el_freddo Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 I know it's an old topic but I did an ej22 swap in a brat a few years ago and never did get the original oil pressure gauge to work. I've heard the ea81 and ea82 senders are the same. How did the oil filter sandwich work out for you? Do you have any pics with the oil pressure sender installed? This is how I've done mine - stock EA oil warning light sender on one end and aftermarket mechanical gauge on the other. It all fits under my alternator. To fit your pressure sender unit which is much larger, I've seen it done with a line extension to an area where it's easy to access and clear of any other objects. Worked a treat for them.

ShawnW Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Right on. I've been thinking of running an oil cooler myself. I ordered a sandwich but I haven't found all of the adapters yet. I did find this, http://store.42draftdesigns.com/VW-Oil-Pressure-Relocation-Kit_p_314.html it might be of some help in your application. Good luck. Post some pics when you finish. I would defiantly like to see how you install a cooler. Why not use a Forester Oil Cooler? I think I could piece together a kit if needed but otherwise a junkyard run and not too hard to install.

cmiller Posted June 21, 2012 Author Share Posted June 21, 2012 That's the way to go. It bolts right up to a EJ22 with factory parts. I recommend new hoses rather than used to make sure it lasts for a good long while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmiller Posted June 27, 2012 Author Share Posted June 27, 2012 Today I put in a marine grade 12v outlet in the rear cargo are for the ARB fridge/freezer. The 12v is switched off of the panel in the center console which gets its power off of the auxiliary battery. It will run the fridge for 18 hours before needing to recharge. So letting it go over night while camping is no problem. The dual battery system will monitor this for me and when I start up the car again it will recharge the aux battery automatically. This all translates to fresh food when out on a long camping trip! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prwa101 Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Hopefully I can make this a Summer 2013 project.. could you enlighten me to the overall cost, roughly? PM is fine. For an over all ej swap? There are a lot of other threads on costs, Good Engine 500-600+ Stripped harness 250$+ Add plate 150$ Clutch kit 180$ Miss 200$ There's prolly more I'm missing I can't remember all I had to buy and spend. I did almost all of my build my self, total cost for me counting the car and a home built 4" lift and 235/75's maybe 700-1000$ but like I said I did it all my self and traded work for the engine. Plan on spending about 1000-1500$ you can also use the search button for costs for ej swap haha. As for this build! This was my inspiration for my build! You've gon and awsome rig man!
