My pipe-dream for low rpm turbo spooling:
That motor has single port heads right? I guess a twin scroll turbo wouldnt work then... You could do the leaf blower trick
-
Ground Clearance
Ya, I actually think my Impreza would have better body clearance in that reguard... Without the bumpers (not the metal part, the covers) , and with a body lift, it could have very steep entry/departure angles.

My EJ22 Chronicle Update(10/2) PIX(10/2)
Ya, its pissing me off, mine is grounded indefinatly at the moment due to smog... I'm thinking swap now cause of it, and cause of the access to people who can actually do swaps in this area. Money of course is the main issue...

What will you have to do to get the legacy tranny to fit? Different axles? custom length driveshaft? Im very curious about the details...

My EJ22 Chronicle Update(10/2) PIX(10/2)
VERY nice, I didnt know the motor mounts were so close to being the same... Got any pics from under the mount so we can see the bolt holes? Oh, and what tranny will you use?

Legacy Lift Kit with large tires
Hey thanks for the offer, but my Impreza isnt setup for being lifted (its more of a track/mountain road twisties car)... And I dont have the money to change everything that would need to be changed, but ya I am thinking about it in the future when I have money and a second car

LSD in an Impreza...
I'm running a WRX rear LSD in my '95 that has a 4.11 RS tranny. Basically, you can run any rear subaru EJ differential you want as long as you use the ring + pinion from that transmissions drive axle.

Legacy Lift Kit with large tires
I dont think it is different. I know the strut tophats are the same bolt pattern. The engine crossmember and tranny crossmember have the same bolt patterns. I think everything is the same for using a body lift.

Flossin the 15" wheels + new tires!!!
Yup, totally stock... And old I think the rear struts are dead, but I cant tell for sure since I dont know what they are supposed to ride like when they are new! Thanks, its good to hear that... I'm still stuck at the whole smog thing though, its spewing black, white and blue smoke now I really dont know how to fix it. Trying to find a local shop that can work on it and actually knows something.

5sp AWD vs Auto Transimission AWD
Ya, the VTD (02+ wrx, Baja turbo, 5EAT 05+ legacy) autos are supposed to do that... I think the front diff is still open though.

MAJOR brake problem... (after install)
I put on the anti-squeel brake stuff, double checked everything, and it was all fine... So, I ran it without wheels, and it worked fine. BUT when I put on the wheels, omg insane metal scrape noise! I turned the wheels and found it, you wont believe it either... The stupid ebrake is rubbing just barely on the 13" wheels Solution: Buy tires for the 15" pugs I have and install them, LOL! Im not going to adjust the ebrake because in order for it to operate where it clears the 13" brakes the light comes on, which isnt right. So Ill just leave it like this and do the 15"'s.

Its not me I worry about with the noise, its well, everyone else in suburbia who will murder me cause of the noise
-
MAJOR brake problem... (after install)
Its not on, I gave it several yanks several times to be sure. The pads seem to be right, unless they have too much material, they are metal masters. I spun both brakes with the wheels off, they both do it, but one more than another.
