  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.
  12. Yea I know xt6.net. I am a member. But do you have to unbolt the tranny to put the headgasket on with the engine in the car to like rock the engine forward? Also This set has alot of gaskets do you have a pic of this cam carrier o rings? Whats it called on the parts bin? Is it this? http://oem.thepartsbin.com/parts/thepartsbin/wizard.jsp?year=1986&make=SU&model=XT4-4WDT-001&category=A&part=Cam%20Support%20O-Ring&dp=false Mine kit came with those. My kit is the same as the Inshino kit has same parts but mine has a few more.
  13. I was told my subaru has had a headgasket change before by the stealership. But I dont think so... Also can you carfax my supra as well the lady I got it from said the engine has been replaced but can't confirm that. Will these show up on a car fax? Also will what state the car were bought show up? Supra vin: JT2MA67L7F0159469 Subaru: JF2ZX75B0GFF302495
  14. Ok Thanks for all the info. The set I have i think has almost everygasket I need. Ill have more question when I start doing it. Do I have to unbolt the engine from the trans and rock it forward is that how you do it?
  15. Any tips on replacing the HG? Do i need to take the engine out or what? Also what is the factory torqe spec and what do you recomend for the headbolts? Also what is a common area for cracking in the head I heard they crack alot? HG should be here tomarrow.
  16. Yea most of the sti's are stock there. But few the wrx's have alot of work done to them. Some nice evos few supras there its ok. I go maybe once a month or so.
  17. Yupe 510's are sick but cost sooo much now... Cool a member in az. You go to the pavillons car show?
  18. I would WAY rather have a manual but I figured it would be very hard to do. What do you need to swap a manual in. There is one on ebay for 50 bucks for a ej manual awd tranny.
  19. Cool now my injectors are not firing either... I think my MPFI is not getting power because im missing 4 relays.
  20. Ok I just dont really want to swap the WHOLE drivetrain for a swap thats why I wanted to keep it auto.
