Ok tried searching couldnt find it

[subarunewbie2005]

Im hoping that maybe I wont get flamed for this post so thats why I tried a search first. Im trying to figure out what the models or options of Subaru are as well as the generations. I keep seeing the EA and EJ names.........Ive got those figured out to be engine identification numbers (the post I read yesterday helped alot) Im also wondering what identifiers I should be looking for to identify these engines. Any and all help will be appreciated.

Here's the down and dirty version

 

Gen I - 1979 and older body styles, most commonly came with EA71's (1.6L) divided into Stage I and Stage II (77.5-79) Gen1 Brats are 1978-1981

 

Gen II - 1980-1984 for wagons, sedans and coupes, 1982-1987 for Brats and 1980-1989 for Hatch's. Most commonly refered to as EA81 (1.8L OHV) body style, but did came with EA71's in certain models. Had 4spd 4WD tranny's in S/r and D/r

 

Gen III- 1985-1992 Ran the EA82 (1.8L OHC) and ER27 (2.7L OHC H6) Came with 5spd 4WD D/r and S/r transmissions, later models had the FT4wd trans

 

New Gen's - 1990-present, this includes the EJ engines 16, 18, 20, 22, 25, EG33 and EZ30 These are all the current 4 valve motors (4 valves per cylinder). Come in SOHC and DOHC variations. Inhabit the Legacy, Impreza, Forester, Baja and Tribeca's (there are designations to identify the different years and body styles of the New Gen stuff, but you'll have to go to the other side of the board to get that info, I don't really dive into them that much.

 

Hope that this helps ya out.

that was copied off a Internet page long ago, and is on Brians USRM pages, and under the Subarus of the 80's page, but does have some errors in it....
