Subafly Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 I was wondering if there has been an ea82 conversion done, is it possible? Thanks Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beataru Posted August 5, 2007 Share Posted August 5, 2007 HOLY CRAP I HAVE NEVER SEEN SOMEONE POST IN THIS!!!!! well, I know people love to do WRX swaps, and some have done Ej257 swaps, so it is definatly possible, but then again, it may be difficult.

ShawnW Posted August 6, 2007 Share Posted August 6, 2007 The early Vanagon conversions were EA81 and ea82 but they didnt prove to be as much of an improvement as the Ej22 over the Wasserboxer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subeman90 Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 Correction: they were more reliable but still short on power where the wasserboxer was neither reliable or powerful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subafly Posted August 7, 2007 Author Share Posted August 7, 2007 well good to know. My grandpa has a an 83 vanagon and needs some more gusto for going up hills and such. My grand parents like to travel with it and want something reliable. Thanks, Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beataru Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 On a different note... At my Voc tech school (EVIT) someone in the staff owns an orange transporter, there fairly rare arnt they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The truck models are VERY rare in the USA. Technically anything of the chassis that the Vanagon and truck/crew cab are built on is a "transporter" but I know what you mean.

beataru Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 Ok thanks, it looks ***************in but I have never seen it move, it is always in the same spot every single day... and I even get their at about 7:20 every day and class doesnt start untill 8:05, so either its a member of staff who gets there uber early or it is someones and they just leave it there, its looks to be in super perfection as far as condition goes, I wonder if they know how rare they are... Ill give him 50 bucks for it how sweet would that be!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
