subikid90 Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 When I pulled my motor I took everything off the top including the intake manifold. I might not do that next time to save time. -Subikid90 1997 Legacy GT 5spd & EJ251 w/EJ25D heads ~10.5CR 1998 Legacy GT Limited waiting for EJ22T hybrid swap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twistedautoworks Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 i would venture to say that usdm switched to a sohc while anything coming from japan would have stayed dohc... plus i don't think jdm stuff came with a 2.5L due to certain engine displacement regulations..

98sc00byGT Posted March 16, 2010 Author Share Posted March 16, 2010 yeah we are gonna take everything else off once we pull the motor.gay thing is that we have to split the motor so that means more head gaskets....i just did them 3k ago....and re-manufactured heads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

98sc00byGT Posted March 17, 2010 Author Share Posted March 17, 2010 ya dude my front end is lifted so high without the engine haha it looks pretty cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awox Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 I'm going to follow this post very closely! My engine is in very bad shape, head gaskets are blown like swiss cheese. I've found a person willing to do a JDM ej25 swap for a decent price here in Maine, so I'm hoping this goes well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum_Racing Posted March 20, 2010 Share Posted March 20, 2010 ya dude my front end is lifted so high without the engine haha it looks pretty cool I bet it looks like an old gasser drag car... That motor looks clean though. Consider me subscribed to this thread.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98sc00byGT Posted March 20, 2010 Author Share Posted March 20, 2010 the only reason it looks clean is because i had the heads off and had a valve job and had them resurfaced and they cleaned them for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eastwood Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 I am new to this forum and have a 97 legacy gt with a ej25d and have been told that I have crank shaft end play. Has anybody heard of that and also I have been looking into the jdm ej25, I have found them shipped to my house for 900 bucks. Any good advise could help alot.
