What'd you do to your FIRST Gen. Subaru today?


Recommended Posts

Yep!!! That's the ad. It's on bbslegacycentral too. The seller is quick to respond and has fair prices and judging by the awesome deal I was able to get very motivated to sell. I'll let you guys know how much I paid when I receive the exhaust, but it was less than his asking price. :icon_bigg

 

I want the Whiteline sways BAD too but I have to keep temptation at bay, lol. I first contacted him about the robtune package he had for sale, but it was gone quick. :mad:

 

I can't wait to install that bad boy!!!

 

I asked about the TD05 and it has very slight shaft play but is in great condition and apparently the play isn't out of the ordinary being a journal bearing turbo. I think the TD05 might be a bit too much for the stock ecu and MAF.

There's a couple(or more) of factory td05's on the wrx the H(2.5's)&L(2.0's). Not sure which one came with the 90°elbow. I have an extra IHI rhb52 off the ej20g, I posted pics of it compared to the smaller td05L a couple months ago. Going to be creating a for sale thread with lots of oem ej20g/22t engine parts, my shed is getting overwhelmed with boxes of parts. I got a friend with a 93 SS shell along with a Subaru Junkyard in his yard, so if anyone needs some hard to find oem parts, let me know. Edited by USLiberty

I filled up my BK with a bunch of SS bits.

Rough list: SS 5MT, two headlights, two corner lights, 8 SS axles, stock BPV, SS pedal assembly, two clutch cylinders w/slaves, WRX clutch cylinder and slave, MOMO wrx steering wheel, IACV, SS intake mani w/injectors and tb, WRX pedal assembly, 92 SS rear struts (taking off top hats and junking the struts), 3.900 VLSD :icon_twis, mbc, Mitsubishi eclipse BOV lol.

 

I Was also given an SS 4EAT and will have to make another trip and pick it up. My wife loves her 4EAT so I'll rebuild the spare 4EAT to handle moar horsez. It is a comfy trans I must say.

 

The 5MT was filthy so I took it to the car wash.

It was hard to unload but waaaaay harder to get back in the wagon. I'm a little dude and the trans weighs quite a bit more than I do. Took me about five tries to get it back in. I almost asked some crackheads for help.

It looks a lot better after a rough cleaning. After I got it back in I noticed a poor gal who needed a jump so got her car started and went home to make room in the shed for the trans.

Prettty psyched to have found this. There were two maybe I can get the other one someday, ha ha.

Got a furniture mover at HF strapped it down.

WRX pedal assemble next to SS assembly. They are almost identical. If I have time someday I'll show the minor differences.

WRX clutch cylinder vs SS clutch cylinder. The SS clutch assembly has a larger reservoir and some other ungainly parts. The WRX assembly is much simpler and apparently much improved over the SS.

Here you can see how different the transmission mounting brackets are.

I shifted through all the gears and put it in the shed for later. All gears turn smoothly. I tested it side by side today with another SS MT that had a bad first gear and it was easy to feel the broken teeth.

 

That's all for today, lol.

There was another 5mt with a bad gear with a vlsd. It would be a bitch to ship though. You can have one of my clutch assemblies and the SS pedal assembly but if I were you I'd just get a wrx assembly and get a jdm trans. From what I've been told the wrx clutch assembly shifts better than the SS. And if my SS 5mt breaks it was super cheap and I'll just get a jdm replacement.

 

Or if you want to wait you can have my cable actuated 95 trans and all it's supporting components but you'll have to wait until I swap in the SS trans in the spring. :)
