86subaru Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Found a nice outback spotThe seller says it is a 2.2 1995.i am thinking the sport only had 2.5 and came out in 96 or 97. Any help? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 No - it's an EJ22. Outback Sport is an impreza. Outback Sport didn't get the EJ25 until 2002. No impreza came with an EJ25 before 1998. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lmdew Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 The seller says it is a 2.2 1995 - This is correct! The 95 2.2 is a great engine, non interference so if the t-belt or idler pulley goes no valve damage. Dual Port Exhaust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
86subaru Posted November 5, 2013 Author Share Posted November 5, 2013 Ok.mind is lost today.only thing is he wrong. about the year then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
86subaru Posted November 5, 2013 Author Share Posted November 5, 2013 The body style is outback sport like 9 8.he must have years mixed up and motor is correct size then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 what do you mean "the body style is 98"? if you mean it has a hood scoop then maybe a 97+ hood was installed on an earlier model. or maybe it's a later model. you might want to ask specific questions - like why does it matter to you whether it's a 95 or 98? it's rather immaterial on nearly all grounds for such an old vehicle - they are all Impreza wagons with a few trim and other minor changes. at this point i don't see the value in speculating about an "incorrect year". impreza outback sport details and changes all here: http://www.cars101.com/impreza_archive93_96.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

idosubaru Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 (edited) Thanks.because i want a 2.2 not 2.5 .got it copy - that was answered in the first reply: it's an EJ22. Outback Sport didn't get the EJ25 until 2002. 1993 - 2001 impreza wagon/outback sport = EJ22 Some early years got EJ18's - like 1995 manual transmissions...check cars101.com for more info on those.

Gloyale Posted November 5, 2013 Share Posted November 5, 2013 Only the 2.5 RS had 2.5 A regular Impreza Sport from 95-2001 will have a 2.2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
