angerthis Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 I'm so stoked after breaking the transmission in my 86 Subaru rx four door sedan I thought for sure I would never find another 3.7 dual range transmission ever again lo and behold searching through my local Craigslist here I find A loyal wagon was lifted had some to bumpers on it the guy was only asking $300 so I go and decide to take a look at it what do I find an LSD rear disc brakes and 3.7 gear ratio transmission out of an Rx and to top it off the wagon also had a 2.2 swap and a set of Pujo 15in wheels talk about my lucky day for a parts car I ended up picking it up for 250 bucks oh yeah not to mention the reason why its a parts car no title and a wiring harness is one heck of a rats nest I did the EJ 2.2 in my RX it looks nothing like this bad wiring harness swap 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ferox Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 That is a notable score. Well done. You made your money back or more with every single extra item you listed. Do you think you can title it?...that wagon body looks nice and I really like that color. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can iv got the paperwork to go forward with filing a banded vehicle but I'm not sure if I'm going to go through with it only because I need the transmission for my RX and I will be EJing my 3door coupe I will reegear the LSD to 3.9's and mite as well throw the rear disc brakes on it as well. as for the lift kit I'm not sure exactly what I'm going to do with it yet I'm not a big fan of 6 inch lifts. as for the body it is in really good shape the only bad spots are where they cut the fender well corners for the tires the interior is in very nice shape so if any of you are interested in just the body I'll let it go cheap or I'll just have to cut it up throw the pieces of it in with scrap metal and part of out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was like 23 miles down the Mount Baker Highway my RX with an EJ 2.2 in it, Honda Accord front coil springs in the rear of my RX with a 2 inch lift tows it just as good as any big truck would in fact I even tow legacies the same way with that car 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
