everything in one forum so everyone could search and find it. I have seen plenty of other ideas... you could search for days to get the same info.

If using the EJ knucles, can I take the center section out of the EA81 axle and put in the cups of the EJ axles to shorten the over length of the axle?

I have searched for this with no luck on finding anything. It is not getting harder and harder to find the XT6 5 lug stuff... With that being said, is it possible to EJ 5 lug on an EA? If possible who has done is and how hard is it?

Dont know if I am going to make it this year, but if I do... Is there going to be a drive or show and shine like last year?

If you are so adiment about getting better fuel milage... have you thought about buying a GEO??? They get way better milage...

Carbed with an O2 sensor??? Cat nor plugged? maybe a more economic muffler? You never said anything about a new air filter? or a clean one?

I looks like its a 6" lift with about 30" tires... It looks like the wheels are aluminum (if so, more than likely it has a 6 lug conv. not smart to drill alum. wheels). Looks like its an 83 from the chromw rear bumper and the trim down the side. But it is nice and pretty big if I do say so myself.

Indeed you can, I do this all the time with my phone. All you have to do is input your email where you add a contact and send it.

Either one is a great start... I didnt the same thing that was mentioned above... Parted out my legacy to fund my swap... If those wheels on the legacy are wrx wheels... well I might be interested in them if you buy the car.

It wasnt mine... This must mean there is another like mine? I guess I will have to do some changes now...

I also have the info on here about the 5 speed swap wiring. And I also just hooked up my hh to my 5 speed trans and only had to use the round dowel pin from the ea82 trans due to it's longer. Works fine without moving anything.

There is a few pictures on here... If you want more there is still a few around. Andy

Of my brat?

Very true... that little fix held up just fine! Yes that was your video.

That was the video when I snapped my rear axle. And still drove it home!

Welcome to the board... Do some research on here, you will find alot of stuff you can do on here!

Trans tunnel wont have to be beat out if the 4 inch lift is done at the same time. Would only have to worry about the trans crossmember and then welding in the brackets for the carrier bearing for the driveline. As for tires. I have a 4 inch on my brat with 15 inch wheels and 215/75r15 tires. Slight rubbing but nothing major. note* my wheels have more offset then most other 15 inch wheeled subarus.

Thank you for the compliment!

Nope... That wasnt me. Im glad alot of members know my brat though
