do you have access to a garage, tools, or an engine hoist?get a set of wrenches (or sockets) size 8mm-18mm, an ajustable wrench, a crow bar, a hammer, 2 hands, and some elbow grease.while both motors are out, switch the accessories off the original motor onto the new one, make sure everything is tight.then take the hoist and sit the motor in its correct position (it might need a little convincing with the crow bar).first bolt up the tranny and flywheel, so the motor can move around a little.then bolt in the motor mounts, ect.you want the motor totally bolted in before connecting electrical wires, and linkages.then add oil and gas.in case, when you go to start it, be ready to shut it off.do you have a timing gun?you could also find someone to do it for around $4-500.its probly a good days work, but you will learn how to do many things in the process.let us know your decision & good luck with it.

if you want a soob, i would offer around $250, or look for somthing a little better.is it a wagon?it must be an ea81.and a five sp?? good luck with your decision. jon

i am pondering a ea82t swap into my brat.who was it that did it on the board?how was the performance?did much welding need to be done?does the engine vibrate against the frame rails?any advice?i found a 87 xt turbo 5sp (no title) for $75 so i could swap everything out of that into the brat.seems like it would be a fun project.are they pretty snappy?i still love the brat as is, but kind of getting bored around here, and want something to work on.any info appreciated. jon

there is pics of my 2 at this address: http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showpost.php?p=262472&postcount=3 very neat cars.the 7 grand number was just for ha ha`s on another post.anybody else?

Ok Who Bought it? i see its already sold.nice looking little car

looks like a heater blower motor:drunk:

this is not a charity get a job

did i do something offensive?just asking if the motor was still 4 sale.thanks anyway

hey moosens, do you still have that ea71 motor for $40?

this may sound stupid, but what does WRC stand for?

yea, thats the new style.saw it on trading spaces i was thinking of a ea82t as a night stand:brow: nice work:headbang:

is that the one out of the want ad digest? very nice score

where did you dig them up? keep the red one the way it is.5sp mt`s are very hard to find in a turbo legacy.plus it will save alot of work on the swap.the body don`t look too bad.any more pics? oh yea, NICE SCORE:headbang:

i know there is someone here good with photoshop.have them take a wagon picture, and make it look like a brat.this way you could see how it will look and where to cut.then take out the recipricating saw, and start cuttin:grin: good luck with it jon

i wonder how many inches of lift that is?i like the chevy wheels.thanks for the pic

any pics of a lifted gen 1 brat?i couldn`t find any, just want to see how it would look.i am looking into having mudrat build one 3 inches.was also thinking about peugeot steelies to beef it up. jon

dude, we got matching Brats:headbang: http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=32771check on ebay for a motor out of japan with low miles.they usually are around $250.contact syrinx for the other parts at: holdfire4@yahoo.com .he`s a good guy to deal with. keep on truckin jon

i like the wheels though:brow:

i`d look further.it looks rusted real bad.no sense in buying junk, when you could hold off and buy something nice.just keep an eye out and i will also keep an eye out for ya.how much do you have to spend?

Mudrat, please pm me with some info on your gen 1 lifts.price, can they be shipped.i would appreciate it, jon

brakes were an option i couldn`t afford when we bought it.

i`m not sure about tongue weight, but the trailer weighs 2100 pounds.no electric brakes, the truck did all the stopping, the fastest i did was 35 going down the road.it was pretty fun.:cool:

yea that is the ultimate hauler, but its got 6 cylinders, its diesel, its heavier, bigger, taller, and ITS NOT A SUBARU:lol: its still pretty nice though:cool:

look at the pic below.i hooked my brat up to my camper today and towed it down the road for a small repair.towed pretty good considering the brat doesn`t way much more than the trailer.so you can go 4 wheelin while haulin
