    My new 1981 brat!!!

    Ya, I'm still digging around for the business card. As soon as I find it I'll post the information. Also I'll need to get that weber from you when you're ready to get rid of the motor and carb.

     

    sounds good. do you know a good Subaru guru near us that can remove the 2.5 heads and manifold on my 2.2 engine and install new heads and manifold. oh and while they are at it maybe install the 2.2 in my brat :lol: i have the harness and adapter plate.heck they can even put my 4 speed manual transmission and rear diff in also .... i don't know anything about engine building and less about how to wire up the 2.2. harness , the sooner i can get this done the sooner i can get the ea81 engine and Weber to you ! i was thinking about calling fixmysuby.com or another local shop but don't know if they do that kind of work.

    i am getting ready to do the 2.2 swap in my 83 brat when my friend saw that the manifold looks different then his. the engine was just bought off craigslist and is a out of a 1999 Subaru Impreza and is a phase 2 2.2 with what we discovered has 2.5 heads and manifold :banana:. my question is has anyone heard of this being done ? if so did it work or add any horsepower ? thanks .. thermal

    EJ22 engine and tranny swap questions

    in Subaru Retrofitting

    Posted

    i just picked up a 1999 Subaru EJ22 engine and manual 5 speed transmission. This set-up came out of a 1999 Impreza sedan with 100,000 miles, The package includes everything to do a complete engine swap i hope !! engine, transmission, complete wiring harness and ECU (ECM). Includes intake, throttle body, wiring, ignition, AC compressor, Alternator, Power steering pump and a ACT Streetlite lightweight racing flywheel

    so where do i start ?

    can i use The 1999 transmission ? it is AWD 5speed with 3.9 final drive, and includes rear drive shaft (prop shaft). .

    if not what tranny can i use ?

    will this engine work in a brat ? its a 1999 Impreza sedan ej22

    anyone in Portland looking for some $ide work that could help out with the install or and the wiring ? i thought their was someone that does the harness work on the board

    do i use the ACT Streetlite lightweight racing flywheel out of the 1999 doner or will my centerforce stage 2 clutch work out of my ea81 ?

    so many questions !!!!

    Help
