Fairtax4me Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Most exploded views will only help if you already have some idea of what you're looking at. Most Subaru parts will say Subaru on the part somewhere so if there are random parts in the back look for part number or some other identifier/name on the part. You could also upload a pic of any parts you're not sure of and a lot of us here can help identify them. Google search for Subaru FSM will turn up service manual downloads but they're usually not well laid out. Can also check opposedforces.com, and try looking through parts diagrams there. 93 Impreza what size motor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

montana tom Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 On your imprezza ..It may be easier to source a used motor, at least a good short block...rather than splitting the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Undoubtedly. The learning curve on a case split is much too high. GD 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

idosubaru Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 On various Subaru parts websites you can look up a part and it’ll show it in an exploded view diagram with associated other parts. Look up the diff, driveshaft, cross memeber, suspension stuff and you’ll see the exploded views of all the parts. Post pictures here and we can tell you.
