I did a few searches on here and couldnt really find anything concrete about my question...When was the last year the EJ22 was used and in what model?....thank you all in advance for your knowledge and time....

Hey guys....had a quick question....will rear trailing arms from a 95-98 AWD impreza sedan fit on a 96' legacy AWD sedan? Any help would be appreciated, and thank you in advance for your time and knowledge

thank you all very much.....i have spoken to a few master techs and they have never heard of the phrase "torque bind"..????? nonetheless i appreciate your knowledge and time.....

the ECU is on the passanger side, under the carpet, directly below the glove box......just pull back the carpet and you will see like an access shield protecting the ECU....

Hello All.....I was just wondering if torque bind occurs both in automatics and manuals?...Also I have read a little bit in previous threads about it but still dont get exactly what happens.....Is there anyone who could explain it to me in detail?.....thank you in advance for your time and knowledge....

I know from my experience with snow.....if i have my regular tires on my suby....it doesnt give me a sense of security....i have actually gotten stuck with my reg tires....i also have blizzaks and they do wonders for me....i would say if you have any doubts as to weather or not you will have trouble dont try and conquor it...

NOOOOO its starting to look along the lines of a crossover....

yes, if the head gaskets were indeed blown and the vehicle was burning coolant....theres a chance that the coolant contaminated the O2 sensor.

I also have a 96 2.2 my front cam seals started leaking at around 120,000 so i would look at those...if they are indeed leaking you will see oil at the timing cover....Also I would double check the pan gasket......I know i have had some oil leak out of my seperator plate which is on the rear of the engine ( not exactly sure which models/ years had the plate)...but it USUALLY gets trapped in the bell housing......if you have some time i would clean off the entire underside of the engine REALLY well than drive the car for a few days and take a look again to see where the oil is located.....good luck!

alright thats what i thought.....thanks for the confirmation buddy...

Hey Guys....I have seen this on a few threads here and was wondering what exactly they are talking about......when someone refers to a part of the brake system as 1 pot, or 2 pot, or 4 pot......what specifically is the "pot" refering too or what does it stand for???????

Wheel Bearings?....Ball Joints?

i had the same problem.....i searched high and low for the missfire ( in my car is was P0302 =cyl 2 missfire) everything from "dropped valve guides" to plugs and wires, i even hooked up the oscilloscope ......it turned out that the fuel injector connectors were swapped from cyl 2 to cyl 4......now my suby runs perfect.......check that before you go replacing things.....i know on my 96 legacy 2.2 the injector connectors are color coated..... OH, also my miss ONLY occured when i was stopped at idle. i also had a very rough idle.

I know when i did my clutch job in my 96' legacy about 5k miles ago everything went great i had the trans out in under 2 hours but getting that thing back in with the car on jackstands in your driveway was hard as hell.....also i dont know if you have a seperator plate in the model/year but i would examine that pretty closely for oil leakage......just my experience....good luck!

If it happens that the EGR is the problem....I have bought tons of parts for my suby off of autopartswarehouse.com....i absolutly love it....terrific service, right parts, and great prices....just my preference though.....

well im not to sure about the bushings but for that little spring the easiest way is throw a jack under the trans unbolt the crossmember and it right there......Pretty Simple.... ( I tried with the crossmember in but i almost broke my hand:lol:

I have the same exact problem in my 96' Legacy....I just got finished doing a clutch in it and i noticed that the little spring that connects the shift rod to the stay rod was missing......I didnt bother getting it cause it was a semi-long ride to the dealership, but at first i also thought it was bushings....

i like 2.2 L....I have 185,000 on my 96 legacy and it still runs great...me personally i tend to shy away from the 2.5 because i have had some bad luck when it comes to timing belts.....96 2.2 is non interference...when (and correct me if im wrong) all 2.5 Liters are interference......just my opinion

Damn...You guys are lucky its been nothing but rain all day here in PA.....

Personally I would get a pair of cross drilled rotors...not only do they help with getting rid of heat they also dissipate any water that happens to get in between the pads and rotor. I have been looking for a while to upgrade my brakes... I have been looking at AP, Wilwood and Hawk Performance...just my two sense.

dont forget to Look Closely for any oil leaks!

I dont know im kinda likin the old body style.....nonetheless it is in the neighborhood of 300 AWHP!

Well you were right on this one.......i put a system in my car....so the guy said that is what fried it...i have like a 1800 watt kenwood amp goin to a rockford P3.....nonetheless thank you very much..(oh and i got the new one for FREE!)

assumingly enough the battery light doesnt come on if the battery is bad does it?

No I dont think i did get the lifetime alternator....i just cant believe that it would take like less than 4 months to toast an alternator......thanks for the insight guys
