Thanks very much, shows some good data for the frankie builds!

So which line is who on the dyno chart? Sorry if I suck at reading them.

Lucky for him, he's MAYBE 30 minutes from at least half a dozen reliable, big name shops.

UEL single port headers (updated post)
wentz912 replied to sube101's topic in Products for your Subaru
Would it be too outrageous to ask for a turbo, single port header? I'm gathering parts to turbo my NA EJ22. Can you handle it?- 39 replies

Any interest in some JDM headlights and some H&R springs for this monster? I've got an extra set of both since I decided to lift my second wagon instead of lowering it. -
Bratman18- Does your friend have the information for his source on them still? It'd be worth looking into at least. Gloyale- First off, this wagon won't be much of a "wheeling" rig, just a mild logging road bomber and stuff like that. As far as two hands on the wheel goes, that's never been a requirement while wheeling my SA'd 4runner on 37" tires and locked F/R. Maybe our "wheeling" styles are different, I'm not sure. I've wished for a third foot more than once while running manuals in the woods though. More on topic though. I'm convinced that, with the right design the existing cable clutch systems on either an EA D/R manual OR an EJ AWD manual could be adapted to a motorcycle type hand lever operation. It WILL have to be a custom one off part, but I have access to that sort of tooling.

I'd love to hear the story! want a manual in this thing baaaaaad

Pedals all curve wrong direction, less space to work with, brackets are dissimilar. I've been able to compare photos of each and I just don't think it's worth doing. Plus, I like making one off stuff AND I'd be able to drive two footed in the woods

You need some sweet JDM headlights for this monster -
So, I have a 1996 Legacy Postal Wagon in my possession. I would like to make it a five speed versus the standard 4EAT that, to the best of my knowledge, ALL of these cars were. The body is a little rough on this car, so the current plan is to lift it and use an EA D/R 5 speed transmission, unless I happen to fall into a smoking deal on an AWD D/R box. However, my biggest hurdle at this point in time is that the pedal sets for RHD five speeds are incredibly difficult to come by, and are rather cost prohibitive when/if I could get my hands on one. Soooo, with that being said I think I might be able to craft a hand operated clutch lever, similar to that used on motorcycles, but with much more leverage required, as well as a longer throw, that could be mounted on the shifter, and allow me to use a 5 speed transmission in my AT equipped car. I haven't yet started designing or sketching yet, but the idea popped into my head this afternoon, and i thought I'd propose it here. What do you guys think?

Dang! I should almost have you do my two cars! They both need paint pretty bad. -
Beliefs don't tell me anything, I need to hear from someone that KNOWS. I am just going to use a transmission from a same year car, so it will still be cable clutch so no concerns with mounting a master or slave cylinder. Really just need to know about the pedal box. Found a guy a few hours from me That has a JDM Legacy GTB that's a five speed, waiting to hear back from him with pictures of his pedal box.
