had a Justy idea....


Recommended Posts

So I was thinking...a Justy has its engine sitting in it the wrong way. :-p

 

I was thinking...make the justy RWD, turn the engine the 'correct' way and build it.

 

strip it, Solo1 roll bar it...and call it done.

Umm no, that would be pointless.

This idea obviously hasn't been fully thought through; I can think of two major issues not addressed.

 

Ultimately what is the point? There is a factory Justy rally sport package with push button 4WD. Why not just run that? :confused:

RallyJusty I beleive has done almost exactly what you describe. You can do a search for his posts, he had some good information and pictures last I saw one of his more technical posts. His project went a bit further than just the drivetrain I think, basically ended up being a full tube framed car. He has his own website with his pictures on it.

Justys kick rump roast, I'd totally drive one!

 

Anyhow, what you're talking about has been done a number of times in the VW community. A certain purple Corrado comes to mind, with a rear-engine VR6 turning the back axles. It, however, is still transverse mounted, since they just used the existing transmission/halfshalf setup to power the back instead of the front.

Hell if you all like the justy that much I got a guy at school that wants to sell his mint justy 4wd with rally lights, custom hood w/scoop and exhaust and ram air intake.

 

 

Lemme kno if your interested, he wants a GL like mine.

If everybody in the world drove small, rear wheel drive cars there would be no hate, no war, no predujice. Everyone would be happy and sing and dance together and... um sorry, I lost my thought there..... Oh yeah; low weight + RWD = performance. Ask ThreeEyedBandit about his formerly turbo'd Justy. Unfortuanetly, the turbo now lives on my kitchen counter.

does the justy being an EJ type motor bolt up to any old EJ tranny? (ie: legacy 5 speed! 4.11 rear end... awd... ooooo)

 

justy also has a 78mm bore and 83mm stroke... unusual for subaru huh? they like bigger bore and smaller stroke... ie: 92mm bore and 67mm stroke.
