Legacy777

Not sure what to tell you. Have you called the dealer to ask for a wiring diagram? You can d/l wiring diagrams from subaru http://techinfo.subaru.com

It sounds like a faulty coolant temp sensor. The only reason I can see them thinking it's the FPR is that it's not keeping the pressure built up, but I'd suspect the coolant temp sensor over the fpr.

What sort of info are you looking to know about the transmission? You should be able to swap a WRX motor into your car. You'll have some wiring issues, but it should bolt up.

Just a quick question about the description on your website "The VF34 is similar to the VF30 but has improved spool up due to roller bearing design. This is the standard turbo on the New Age Sti RA Spec C. This turbo yields good throttle response and mid and top range power. It also uses a ball-bearing center section, which reduces friction and positively locates the shaft-wheel assembly to improve spool up and avoid turbo failure. " How are the bearings configured to utilize both roller bearings & ball bearings?

If I had to guess, I'd say they probly would. Do either harnesses have pictures of what the connector looks like that you hook up to the tail lights? You could compare that to the connector on your baja.

Intake or exhaust manifold?

I believe you could swap stuff from the later imprezas all the way up to 2001. You may want to check out http://forums.nasioc.com/forums as well.

Are you swapping stuff from an old gen car into another old gen car? It sounds like it, so I'm going to move this post to the old gen side.

That's weird it didn't want to move at all. Are you sure you got enough trans fluid in there? Are you checking the level with the engine running and have cycled through the gear selector?

As josh mentioned, you have to use the engine wiring harness from the 90-94 legacy so the engine connectors hook up.

I think 2900 is a little steep, however the mileage is pretty low. As mentioned, is it MT or AT? The cam seal is cheap, but you have to take the timing belt off to get at it...so labor is pretty much the same as doing a timing belt job.

The final drive is probably different. The SS has a 3.90 final drive, while the 95 I think has a 4.111 final drive. What trim level is the impreza? What engine does it have in it? The electronics are going to be different between the two cars, but you "should" be able to run the 95 Impreza 4EAT with the turbo legacy TCU. The turbo legacy 4EAT actually has a few things that make it beefier then the standard 4EAT, extra clutch packs and what not.

I don't see why it wouldn't work. I didn't read the whole thread. Have you posted in those threads to see if anyone has done it on the OB?

It's probably the JECS ECU. I'd suggest seeing what VRG3 thinks.

The stock turbo legacy came with the IHI VF11 turbo. The first gen turbo legacies were available from 91-94.

You really don't need to the lights. The plastic is pretty resiliant and shouldn't chip/crack from rocks, etc.

It's more then likely a subaru specific thing....does it look anything like the 90 ECU? http://www.surrealmirage.com/subaru/images/swap/19 Vikash (VRG3) on the legacycentral bbs would probably know more about it.

Just to add a tid-bit to this. The 92-94 MT's have 4.111 final drive ratio, but the 92-94 AT's have 3.900 final drive ratio.

There's probably water in the brake fluid or air, and as temps get higher with higher speeds, the issue gets worse. Flush the brake fluid and see how it works.

Yes, you can put the car in 5th gear, have someone stand on the brakes and you can loosen the main crank pulley bolt. It has normal threads. Left to loosen. Make sure you re-tighten the bolt to 120 ft-lbs, and it's not a bad idea to put medium strength locktite on there.

yeah, definitely go somewhere else.

If you have cold starting issues, the coolant temp sensor can cause problems if it's bad because the ECU uses it for cold start fueling correction.
