  1. You may use the rear cradle from a any of the following

     

    90-94 Legacy,

     

    93-02(at least) Impreza,

     

    95-99 Legacy or Outback(don't use the outback spacers.)

     

    Forrester will not work, they are taller (like Outback but with spacer height built into cradle, instead of separate blocks)

     

    Now the sway bar links and radius arms differ (your 94 shouldn't have a rear sway bar so that makes it easy) but all vehicles listed above have radius arms that will work.

    Awesome! Just the information I was lookin for, thanks a lot!
  2. Well I went and looked at the car this evening. Seemed to idle alright, no cel which I thought was odd because they already cut the cat off. When the key is turned on engine off the cel comes up on dash but goes away when engine is started. I'd say rear separator plate is leaking, went for a test drive and got back and smoke just pouring out from under hood oil all over y pipe. Also engine oil was overfull. Looked to be a quart or so. There was a new filter on it so maybe they added too much? And crank pulley was wobbling. I've never had one that the crank pulley wobbled on. So what's the fix for that? New pulley? New woodruff key? anyway that could of ruined the crankshaft? Other than those issues trans slipped a little, it felt way under powered. Could it just be a few teeth out of time? Wobbling pulley cause it to jump time?

  3. Yes I am in the rust belt but believe it or not the outback is pretty clean underneath. Only been in weeds for past month or so I got it cheap and pulled the ej22 and put in my other outback that the ej25 hg went on. I have all the space and tools and well pretty much anything I'd need, except maybe time lol thanks again for all the helpful information

     

    I'm digging the idea of a Impreza sitting at outback height. And I've always heard ej18 are great motors. Reason car is so cheap is owner now has put a lot of money and parts in it trying to cure a loss of power problem. Says he notices it going up hills. Almost sounds to me like a clogged cat (have any suggestions?), but for no more than what I'll have in it I could part it out and still come out on top. I have all intentions of figuring out what's going on and driving it for a while before I make my mind up on the swap.

  4. Hello I have a 94 loyale with 270k on the clock. She is wore out and just lost compression on cylinders 1 and 3. Nows where I get to the point. I also have an 86 I bought for the d/r trans, it only has 75k on it but it's carb'd. So my question is can I take the intake off of my spfi and bolt it to the carb'd? Is there anything else I would have to change? I looked them over a bit and it looks like it will bolt right up but before I go pulling motors I'm sure there's Someone on here that can shed a little light on the situation. Any info or advice would be much appreciated

  5. I just plugged them. I wasn't really sure what to do with them either. I'm also experiencing a really low idle. Like 2-300rpm before I swapped it it idles around 6-700 rpm. Not really sure where that came from. I looked all over for a vaccum line or something I may have knocked off but couldnt find anything.

  6. Thanks everyone! Just got it all buttoned up. Took me about 4 hours. I didn't have to splice in to any wires, I was able to unplug them further back and then the dual range harness plugged right in. Reverse lights work and 4wd indicator comes on the dash. All I need is some new manifold gaskets, tried putting back togeather with the old ones leaked pretty bad. Can't wait to take it out and play around a little!

  7. Ok so I recently bought a parts car (86 gl wagon) with a dual range transmission I plan on putting in my 94 loyale. From what I've read so far it's pretty much a straight bolt up? Do I need to use the rear diff out of the gl? Or are the rear diff gear ratios the same? I know I might have to splice on to the wiring harness.

     

    Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
