  1. i am running the 2.2 in my originally 1.8 95 obd1 impreza, running the 1.8 intake wiring and ecu, 2.2 injectors, she runs fine! not even a check engine light, egr is blocked off
  2. 95 impreza wagon, manual from 96 leg, 3.90, 2.5 block from 96 leg ob, witht the heads from the 1.8 on it, 1.8 ecu and intake, full egr, runs pretty good, stronger than a 2.2 for sure, as good as the 2.5twin, rev happy, torquey, kyb-gr2's, tien springs, 08 leg 22mm front sway, seats from a 03 wrx, custum shifter, 04 wrx momo wheel, 02 gt wheels, 02 outback leg brakes, lots of lower chassis bars, no rear sway, rear drum, no spoilers or scoops or vents, no exhuast...YET, tint, blue, back window covered in roller derby stickers, traveling 81 and 64 most weekends........i got about 1000 miles on the hybrid motor, thinking about trying again but port the ************ out of the heads, i have another set, also have the 2.2, but the heads look the same to me......does anybody know if the valve from the 2.5 twin can bit made to fit the 2.2 heads, or 1.8 heads......
  3. so my current plan is,,,,,,2.2 dual ports with roller rockers from siingle ports, onto a phase 1 2.5 dohc block. and some delta cams if i have any money, i know i can make the whole thing run using the 1.8 wiring and ecu, but i know it will run better if i find a 2.2 ecu and harness to use.....
  4. i got a 2.2 into the 1.8 now, using intake from 1.8 and wiring, but injectors from 2.2, runs and idles but ahs a stuter every so often, i want to put a 2.5 dohc i have in there but i know i want a knock sensor, i know i can get the ecu, harness section and then use the 2.2 or 2.5 engine harness but i havnt found a 95 impreza with the right combo to get the harness, so i know if i find that im ok, but minus that, is there a way to do this, the 2.2 ecu has a different plug on the ecu and the engine.....any help would be great... also is there any body lightning factory flywheels anymore, skip used to but i dont know if that cats still around....
  5. anybody know if a forester bumper will fit an impreza, both are 99's.....
  6. so i have a 98 forester that needs a motor, it has 170k on the chassis, so it needs some general suspension work, and since the cats are pluged, it will also need exhuast work, now all this might seem duanting, but i used to run a shop, still have a shop in my garage, and really know my subaru's. you new guys might not know me, but i been doing subarus for 20 years. and i have been on the USMB for 15 years and many a site change. now back to the car, i want to lower it(kyb agx and some whiteline springs and swaybars) i dont know if i can use imprezza struts all round, any one know??? i want to build a boosted 2.5 DOHC motor for it(using cooked old motor) my heads are rebuildable(plan n some serious porting) but i wonder if i can bolt the ej25 heads onto a boosted block, or rebuild my block with some lower compresion pistons, any ideas???? do seats swap between impreza and forester? any other crazy ideas for a forester??? i have lots of experience building/racing early impreza sti(93-01) and have built several GT-B legacy's(enough to know twin turbo's are a ***************) but have never messed with the forester(except the usual engine and trans and maintence work) the car is rust and wreck free, loaded with all options, nice alloys, and never riced, i see some (very few) sf5 jdm forester stuff on ebay, dont see anybody selling anything here let me here your ideas....
  7. i didnt, but my tattoo artist who recently moved to cali(grrr) drives a subaru i built,,,,,,,,,,,
  8. anywhere LA, car is in SIMI need help bad, cant find a decent SOOB MECH and the trans is ************ing up any help!!!!
  9. a car i built 9 months ago just lost its transmission, apperently goes foward and reverse no more than 10mph, weird!!, car is located in SIMI valley cali, its a 96 legacy outback with a 2.5 and a auto, i rebuilt the engine but the trans was completely rebuilt, and has worked very well for the past however many months, any help let me know julestatum@comcast.net 434-249-5853
  10. nobody listen to this guy he is a dead beat that owes me thousands and is up to trickery to get his motor back SUBYLUV owes me more than 3000 for the work i did and was MIA for 6 months, now he expects me to just hand his car over even though he doesnt have the money to pay the bill scrapdaddy but hey i dont build cars anymore so i really dont care i know that if he calls me again ill be pursueing the bill hotshot you need anything else from me just ask i dont have the shop anymore pretty much was out of there right after you got the car and im broke becouse of all the unpaid invoices people left me with but im glad to see you trying to build the car SDT
