WJM Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 Well, after many fustrating days and years with the EA82, and not being able to find an appropriate engine management system to run the car PROPERLY and RELIABLY no matter what money and time I spend... It is EJ time. But, again, I will boldy go where no one has gone before. There are many of you out there with EJ22's in them...some of you have EJ25's....still there are others with EJ205s, EJ20G/K's...and some day soon, I am SURE there will be a complete EJ257 in one. I'm sure there are EJ207's in a few somewhere on this planet. However...I'm sure no one has done this in an EA82 car yet. EJ257 shortblock+2.5 RS heads+EJ205 Intake manifold+stock EJ257 exhaust manifold Add in a VF39, water injection and an AEM for engine management...plus a US spec WRX transmission with some upgrades, and you've got some decent power. A RELAIBLE 350/350 or more at the crank. It starts tonight. Finnish time? Oh, I dont know...could take months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
86BRATMAN Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 Bad rump roast man. Sounds like it'll be worth a trip to GA when its done. Hopefully I can make the trip in the Brat and have a photo shoot:grin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uberoo Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 That is my idea!!!!stuff a EJ257 in a EA82 wagon and build the nuts out of it...Although yours will probally be done long before I even start on mine..Take lotsa pics!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

idosubaru Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 subarubrat put a WRX drivetrain and built engine in an XT6. that's not an EA, but very close since since EA and ER trans and engines are interchangeable in terms of bolting up. so the work would be nearly identical in nature. i believe he was pushing 400 or more reliable HP in that. don't know if he ever posted info on that swap or not.

Caboobaroo Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 +1 for both of you two... -=Suberdave=- www.suberdave.com I had fun blowing up a few EA82s... Besides, my EJ swap will come after I move and when I can afford it. Right now, I just gotta concentrate on getting moved here in 51 days:grin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
