  1. Ok well I just pulled the old ea82t out for a BHG job and some head and block welding. As I was doing it I press on one of the pistons and it goes down about 1/4 of a inch. So I know it has rod knock, bad block, badheads and bad wiring so.... EJ22 TIME. There is this junkyard here thats called pick n pull and they have a ej22 for 89 bucks. It has a auto tho and I need stick. What is best ej22 to get and what tranny will handle some good power? Im talking 300+ hp. 6 Speed would be great but they cost 3k+. Will a 5 speed legacy tranny work or a wrx tranny? Also what is needed for a ej22 swap. Im planing on turboing it. Is it worth it to save and weight for the junkyard to get a ej22t? What diffrence in ej22t and ej22 as far as horsepower goes. The ea82t is out of a auto 86 xt BTW.
  2. ops ment to put in other forum close thread plz
  3. Well thats not good. Sounds like your rings are washed out. NEVER PUT SEAFOAM IN YOUR OIL. It is not an oil. Change your oil asap and hope your rings are still good. Ive seen like 3 engines die from this stuff its fine for 1/3 in brake boosters only thats it then still change the oil right away.
  4. Well I was replacing my HG's and well the block and head are #&*@ed up. The passenger side block and head have a bad chunk taken out of it. Its between the water jacket and the combustion chamber. Ill post pics later. Well thats why the HG's have been changed like 4 times before i bought the car. So I guess Im going to swap a EJ in with a 5 or 6 speed most likely only RWD. Bad rump roast that I only have 100 bucks into the car.
  5. Damn looks fun. Cant wait to finish my $100 xt lol. I also have checkered seats.
  6. What weight of oil do you use? Did it do this in the summer?
  7. Yea Im changing my HG right now and I took the compressor off and has so much more room. Mine is seized up so kinda had to. Still had freon in it lol. Also it came with one belt only.
  8. DO NOT USE SEAFOAM IN THE CRANKCASE. This will fire you rings in less than5 mins of driving it. I know becuase a freind of mine with a b16 tryed it he only has 30k on engine and rings leak 40% now. Also if it is seals then when you floor it it will not smoke like bad rings will. Bad rings smoke bad at WOT. I would check turbo seals and valve seals. Does it only smoke on cold startups then when you let it warm up and turn it off the restart smoke again or not as bad? Seafoam works great in brake booster only use 1/3 can and change oil right after as it will leak past when you let it sit for 5 mins before the restart.
  9. MS is badass for old cars. Like my supra I think im going to use it.
  10. The brand I got is eristic nobody has used them so I wanted to try them out and give a review.
  11. I was thinking toyota supra and subaru combo lol as I have a supra ha.
