[Swapped GL-10 issues]

fixed the DR issue. still need to get defrost handled. thanks all! PROJECT INDEED.

[Swapped GL-10 issues]

I have a project i've been working on, it's a gl-10 with a 2.2 swap, DR transmission, and some other goodies.. my issues are

 

Defrost won't blow hot and, and there is cold air coming through the heater vents, when either on or off. Vacuum? Heater core? basically i get no hot air..

 

even more odd.. the previous owner installed a DR tranny in it.. well, when its in FWD its actually in 4hi, 4lo works normal, but when i spoob into 4hi, car goes into neutral, even if it is IN GEAR.. that may sound confusing.. its because it is. i can be in any gear 1-R, and if i put car in 4hi, it goes to neutral.. but when shifter is in fwd.. its in 4hi.

 

thoughts?

Yeah I live in sandy and pretty much what he said^. I over hear GD on the phone today talking to someone about a ej harness. So I'm going to assume this would be you? Haha. And our shop is in Milwaukee. Superior Soobie and Import. We were actually just working on Mike Apeals old wagon today, the lifted blue one.... Wiring ej harness mess.....

As far as the harness let me know if you want us to strip it for you, prolly could drop it off at my house because its closer than the shop. I live by the post office now. My parents live up on top of Colman rd.

 

One of our guys can prolly redrill the flywheel. As far as the adaptor plate, what/who made it?

 

Seems as though the sandy area lifted Subaru crowd is growing! Good to see it!

flywheel done thanks to Kris Gil-Night.  i would love to drop that harness off!!!! i'll be working on rig over the weekend.. i did call ssi a couple days ago. i have a 94 wagon, outback struts and a big ugly brush guard on the front as well. this GL-10 is gonna be sweet. we gotta get a crew together and rally. but in the mean time i want to get it finished.. haha.. so.. wiring harness. digital dash, and the tach.. easier to get aftermarket tach than wire existing one? I'm also having a real hard time sourcing an obd2 harness and edu.. i have obd1 but rick said it was a pain in the rump roast.. but i might just have to go that route anyway.

There is a guy on Hoglem Rd which is off Bluff Rd that could do it. He is semi retired now and builds hot rods for peolpe, rebuilds engines, machines, and a lot of other custom stuff. I think there is also a machine shop behind fred meyers but not sure on that. Then there is a Darell on Compton Rd who builds custom differentials, gears, axels, lifts, bumpers, and off road stuff like who probably would do it if hes not busy. Parked out in front of his is his lifted nissian truck with flames, lifted green suzuki samuri with custom front and rear bumpers tied together with the rocker protectors and inside roll cage, his lifted f-250 which is yellow/cream color, and he has a couple other rigs around like that to give you a idea what to look for if you go that route.

yeah sandy machine did my heads.. he said he doesn't have the right drill to do it.. thanks for the heads up.. this is the last little piece other than the damn wiring (not a little piece) pics coming soon.. lots to do still. any ideas on any other "mods" would be greatly appreciated

Are you the guy with the lifted white wagon with 6 lug wheels that runs around Sandy sometimes? A loyale, gl, or dl analogue cluster will be a direct fit as long as its a 3rd gen. Here is a loyale turbo with turbo analogue cluster on craigslist and it's parting out in oregon city http://portland.craigslist.org/clc/pts/4363960783.html. Or if you find a non turbo cluster just get that cluster and put on a turbo gauge somewhere. People have put in legacy dashes or clusters but it just doesn't look right but it is do able if you really want to put it in.

also, its a swap so its an n/a 2.2 just need regular gauges.. but want something clean.

nope mines a 94 wagon with a big brush guard.. lifted with forester rims. thanks for the heads up!!! know anyone that re drills flywheels? or that would have what i need for the swap? i have the adapter plate already

[Swapping Dashes during and EA_EJ swap..]

so, to make wiring and what not easier.. i was wondering if i can swap out the digital GL-10 dash for a legacy/loyal/gl dash? 

 

and what are the best parts for the swap i.e. suspension, axles, performance, bolt on stuff from other models.. its a fl-10 thats already lifted.. lets make this thing a beast!!
