I've read on here that you can use an ea81 dizzy in an ea82 by doing something with the gear at the end. Don't know if I have that right but my question is can you modify an ea82 dizzy to work in an ea81?

I started out this time last year with no car at all due to a first time driving in snow incident then my next car getting stolen in the first week of living here just about the same time as my living situation fell through ... All in a town and state where I didn't know literally anyone.. Now I have 3 running subarus .. A 2008 Polaris ranger 700 xp and a sick camper all sitting at my house .. That backs up to the Applegate river . 96 legacy is a zero hp no fun stepping stone my friend .. Compared to cold and homeless .. Its a world of fun.. Compared to what I'll have by the end of summer .. Its not even worth mentioning Aaaaand there's my novel for everyone to probably not read ha .

I enjoy driving with a MTover auto trans by like a million. Purly based on what i enjoy more and not what's more reliable fuel efficient or whatever else ha I'm not knocking the transmission or any other part of my legacy by any means . Its just not nearly as fun to drive is all. IMO of course, gentlemen.

Could I put the GL body on the rx chassi??
-
I'm ok with it being more of a hurdle . full disclosure.. I kinda hate the RX. The car itself is boring and ugly as hell. Plus I have an emotional attatchement to my GL. She was my first! (Subaru) .

Ok so I gave the 85 rx turbo to a friend (who's yet to come get it ) also came up on a 9y legacy L sedan .. Auto trans tho :/.. I wanna do a MT swap into the Lego but was thinking I might as well just get the MT then throw the Ej into my 84 GL wagon, which is still my favorite of the 3 subarus I currently own . So since the RX is may not be getting picked up by my buddy .. What can I take off of the 85 RX and 96 Legacy L to do some cool custom mix of the three on my 84 GL wagon? And I'm sure it can't be done (easily or even without a whole lot of work I'm incapable of at least ) but, will any of the 3 manual transmissions I have bolt up to the ej22 in my legacy ?? The rx and the gl have 5 speeds .. Gl is FWD.. And I have a whole other tranny that came with the gl sitting in the garage collecting dust .. Not sure what it came from .. It is off an older subi tho I'm pretty sure ha

Ok I have a 96 legacy and it's an automatic .. Which IMO! is like slapping God in the face.. Anyways I'll probably end up selling it and just buying another simular model and year but with a manual transmission that came stock or is already swapped .... BUT for sake of I don't choose the easiest and or most logical option most the time, here's my question . What subaru can I grab a MT from thats going to be the easiest and least complicated to stick in my current 96 No fun mobile ? Is there a specific one that just bolts right up and has little to no wiring harness mods or what have you? .. Ps I'm not broke but I'm not wealthy . Thanks a million in advance . You guys have really helped me more than I can express gratitude for via post ha .

Just got this car a few days ago and the brakes were making a God aweful noise when I'd step on them .. Popped the hood no brake fluid at all so I filled it up with 2 bottles .. Was for for a minute then the brake peddle would depress all the way and the brakes were almost non existent once again .. Bought MORE brake fluid and noticed that it was draining out somewhere behind the back driver side wheel . Is this a relatively easy fix or not? Never messed with the brakes on any car before.. Oh and my blinkers stopped working out of nowhere . Doesn't make the usual noise nor light up at all . Do i just need New lights? I'll probably go probe around to figure that one out but figured I'd throw it out there while I'm on here ha. Thanks guys .

I have 2 extra fuel pumps laying around ones like 40 and the other 80 psi .. Should I try to throw either of those on?
-
Cars running like garbage but running .. Super low idle and dies if I don't keep pumping the gas .. Sounds like every bit of liquid in it is boiling after a short drive even with the fan always on (has a radiator out of an 84 GL ea81) ... Don't know if the temp gauge works . seems to be hit or miss .. Oil pressure gauge might be broken .. Says I have zero OP and kinda increases when I rev the engine . sometimes it doesn't move at all . Have to get a running start to make it up my driveway that's a little bit of an incline.. During a few mile test drive earlier it was popping or backfiring rapidly in 2nd and 3rd I believe .. Sounded like my car was farting ha. Was hoping someone could help me get me started on getting this beauty running good and resolving the above mentioned issues . A million thanks to those who have taken time to help me hatch stuff out so far and get this thing even rolling . I really do appreciate it .
