EJ20 Single Turbo - Can a 5spd D/R handle it?
i am speaking of a 5spd behind an ej205, with 227hp stock(just what i read, not what i claim).if the starter spacing is the only problem with using an ej flywheel, i may try to figure that out......because all of this is lames..... it just gets me ya'know.no one knows what a wrx clutch is going to do behind an xt6 pressure plate.but they want to theorize, it won't work, it won't work. well ************ , on paper communism is perfect. cheers, brian

EJ20 Single Turbo - Can a 5spd D/R handle it?
i do not know if the xt6 pressure plate will work or not......but it is one of the things i will try when it comes to putting the trans in..... i just wanted this to be solved already.and when i read everything thus far , i was dissapointed...... another reason to go to an automatic...i guess... i started looking into this about a month ago again.as i finally had all the parts to do it.well, kinda.and was down to fingering out what i needed to do. everyone here is giving good advice.but still none have the experience specifically of what we are speaking about.which sucks...... who's gonna do it first?:lol:regardless , we all need to find a remedy that we like....and can afford......i wanted one of those ej d/r 's from oz.... but that boat did not float..... cheers, brian

Outback tire to strut clearance advice wanted
1/4"!!!thats alot!you know, you would not have been able to fit the 75 series anyway without spacers. oh yeah, spacers.and if you worry about the strength of spacers, i know toyota trucks that are running 36" tires with 1" aluminum spacers beatin the livin hell out of them....... i also know a couple of soobs doin it.. i personally would not worry about it to much.it is one of those things we have to deal with.cheers, brian

4 to 6 lug conversion question
i have run with both.on the same car,a couple of different times. i used a transfer punch the same size as the rim hole, while it was partially bolted to the hub with the two studs...... that was good enough for 85 down the backside of snoqaulmie several times fully loaded.....and everywhere else that i went. i also redrilled a couple of rims to use on the front.those were less than exact, and i still never had any issues. as far as safety is concerned.i have seen some hack jobs on this mod.and noone has ever wrecked from it.i know folks that have ran 33" tires on cast drilled hubs and beat the piss out of it.they are plenty strong enough.it has been proven. 35/64ths is the proper size drill bit, use a ton of lubrication when doing this, and go slow on the rpm's if your press is adjustable...... i had my setup on 2 different rigs and never had any issues....... ima try to find one of the brat as well....

Godzirra! 90 legacy project!
moving the trans and engine back is a good idear....i will also be cutting the front off of that car....kinda...actually, i should be starting tomorrow..:grin:but if you find that moving the trans tunnel is to much fo ryou , you can always move the wheels a tad bit forward and get a great approach angle... cheer, brian

Godzirra! 90 legacy project!
just think of it as following the existing frame rails.this will give you something to mount shocks off of, and your engine, in stock height.like this , if you will.... cheers, rbain
