bakerman1 Posted January 8, 2005 Share Posted January 8, 2005 I am highly considering putting and ej22 and 5speed awd swap into my 84 Brat. It curently already has a 3" lift installed. and some other minor mods, but nothing big. I was thinking of picking up a whole car(legacy early 90's awd) for the swap. What all is involved and is it a major pain? Let me know. Thanks Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qman Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 Hey Ken, call John in Eugene. He has done a couple of them and can probably give you most of the details you need. You can email him at mudrat79@hotmail.com as well. Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
northguy Posted January 11, 2005 Share Posted January 11, 2005 Instead of the awd, why not a 5spd d/r? Mudrat makes a conversion kit for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bakerman1 Posted January 13, 2005 Author Share Posted January 13, 2005 Qman...I have e-mailed john but have not gotten a reply, can you e-mail or pm me his phone number? Northguy: I just might do the 5speed d/r.......that would probabbly be better............Thanks for the tip. Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ballitch Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 john is a busy man, after all he does alot of work on subies to make a living, it may take him some time to answer your questions, or ask me, and ill give ya some pointers. But i have no experience with EJ22's going into brats, so all my info will be from what ive been told or read from this board, and searches of course.

archemitis Posted January 13, 2005 Share Posted January 13, 2005 a whole car would be a cool idea, but all you realy need is the engine, harness, and the computer. that leaves a whole lotta legacy to get rid of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bakerman1 Posted January 17, 2005 Author Share Posted January 17, 2005 Well, I'm on my way to almost double the horsepower!!! I Talked to John and I'm having him do the swap. He has found a motor and I paypaled him the money for that. Oh how sweet my brat will be when finished. Hopefully early March. Anyways, I will keep you posted.

MilesFox Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 if you use a dual range you can keep the rear diff and tranny mount, and also your axle s will fit. if you use the awd you would have to make a tranny mount, and also either modify the suspension to use ea82 parts and 25spline turbo axles, or have a custom ea81 axle with 25 spline doj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
