s2baru Posted April 7, 2016 Author Share Posted April 7, 2016 Overall plan is to keep the car. Get it paid off, which will be this Oct-Nov to be done with payments.Drop my insurance to all the lowest policys. I'll reevaluate what I want to spend on it when all that's done. I'll drive my truck for as long as I can and save save save save. Big summer with trips again, which I always do, so $$ is going to be saved for that. I'll also be moving later this summer so I need to have extra for a deposit. So I'll share some parts in the meantime. Unless someone REALLY wants to buy my car and I'll keep my wheels, coils, front end and engine. They'd be buying it as a shell for like 5-8grand And zee they're used off Swannees car, and yes Goodridge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s2baru Posted April 8, 2016 Author Share Posted April 8, 2016 Guess I had a bit of a come to moment tonight after a chat with my pops. There's difference between a project and burden, I just have to decide which way this is going. Seems as of lately it's a burden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FAILBOT Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Sorry to hear the news. Your pops sounds like a smart man. Just have to decide what's worth more, the time and money or the love of building that car and driving it. Either way, I believe the forum will be here to support you along the way. I'm no real use mechanically but, if you need any electrical help I'll help in any way I can. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s2baru Posted April 13, 2016 Author Share Posted April 13, 2016 Had some time today to pull the timing covers off without my back locking up on me. Timing belt looks good and teeth are all intact. Definitely something inside. Next up compression test when I have time. Garage is a mess so need to make some space for an engine hoist and stand. Going to attempt to get pics tomorrow hopefully (if I can get them to attach) of some items I'm going to sell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTEASER Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Going to attempt to get pics tomorrow hopefully (if I can get them to attach) of some items I'm going to sell Go to the sticky in the FS section and there is a link there with 2 methods of attaching pics. SBT just put together that little tutorial recently. Good luck. Let me know if you need help with anything.

BBPeik Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Sorry to see you parting out that great JDM front end. Of course I would love to buy it too. Damn if only I had unlimited funds. Engine swap and JDM front end would be great. Well good luck S2 hope this all works out in the long run. My someday I will be done with it thread.

s2baru Posted April 16, 2016 Author Share Posted April 16, 2016 Not sure what to ask for the clip but considering all the hard work done of it getting here by others then getting all the dents fixed and prep/paint for a direct swap I think I'm being fair.

magnusonsubie Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Damn. I had no clue this had happened. Now I understand the conversation we had yesterday. I thought it was just not having a FMIC done yet and wanting something to drive. 2005 Vader Wagon Material Tests on Ringland Failure Piston I should have held off and purchased a wagon instead of the spec.B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tehnation Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Stock shortblock, longblock or complete engine? have you tried car-part.com for a complete engine? Shortblocks are like 1700-1800 shipped from some dealership on here, i think hueberger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLlegacy Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 For the money, I would look into a built short/long block. I don't think subaru will honor a warranty when the dealer sees what your car has done to it, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
