Yes. 4th gens were available with the 2UZ 4.7l. Mine is a 1st gen, though. I have a 4.0 1UZ in it. Install is far from complete, but it runs and drives (no cooling system, so very briefly).

Rallycross is a good time, and depending on the surface and track layout can be a real strain on the cooling system. The last time I raced one was in a fully rally-prepped STi, and I had to drive it down the road 1/4 mile and back to let it cool off after every run.

I know you've already done it. But when I scrap cars, I cut out the radiator support. Then the engine and transmission come out easy. I even made the upper radiator support bolt-in on my 4Runner during the engine swap. I had the V8, 4-speed auto and transfer case in and out of it several times, but left it all as an assembly.

Good engine. 5EAT is lovely when it works. I think higher failure rate than 4 speeds. Prepare for electrical issues. Rear tailgate harness breakage. Passenger airbag light fails and disables the entire airbag system. Any trouble code disables the cruise.

There's the buffer and a buffer cover Covers are discontinued, but there are still a few buffers in the Subaru of America warehouses, Any Subaru dealer in the US can order them. $15-20 ea

😬

Those Hyundais have an upper control arm. The shock is not designed to support lateral loads.

I've never needed more than a good hammer on a Subaru. My 8lb mini-maul usually pops it off in one hit. loosen, but do not remove, the bolt. And smack the end of the knuckle where the tie rod goes through it (not the tie rod itself). I rented a tool similar to the one linked for my Suburban, but the hammer-smack still did the brunt of the work.

It's not hard. 2 bolts for the washer reservoir, one hose clamp for the airbox, loosen the 2 bolts for the pitch stopper, one nut on the motor mount. Floor jack and a piece of wood and the spark plugs are super easy to get to.

Thanks for your contribution?

Airbox and washer reservoir out, pitchstopper loose, remove motor mount nut on one side, lift the engine and it will tilt up. Easy access to spark plugs/compression test.

I use partsouq.com a lot for various manufacturers, occasionally Subaru (I work at a Subaru dealership, so the VAST majority of my Subaru cataloging is licensed software right from Subaru of America), but similarly they don't usually have stuff right up to current years. parts.subaru.com has abridged diagrams for all current US models.

800211050 and 800211060 are the part numbers in the Subaru Catalog, and is the only part number I see for EA82 cars. (I work in parts at a Subaru dealership). I never did take the heads off an EA82 car, in fact I scrapped many running ones in favor of an EJ22. So I don't claim to know the dimensions. But those are the correct part numbers. They are discontinued. But my parts locator shows Nelson Subaru in Martinsville, VA having 5 of the 060 bolts in stock. If that's accurate, they'd probably be tickled pink to sell them.

"One for each direction" I remember him saying he doesn't want to have to separately fill the aux tank. He'd like to flip a switch while filling the main tank to transfer it up to the aux tank. And then activate the second pump to transfer it in the other direction when needed.
