Most important thing must have more than ten psi oil preshure hot at idle to have good enuff bottom end to be worth doing heads on should be 15-25 10 is min

nope two days later 420 agian had had a talk with one of the apprentices at are local subaru dealer he said they reflash the ecu to fix problem i have no way of doing thiss and the dealer will not do thiss as a service or admitt it exists at all :banghead:mabee if i send 50 cars there in a row it will help i fugure its a subaru ecu callabration problem is just to sensitive

is one of the next steps we are looking at any ideas for a kit for subarus and how whould it mix with nos ?

oh and my two bitts make sure distributor is grounded to block as silly as it sounds and check ig fuse and the black under hood fuse box for burt fusabble links and the main power feed to under hood fuse box very rare to loose spark ushaly looses the injector pulse the distrbutor has two curcuts one controls spark and one controls injector pulse check to c if it pulses injector when cranked

i have a good used crank for the early 25d out of a 96 outback

no egr on a 251 and the egr sets its own codes funny thing the test car stoped turning on the light about 300 kms after the lucas feul treatment it hasent turned on the light in 3 trips up the hill so back to feul injector problems bett they get pluged or sticky or just dont move enuff feul

we dialed the nos down to a 50 shot was making good times untill got boged down and loaded when got loaded the # 1 piston cracked and pices got on top of # 3 and smashed plug changed plug and she still ran but has piston damage agian so the delma is how to get anuther 300 hp out of what i have the cars in my class are making around 500-1000 hp and for me to get on top i need at least 400-600 hp right now i'm 300 at best need some ideas on what to do next lighter longer more hp i have my lanch perfect traction is perfect suspention is good just need more motor or managment anyone whant to sponser me a race motor

oh i see thiss alot check the wire harness where it has the flexable conduate btween the body and the hatch likes to break there as thiss is where it moves last one had 4 broke wires and was shorting the brake lights out i also see it on legacys and foresters and outbacks and justys even on sedans always where the harness moves

front ujoint in rear driveshaft have had 3 in a row all toast one destroyed the tailshaft on trans

Have heads checked for cracks in exhaust ports as was commen problem

so many naked motors love it throw dem dam covers away lol well on the ea82 anway or mabee the ej 22 na all of them mind you the rocks do get in there my buggy runs a cover and still has many rocks and drit packed into belt dam those belts are strong mine had eaten lots of dirt and never jumped yet

front diff is very vilent when it go's and the awd will be kicking in and out and banging

No i have a two peice drivshaft with a hanger berring i whould never use a one peice for that app because it becomes to long and will fight you put in a two peice drive shaft and hanger berring and will fix problem a stock loyale drive shaft is the right length i use a trans xmember bolted to floor to hold hanger berring up works realy good have done many 5 speed swaps into the 80-84 cars and always use the two peice shaft

have a five speed 99 forester and the 03 auto both live up the same hill both set 420 going up that hill it makes no sense they also have a 97 auto but it sets the 420 on evry 3rd or forth trip but on the same hill is a 6 km very steep hill with slow corers on it the other fifty car set light all over the place have not been able to find a cure yet and i cant get the 420 to show up when i test drive takes some miles for it to turn on the one car she drove it 1500 kms after i shut light off before it came back on average is about 500- 1000 kms to turn light on the least ive seen is 100 kms but all over the place and many cars with 420 i dont think thiss problem will fix easy

Man i love my ectv on my 91 justy hold it to the floor all day every day let the bastard slip dosent break fells weird as hell but gos right to redline holds at redline and hauls rump roast 3 engine later and still same ectv they got a bad rap for pump shaft problems and brushpack problems but when they work they work good what scares me is the outback one uses the exact same size of ectv parts as justy and the berring on the load side of drum gets super loaded and will fail on justy they used a 12 ball berring to try and fix thiss with no luck i bett thiss trany will have same problem because the chain pulls sidways on drum

nope dont agree have run rediculous drive shaft angles with no problems my dayly driver has way steeper angles than that and its a 83 wagon with five speed and sti motor has 4 inch lift on back with stock steady berring hight and mount the drive shaft gos up to stedy bering at a realy steep angle then strait into trans from steady berring no vibrations and no problems one pice drive shaft or two ????????

I still go with sezied ujoint in rear shaft or wheel berring

no worrys unless has hard part damage the materail from the clutchs will not hurt tourque converter or pump but if you find any meatal pices stop and get a core

so i rebuilt my toyota 4 piston calipers and moved the peadal ratio and put on a smaller master to help hold it back at stall it only has rear brakes so now i can hold it at the line at 3500 rpm stall is all the brakes can do to hold it back it gets angry the front lifts right up and the back drops almost to the ground jumps out of the hole was getting it to pull the front wheels off the ground on the tests in front of my house see how she do's thiss weekend

yes they are realy efected by elavation everytime they climb the pass or go up in elavation it seems to affect the auto cars more my test 03 turns on the light when they pull the hill on way home is a substantial elavation increse but i still think its lean and just shows up more on hills anyway is still driving me nuts will keep trying

Tip the knock senser grounds to its base file the base of senser to get good contact and file the block where it bolts up to get a good ground have had many set code when is poor ground

the low reverse clutch pack is the very last pack at bottom of the case after you pull the sub asemblys out you do not have to remove the valve body diff must come off and pump houseing evrything else comes out check high drum pack and drum surface and band cange out the clutch packs and good to go i always like to keep the stock unit if at all posibble becuse is matched to car

well that fixed it holy crap cant hold it back anymore runs smotther than ever did vacume came up i also changed the header pipe for a stock one to try and trap more heat seems to work way better and geting way more heat out of the pipe tore the rear axle apart testing it up my street shearded the shaft clean off then the oppeset tire turns to smoke and sideways she gos good sign its maken power off to the races subaru 2.5 v.s 517 dart or 440 dodge or 383 stroker or the 454 all on nos well if your going to play with the big boys better bring a subaru

not many people around with exhaust gas anilizers anymore i dont have one but i know the smell of lean and they all got it or nox if you perfer if you follow one of theese cars up a hill with drivers foot to the floor no cat smell not rotten eggs and if it was anythig else whould stink like catts not enuff feul way to lean burning subaru droped the ball one feuling there engines trying to make milage standards I still think its callibrated way to lean and the o2 hitts a wall trying to get the feul trim ritch enuff and setts a code for what it thinks is wrong I think a catt is like a engine needs feul to work
