EJ20 vs. EJ22 vs. EJ25 in an EA82 body-Opinions?
I had a 87 gl turbo wagon, that i was going to put a WRX in it. I already put the wrx trans in and the wrx rear end in. I had a complete 5 lug swap in it also. The peddle assembly was a little difficult also, there is alot of fab work to do, be ready for that. I started to call the car My money pit project.The motor will fit just barely betrweeen the frame rails, but it will fit , also you need the cross member from the xt6 if I remember right. In the long run I took all of my parts back off and got rid or the car. It was costing way to much money .It was fun but the ej 22 is alot easier and alot of fun to do and it does not take but a week end to do it. Also not bad on the pocket.

5 lug swap difficulty?
I put a impreza AWD trans in a 87 gl wagon. For front axles, I hink I found a shop in Tigard that can make them. I'm in the process of putting the 2.2 in now. and thanks to Pooparu, I put a LSD 4:11 rear end in it. Will get back with results on axles

What causes 85 and 86 GL's steering wheels to be loose?
If you do a complete dash swap to a 87 , you will get rid of that problem. To the the dash swap it only takes a couple of hours to do. It is easy to do. Go to U-pull it and get a 87 dash and wiring harness and it is a plug and play.

4wd to awd and other ?s
Well so far the swap is going easy. I got the middle section of a ej trans x-member and drilled out my stock ea, x-member and it fits perfect. Now for the fear section may be more difficult. The car has a SJR 4 inch lift on it already

4 to 6 lug conversion question
Pop out two of your lugs opposite of each other on you suby hub. Then you can use the two lugs that are left to bolt up to a 6 bolt pattern and there is your pattern

The brat leaks, maybe from the gutter?
Yes I have a 87 gl wagon and I had water coming in and could not find the leak. One day I was cleaning the dirt out of the gutter rail and to my surprise, there is a body seam. It is where the roof meets the door pilliar. .there is body sealer that the factory used and over the years ,it cracks. So I scraped it out and cleaned it good and resealed it. No more leak! Now on two years and I live in Oregon. and it does rain a little here. P.S. you have to look good for the seam.
