DOHCEJ22E1 Posted May 28, 2013 Author Share Posted May 28, 2013 The car is now repaired it the brakes haven't been put on yet, since the last set of pads still have a good chunk of meat left to them. The car drives normally as it did before the damage. No weird noises. If anything, I would think that its a little smoother than before. There is still a chunk of TQ between 2k & 3k that I am trying to figure out how & why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOHCEJ22E1 Posted June 6, 2013 Author Share Posted June 6, 2013 I have been a little busy as of late but I was able to install the new brake set & clean the car up a bit for WBM. Unfortunately, I ruined my grille, so I'll have to attend without one. Car still looks cool though. http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w40/Kenshin1984/IMG_0006_zps405ce6bd.jpg http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w40/Kenshin1984/IMG_0005_zpsf35a0241.jpg http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w40/Kenshin1984/IMG_0004_zps08864147.jpg http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w40/Kenshin1984/IMG_0003_zps162bef5f.jpg http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w40/Kenshin1984/IMG_0008_zpsce639202.jpg http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w40/Kenshin1984/IMG_0010_zps83cbc6e7.jpg http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w40/Kenshin1984/IMG_0001_zps3c0b3ca3.jpg http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w40/Kenshin1984/IMG_0011_zpsd66d7542.jpg[/img] http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w40/Kenshin1984/IMG_0002_zps4a4485e8.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DOHCEJ22E1 Posted June 29, 2013 Author Share Posted June 29, 2013 A short while ago, I installed this nice OBX strut bar. It is for a first gen Impreza but can be easily adjusted & tightened to fit this car with ease. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DOHCEJ22E1 Posted July 4, 2013 Author Share Posted July 4, 2013 Thanks. Unfortunately, bills & such have kept me from the project for a little longer. As such, I am maintaining this car as good as I possibly can & it's harder than one would think... http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w40/Kenshin1984/DSC00016_zpse418a1d1.jpg http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w40/Kenshin1984/DSC00017_zpsb04dd686.jpg http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w40/Kenshin1984/DSC00012_zpsf6d777f6.jpg http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w40/Kenshin1984/DSC00014_zps43efa9bc.jpg http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w40/Kenshin1984/DSC00008_zps881958b1.jpg http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w40/Kenshin1984/DSC00007_zps360830de.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DOHCEJ22E1 Posted July 13, 2013 Author Share Posted July 13, 2013 The red Subaru is an LGT w/Outback bumper & a full EJ257 swap, 6spd & Brembos included. No suspension change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DOHCEJ22E1 Posted August 14, 2013 Author Share Posted August 14, 2013 Update: The car is now in my garage waiting for a 5 speed manual swap. Unfortunately, I can find no one to help me, so it will take time to remove as I have to do the work myself. Until then, I'll be in a 2000 Saab 9-3 SE turbo. I will have to step out of the Subaru game for a little while but when I come back, you will see a massive jump in progress on the LGT. Later!

pleaidestar Posted August 14, 2013 Share Posted August 14, 2013 Good luck man, I would help out if my arms were long enough..super interested in how and what is needed to do all this, a 98 legacy 5speed just became available for salvage in my area.. had thoughts of trading her for a maroon 95 five speed sedan with 108k on it..but mine has sentimental value and looks way better bodywise.

I'll take pictures of the removal of the auto transmission to the installation of the manual one. I could trade mine in for a manual but then I'd be giving up the work I have already done for something that is unknown. Not really worth it in my book.

DOHCEJ22E1 Posted November 16, 2013 Author Share Posted November 16, 2013 So, I'm pretty certain that the car will be getting a 20R/22E hybrid in the coming future. For now, I am going to focus on driving the 22D as a 5 speed & see how that goes. The twins will be ditched for a single turbo setup unless I can find a way to convert the twin setup into a parallel setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DOHCEJ22E1 Posted July 24, 2014 Author Share Posted July 24, 2014 Update on this car: Game over. I let someone borrow it, they broke it in more ways than one, I couldn't pull enogh money together to fix it, sold it to another Subaru guy, they parted it out and cut the body up for scrap, or so I was told. Either way, it is gone, and so am I until my next LGT. Until next time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
