Awesome numbers... im going to have to take mine back to the dyno soon. now that i have done a few mods.... -=Suberdave=- www.suberdave.com

back yard spring compressor. clamped it down far enough to take the nut off without killing myself... -=Suberdave=- http://www.suberdave.com

nice work. let us know how it works... -=Suberdave=- http://www.suberdave.com

i beleave it will. i know that a turbo EJ fits in the EA82T crossmember. and the Ea81 uses the same header/uppipe. so it "should" fit... its a little tight, but if you buy a catless flex uppipe it gives you a bit more room. -=Suberdave=- http://www.suberdave.com

+1 i thought it was a bit taller. -=Suberdave=- www.suberdave.com

do some research before you buy, if your not sure what your getting you could be in a world of hurt when something happends. the EJ20G is an awesome engine and is very upgradeable, but some parts can be kinda hard to find. if you can find a intercooler from a EJ20G with pipes and BPV it should plug and play... the 2.2t wireing harness will run the EJ20G with some modifications but i dont think the ECU would work. you should double check this. dose the engine have coil on plug ignition or dose it have a coil pack with wires? that is one of the main difference between the ECU's and wiring. it sounds like they just swaped the longblock into the legacy. so it may run fine. but without the rest of the 2.0 setup i dont think you will receve the maxamum benifits. -=Suberdave=- www.suberdave.com

here is a wagon that i had with a WRX TMIC. i loved it. more pics on www.suberdave.com -=Suberdave=- http://www.suberdave.com

XT6 hubs are almost the same. they use the same struts. but the calipers are different. the impreza calipers dont have the parking brake on them. they would work the same. -=Suberdave=- http://www.suberdave.com

sorry gonna need a better pic. cant see anything odd in that pic -=Suberdave=- http://www.suberdave.com

dose anyone know where you can find a schedule for autocross in western washington? -=Suberdave=- www.suberdave.com

sounds like a grand time for all... -=Suberdave=- http://www.suberdave.com

yeah me too. engine swap, on the fly struts (EDFC), and struts that do not use the stock mounts. all put me into Prepared class. i beleave. but i read in the SCCA rule book that all open prepared cars need a role bar. witch i dont have. dose that mean i cant race? -=Suberdave=- http://www.suberdave.com

i have done 2 EJ swaps, and i have never pulled the dash. -=Suberdave=- http://www.suberdave.com

i see some post about rally X dose anyone Auto X their Subaru. i think i want to try it this spring/summer. just for fun. anyone do it around Washington? -=Suberdave=- http://www.suberdave.com

In My Opnion, and On Board Diagnostic 2. anything sold after 8/96 (with a few excptions) in the USA has to comply with this. no any EJ20* pre 2002 will be JDM the usa never had a 2.0L before the 2002 WRX. i am using the whole 96 "JDM" WRX drivetrain: engine, trans, diff, front susp, rad, brakes, ECU, wiring harness, ect... i would only use the stock ECU with stock wiring harness i have herd that Megasquirt will not work with an EJ due to the Crank and Cam sensors. but i have not done it so im not 100% sure. talk to Dr.RX or SubaruTex about teh Halteck. (but this along with many other standalone will not work with the coil on plug Ign.) the only aftermarket ECU i would use is a PowerFC. but for that you have to have the stock wiring harness. -=Suberdave=- www.suberdave.com

the EJ20G is a JDM engine that came from 92-96 WRX. the 2002 WRX engine (EJ205?) will be OBDII and will be much harder to convert. best bet IMO is to stay nonOBDII. as of yet i dont think anyone has installed an STi 6Sp into an EA body car. i have thought about it, but finding them is not easy. and when you do they go for $3500 or more. -=Suberdave=- www.suberdave.com

when i started to get into street subes i wanted to make a mean EA82T. so i started getting parts for the buildup. i started doing the math and came to the conclusion that fo me to build a EA82T with close to 200HP would be almost impossable, if i wanted to drive it every day. and would cost me around 2grand. so thats when i went the EJ20G route. cost a little more. (less than a grand more) but i now have over 200 AWHP and i drive it every day without worrying about it blowing up... now i have one of the quickest EA bodied Subarus in the USA... look at it this way. if you have $2500 you could have a bad A$$ EA that is at the very top limits of that engine, pushing 160-180HP, or for that same money you could have a stock EJ running at the stock limits, pushing 240-275HP and then mod the heck out of it and have even more power. my $0.02... take it for what its worth... $0.02 -=Suberdave=- http://www.suberdave.com

the SVX EG33 has 230HP and the EJ20G has 240-275 depending on year. and will fit easyer and is cheeper. just my $0.02 -=Suberdave=- http://www.suberdave.com

i have XT6 5 lug setup, with 200SX calipers. -=Suberdave=- www.suberdave.com

the first set of calipers i got from a nissan looked like the ones you have. the cable bracket hit the CV. so the next time i was at pull a part. i found a 200SX early 90's and they pulled from the bottom rather than the side and they fit awesome. -=Suberdave=- http://www.suberdave.com

i hate to say it but you got the wrong year / model... i did the same thing. those are to old. you need to find a newer one. -=Suberdave=- http://www.suberdave.com

i could be wrong but i think they only came on the duel carb setup. -=Suberdave=- http://www.suberdave.com

nice work... cant wate to see how it dose off road, and to see how long that D/R holds up to the power. -=Suberdave=- http://www.suberdave.com

do a search. i have done 2 DOHC EJ swaps. 96WRX has done one and i think a few are working on them now. there is plenty of room. -=Suberdave=- http://www.suberdave.com

it should cost you whatever you pay for the engine ecu and wiring harness plus adapter plate( should be able to find all that you need for $5-600). plus maybe $200.00 for extra parts and stuff... -=Suberdave=- http://www.suberdave.com
