Phizinza Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 or chuck a wrx sti drivlein in it. already looked at the 4.44 idea in a L series box. consensus out here is no. Some people don't take "no" for an answer... I like these people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rguyver Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 I have them but haven't been able to install them yet, moved twice and pregnancy complication have kinda gotten in the way. I'm contracting, stand in mom, dad, pretty much WOT right now. Oh yeah work too.I cringe whenever I look at the D/R in the shop, timing can be a real *************** Hi the names Regan and if you need any help ill be glad to do it just to see if you can make the 4.44 work in some sort of D/R gear box i have several EA D/R + S/R and EJ trannys apart and even a EA RX D/R tranny a forester and a RS EJ tranny . I live in Kelowna and if i ever get around to going to the Van. island i could drop off any thing you need to make this work , i have family in Victoria .

torxxx Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 you guys need to check out the aussie subaru site. I remember seeing quite a few EA series cars with 4.11 and 4.44 gears in the trannys for somereason the farther sound you go, the eaiser the soob moddin gets. those guys got some crazy rigs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ballitch Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 thank you rguyver, beat me to it. the EJ trannys ARE NOT THE SAME THING as a the EA tranny. its not, throw the gears in there and it will work. anybody can buy a jap tranny and rear diff, and BOOM you have 4.44 gears and an LSD. i want the 4.44 gears IN the EA tranny. that way i keep the D/R. ~Josh~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First, down here most rigs can only be 2" body lifted... Because of law. Normally what aussies do is put the EJ dual range or an EJ auto into their EA car along with a EJ engine (maybe cos we're to scared to use an "adaptor plate" I dunno...) And another thing I have noticed. Most subaru offroading Americans use Subies offroad cos their cheap. Most subaru offroading Australians use Subies offroad cos they want to. See what I am getting at? You guys don't have the money to spend, we have to much.. Well, thats a little over exaterated, but you get it, right?

I dunno about others, but when I offroad my subie I treat it like...I would a Kia?! So I don't want to put to much money into it. I think maybe others are the same, in the US anyhow. I just get that vibe when I am on USMB... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarge Posted June 20, 2006 Share Posted June 20, 2006 I am building mine because I am sooo tired of hearing about everyone's 4wd lifted trucks that are soooo cool... do something different. but yeah, enough bickering, back to the 4.44's..... what's the latest news?

archemitis Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 for 700 bucks, id buy two subarus and just floor them into obsticles. cant the gears be had out of junkyard cars for alot less? anybody ever drive a samurai, or a toyota 4x4? even with 31s they crawl about half as fast as a stock(subaru)dual range with stock tires. tcase mod still seems like the best bet for better gearing.

heep70 Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 I drive a Toyota 4x4 and a Subaru. Didn't notice that much of a difference. Toyota has a 39.1:1 crawl ratio (ref my 1980 Toyota 4x4) Subaru has a 22.0:1 crawl ratio (ref my 1986 Subaru 4x4) Both is stock form, the Toy crawls twice as slow.

Sarge Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 That's all good and well but this is a Subaru board not a Yota forum. I own a subaru and don't plan on getting rid of it anytime soon. And I sure as crap ain't gettin' rid of it to get a yota. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ioku Posted January 30, 2011 Share Posted January 30, 2011 I know this is old but thought I'd bump it up to see what became of this project. Did you ever get the 4.44'S to fit in the EA D/R case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ditto!! ^ ^ ^ I like scrolling through my subscribed list once and a while to rehash old thoughts. Did anything ever come of this gearing wet dream??
