right now Im planning a 4 speed dual range swap into a '93 Impreza that has a 3.90 rear diff and 1.8
from my research, im going to need,
1) ej/ea adapter plate
2) reworked ea flywheel to match ej crank (according to numbchuxconversion write-up on the ej22 swap )
3) xt6 pressure plate with nissan 720 clutch release bearing (according to numbchuxconversion write-up on the ej22 swap )
4) lengthen/shorten drive shaft(depending on what the length of the 4sp is)
5) custom trans cross member
6) put 25 spline stubs in the ea trans or use the fwd impreza axles that have 23 spline inners
-
But 2wd Imp axles are pretty weak compared to the newer Outback and Forrester axles. For a heavy Outback or Forrester, or really any EJ chassis, it'd be better to put 25 spline stubs into the EA trans/front diff.
how does that work
-
The 4spd is a lot longer than the 5 spd, and not as strong. Not really worth it IMO
when it comes to subaru trans strength, for me anyways, its all relative.
if there were problems with the 4sp d/r trans being "weak" we wouldn't have as many successful ej22 running bigger than stock tires as there are on this site
thanks for the info on the 4 speed being longer, tho
-
front axles are also an issue. the axle stubs on the D/R are 23-spline, and your imprezas are 25-spline. Again, you might be able to make some hybrid axles with what you have, or '93-'94 MT imprezas have 23-spline inner axles.
so this means that the '93-'94 impreza front axles can be use in a '95-newer impreza to allow the ea tranmission to match up the ej hubs?
-
so i found a thread where this is discussed, sorry I will post this questions there but...
he is using a 5 speed. is my 4 speed any different other than have a 5th gear?
-
I have this idea rolling around and had a few questions.
I have a 4 speed d/r in my brat that im parting, and had a idea about putting it into my 2.2 impreza.
What is the final drive of the brat?
can I take the axles to the machine shop so that I can mate the impreza axles to the 4 speed d/r trans?
does anybody know if the brat drive shaft is the correct lenght?
I know that I will have to use
(1)the brat rear diff
(2)adapter plate and flywheel for the ea-ej
(3) fab up a trans cross member
(4) and .... answers to the questions above
any discussion on the matter is helpful, its all speculation for the moment

Get a wrangler teetering on 2 wheels (RF & LR or vice versa), and then open the doors. when you go to close them, you'll find the latch is inches off.
do it in a subaru....they'll open and close all day (unless it's really rusty, in which case, might be time to get a new shell. That was kind of the indicator on the PoopenVagon).
Thats good to know
just cause i want to know, how hard are you wheeling without doors on your wagon? Ive always thought a doorless lifted brat would look pretty sweet
-
arnt the doors a structural part on unibody vehicle?
the reason why you can remove the doors on a jeep are because it is on a frame
a unibody vehicle uses the whole body for strength including the doors.
if you made a tube frame door to put something back in the doors place then you would be fine, Somebody on here did it to there Brat
-
does anybody know if the 83 does have solid or vented rotors because i just bought a set of 83 calipers and now i may be screwed just like that gas tank i bought
-
Thanks GD
Its weird how they did that, i restored 1983 Brat a couple of years ago and now i have a 85 and people have got me thinking that stuff are different and .....
Everything Thing Is The Same hahahahaha
By the way General Disorder, ...... your not an rump roast
-
Is there a difference in the caliper between and 1982-3-4 and a 1985
Im thinking not, but i dont want to buy a caliper that wont work
-
So what are my options then, I can only fill up my tank half-way
-
well i guess i will see if i can cancel
-
well i ordered it, if it doesnt fit i will return it
I will give a full report when i find time to put her in
-
so i think i found a tank that will fit, what do you guys think?
1985 Brat

you probably should try sl-i.net or legacycentral.org

this is for a project that im working on. But from doing research it looks like it would be easier to use a pump anyways.
the reason why i was asking was because i wanted to see if i could knock off some fabrication of my list of things to do.
But there are more pros than cons to running a pump so that is what im going to do
side note: Does anybody have EJ22 with a FWD auto? I need a measurement from the front of the crank pulley to the back of the tranmission
-
My question is will a carbed subaru motor run if the gas is gravity feed?
So that you wouldnt have to worry about a fuel pump.
For example: how motorcycles are set-up
-
in some cases yes and no. if you upgrade the torque converter you might be ok but i would upgrade to a WRX tranny at least, but once you drive a 6 speed you cant go back. So i would say get an STi tranny, you will not be disappointed
-
Yes it is 2" blocks front and rear.....................
Jeff
looks good, some nice tires and it would look awesome
-
thats just a suspension lift?
-
what do you mean cut out the old fuel pump?
were you running two fuel pumps?
Where is the lo switch for a brat 4 sp d/r
in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Posted
Let me rephrase that question, Where is the actual switch that turns the light on the dash on?
I have a guy the want to buy the "switch",
I know how to put the trans into 4lo lol
