T'subaru

:cool:

Hey Bill, Ive got a fella intersested in a subaru conversion in his toyota rock crawler. Whats the best way to steer him your way for info/pricing etc other that these 50 plus pages?

That thing is Killer Dave! While watching the video all I could do was smile and think to myself holy crap!

No sir, The wrx pedal box as the ea82 pedal box mounts to the brake booster mounting studs inside the car ( exact same bolt pattern ) and the template as crude as it looks was layed out with the wrx pedal box and clutch master cyl mount bracket on the pedal box. I then from inside the car put the template on the brake booster mounting studs and pilot drilled the clutch master cyl holes from inside the car with an 1/8th inch drill bit, then finished drilling the holes for the clutch master cyl from under the hood. IIRC the hole for the clutch master cyl body was about 5/8 or 3/4 inch in diameter done with a step drill, or unibit...works out sweet! My wagon was an auto but it doesnt matter as far as using your ea82 acc pedal portion of your original pedal box, just cut it off as shown in the pics. I used a 4" angle grinder but a hacksaw would do the job just as well. I bought my wrx pedal box off of NASIOC from a guy parting an '07 wagon IIRC

lol! ( i just ran across this today ) Thanks!

http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=112285&page=5&highlight=T%27sunami Check this out, you need a pedal box out of a wrx ( should be easy to find ) and do the mods I did. The acc pedal is seperate on the wrx's, dont mess with it, just use your ea82 pedal.

ive got one you can check out. my travels weekly are from Westport to Everett during the work week and im working in the Seattle downtown area mostly. too late this weekend, but if you pm me ill haul it next week or whenever.

I did a vehicle trade last month. I traded this for this Its an '88 eddie bauer edition, efi 351 auto. I replaced the tailgate glass and wiring along with a new starter and battery. I just received upper and lower ball joints from rockauto. It runs great and should drive fine once they are installed. This is where it all gets strange. The guy removed the bed from my traded toyota by hand and with the help of a hatchet:confused: Me trying to be a nice guy and help him out built a flatbed for him with what ever wood I had kicking around. The new owner followed my efforts up with a custom paint job. And the interior was painted to match too:grin: To top it all off he just gave it back to me yesterday. Hes leaving town and cant take it with him:-\ I guess Ill sell it and send him some money....

Thanks Bennie, Progress has been very slow since last summer. Mainly time and money issues along with some other projects mixed in. I plan on installing the harness without pulling the dash, the pics are of my tie-ins and all the unnecessary wiring I cut out of the wagon. Ive currently got the engine on a stand while replacing pumps, timing components and resealing. Once its installed Ill continue with the harness install. Im also in the process of tweaking some of my lift components too. Ill be updating soon once I make some major progress.

I wont have the engine installed until later this summer so I cant answer your clearance question yet. I purchased mine from performance rad, it has a 5/8 core as well. riv nut tools are awesome:)

Heres what I did to run an ej radiator. Cooling fans will have to be in front of the radiator. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=112285&highlight=T%27sunami+Wagon&page=6

My turbo wagon lifted also, and my xt6 really lifts while shifting at high rpms. Ive seem anti lift stuff offered up for wrx's, I wonder if its just part of having subaru awd ? I know nothing of anything older than an ea82 though.

Funny how we feel a need to punish ourselves;)
