New decals up on the site: Subaru 360 script & Devil Graphic Coming soon: Gen 1 BRAT text and 4 Wheel Drive text from the tailgate. Just so everyone knows you don't have to buy the decals through ebay if you don't want to. You can just pay us directly.

BumP.

Update: So I went a little crazy cleaning up wires and clipped a bunch out of the EA harness that I shouldn’t have. Apparently even though the connectors were not connected to anything they were somehow intertwined with one another. So right now I don’t have any power going to anything. My ignition is dead. I’ve already checked the battery and the grounds. I put straight power to the group of nine wires that I cut out near the old battery location and got power to my ignition but it caused it to be backwards. So when I went to turn the car off it activated the starter. I’m not really sure on that one, but I’m having no luck recreating that mess of wires so I’ll have to go to the junk yard and see if I can find another early 80’s Subaru with a feedback carburetor and cut that end of the harness off and try and integrate it with mine. I feel like a total dumb azz, and especially when Matt told me to just leave it alone. Arrrrg! Well my journey continues and if anyone has any other ideas on how else to fix my stupid problem please feel free to comment, except for the fact that I shouldn’t be allowed to ever touch wiring again.

Wow, I thought someone would know this one right away. It is a strange box, and it wasn't mounted very well ether. As soon as I unscrewed the center screw from the little tray that sits under the glove box the thing just dropped out onto the floorboard. It was only held on by a single screw going through a thick zip tie. It was hooked up to the motor and I think the coin as well, but when I did my ej swap I got rid of all of that so the wires weren't connected to anything and they didn't run back to the main harness or fuse box so I just simply pulled it out. I'm afraid that it might be the ignition control unit, but I don't know where that is. According to my wiring diagram it has the same amount and same color wires as the diagram, but I can't imagine that Subaru would mount something this important so carelessly. I'm really racking my brain here to get this thing running again. It's killing me:mad:

It was up behind the glove box.

I pulled this and several other wires from my 1982 Subaru GL Hatch with feedback carb and now my ignition isn't working. I did an ej22 swap so I was trying to clean up some wires. Would this have anything to do with it?

We just opened an ebay store account and have put up some of the Subaru decals that we offer. Please keep checking back 'cause we'll be adding more every week. http://stores.ebay.com/bandercomindustries_W0QQ_trksidZp284.m184QQ_trkparmsZits%3DS%252BI%252BSS

I think I'm going to mount the surge tank on the inside passenger fender wall in the engine bay and mount the HP fuel pump next to it on the same wall. I'll leave the other pump where it is and have it pump into the surge tank then pump out of the surge tank into the motor, then out of the motor back into the surge tank and finally out of the surge tank back into the main fuel tank. In theory that should work, but I guess we'll see.

So what would my total cost be? I'm thinking that I might just mount it where the jack was located on the inner passenger side fender. Then mount the HP pump next to it.

nice rig:) I think it's time for a lift and bigger tires...

Update: So I went to the junkyard last weekend to get a few things to finish up this project. Bumper brackets, high pressure fuel lines, fusible link set-up from and EA82 and a 12 volt point from a Chevy berretta. I managed to get both the EJ and EA wiring harasses cut down and taped up. I fed all the wires though the cab of the car into the engine bay and plugged everything up that I could. I still need to connect the main wires but everything is sitting where I want it to be. Once I get all of my wires connected I’ll try and fire it up. If it runs then I’ll start to put the interior back together. Needless to say I didn’t get to take it around the block last weekend, but maybe next weekend. It's not as bad as it looks. I'm trying to make the engine bay as clean as I can so when I'm finished it looks factory installed. Trying is the key word here:)

sjrlift has the pitch stop adaptor on it. I wish that was available when I did my swap. Now I have to rig something up. Just something to take note of.

That's what I thought. So one is all wheel drive and one is 4WD (to the best of my knowledge there is a difference between the two)

I have a few...

I thought that the all-wheel drive loyales only came in automatics and the 5-speeds where push button 4WD.

Update: Well I just got the radiator put back in and hooked up. I've started to clip down my wires (both from the EA and EJ harness). I've also started to lay all of my wires out along the engine bay. I've also decided to mount the ECU in under the passenger side dash, just behind the glove box. It looks like everything will fit perfectly there. I also went and purchased everything I need to put the wires together correctly. I do seem to have a draw of power coming from somewhere. I have yet to investigate but I'll have to address it soon. I'm hoping to have it put together enough to take it for a spin around the block this weekend. I also need to get the damn thing out of 4WD. It got stuck when I installed the shift linkage and I can't seem to get the bugger out. I figure I'll try driving it around and giving it a tug then. (the 4WD lever that is)

I'm not sure. I just hooked the one wire that ShawnW labeled as Tachometer up.

So I have located the black wire coming out of the EJ's ECU labeled tachometer on the wiring diagram and connected it to the solid yellow wire that came off of my EA's coil and my tachometer still doesn't work. Is there something else I need to hook up or what am I doing wrong? thanks, earl

So is it necessary for me to try and rig up my pitch stopper in my EA81 hatch after I'm finished with my EJ22 swap. What will happen if I don't? If I do need it then can I get some advice on how to rig it up? thanks, earl

ya, thanks. I just got around to painting the door jams the other day. Oh, and getting it running.

damn you glory hog...

IT'S RUNNING, IT'S RUNNING, IT'S RUNNING!!!!!!!!:banana::banana: It only took about 2 years. A very big thanks to Matt (aka mellow65) for helping me with the F-ing wiring. now the clean up begins.

I hooked up my wiring harness today that I got from ShawnW and it didn't work. (not saying that he did anything wrong, but I'm a little slow when it comes to wiring). I wasn't even able to get power going to the relays. I took a few photos of the wires I wasn't sure about. Any insight would be great. There were two wires marked for battery power, one marked for ground and one marked ignition power. Does that sound right? I just thought there should be more power and ground wires.

I'll get under my car and try to figure out where I want the thing and come up with some kind of drawing that I can scan in and email to you.

I wish I could buy something like that. (interested in making some money?)
