subaru_styles Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 well I still kept the wagon i bulit in 99/00 , which by the way has been sitting in the garage for the 1.5 years. So, after dealing with the lame "mod me and i explode" 1.8t, it was time, time for an upgrade here's a little story(click for bigger pics), got up early and drove teh RX to north WA ended up in Puyallup to pick up this. super thanks to suberdave for letting me store it for a couple days!!! i owe you, and yes your wagon is fast!(well have to have a little head to head at wcss;) ) just a hair over 100k, smaked in the rear, burned up clutch. *edit* nevermind the rims( see page 2) and its getting stuffed into ...so that there's no more of this so ill keep this thread updated on the progress, and build up of the 2.2T. the fun should start right after i move into my new house.

lastchance Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 Why didn't you call me doad? I would rather have ridden up with you rather then freaking work 5am-9pm. So, the RX wagen changes motors like you change your underwear. BTW: What did you decide on for the license plate up here in the WA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caboobaroo Posted February 22, 2006 Share Posted February 22, 2006 yeah but Brad, my RX is finally running with the stock engine in it.... Why didn't yours ever run with the turbo engine you put in it? Hmmmm????? Just kidding. Congrats. Now this just means I'm gonna have to start on my new EA82T here before too long but I'll probably have the one in the RX right now in there for the show. Oh and I got the manual BTW yesterday.

ballitch Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 awesome brad, are you going to be living in the portland area still. id like to give ya a hand with wrenching that beast of a motor under the hood. does this mean that you will be going with a legacy tranny? ~Josh~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subaru_styles Posted February 23, 2006 Author Share Posted February 23, 2006 well for the time being i will be using my xt6 tranny w3.9vlsd rear end. reasons why... 1: buys me more time (one less thing to mod) to get it done so i can at least drive it for the time being 2: since people "talk the talk, but don't walk the walk" it will actually give solid proof over at xt6.net on what this tranny can handle. that is, if/when it breaks.

Dr. RX Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Dang, you came all the way up here and didn't call, heck I'm less then an hours drive from Dave's place. When are you planning to be back up this way? Maybe we can meet at Dave's and go get some lunch like we did down in Bend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
