subarubrat Posted June 2, 2004 Share Posted June 2, 2004 A stinkin water pump. Lets hear it for the EJ25. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted June 2, 2004 Share Posted June 2, 2004 That's quite impressive. Would you mind filling us in a bit on exactly how this engine is producing that much power? I assume it's got to be turbocharged and running pretty high boost, surely with a plethora of additional modifications. Is it the phase I or phase II EJ25?

subarubrat Posted June 2, 2004 Author Share Posted June 2, 2004 DOH< I transposed two numbers and gave myself another 45 horses, that only works on hondas. It is actually 305 and has been for about 3 years now. The total mileage is about 138,000 with the first 38 being non turbo. The engine is turbo'd, intercooled and has a stock block and crank. The heads have been cleaned up, better cams with no overlap, and exhaust is through a 3 inch stainless system with 2 fake cats and no muffler. This is a 99 Impreza RS, P1 suspension, 22B vents/wing, 22mm sway bar, 9.5Lb flywheel with a clutchmasters stage III clutch, and a few other toys. The front seal on the pump failed and it was leaking out the wheap hole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

subarubrat Posted June 4, 2004 Author Share Posted June 4, 2004 I just realized this is the only one I had online, I will have to upload more. This one is about 2 years old, the headlights have since gone back to stock after having 3 lenses break and it taking 4 months to get each replacement.
