slipspeedy Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 does anybody know if you can get a vw diesel in a suby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baccaruda Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 i don't think it's been done yet. You would probably have to have a lift kit on the subaru for it to fit under the hood. I'm looking at doing that in a year or two but that's no help to you now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FirstSubaruGLwagon Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 Sure,, just take a Diesel Rabbit and built a Justy body around it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subarian Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 There has been a fair amount of discussion on the board about it. You can do a search. I think the consensus is that it would be pretty difficult to fit under the Subaru hood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subiemech85 Posted January 13, 2006 Share Posted January 13, 2006 you may have better luck with an engine for a "van" type body, as the engine is tilted a steeper angle a VW fox may help, audi fox is totally different just a teaser: http://www.vwcaddyforum.com/pictures/caddyeng11.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zyewdall Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 Search for my old thread on this from this summer. I still think it's possible, but you've got to have a decent machine shop, which I didn't. I ended up putting it into a rabbit instead (which BTW, is quite a PITA to work on compared to a subaru) Edit: here's the old threads http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=45109&highlight=diesel+subaru http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=34141&highlight=diesel+subaru http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=42731&highlight=diesel+subaru http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=43350&page=1&highlight=diesel+subaru Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
