    All you need for an Ej alternator to work is a wire from acc on the ignition to the alternator. if you don't do this the alternator won't charge.

     

    At first I just connected the wire directly to the battery. But when then engine is not running it will draw some current from the battery this way.

  2. Bram on subaruxt.com did this on his ej20g build.. basicly they are the same. The only thing is that the atf lines on the ej rack outputs on the other side.. He cut a hole in the crossmember and strengthened it. Anyway here is a pic of it

  3. As I remember there should be a wire comming from the alternator that needs switched 12v for the alternator to alternate :)

    Sorry Don't remember the colour could be black or yellow or something :confused:

    If not connected to a switched 12v source but directly to the battery you can hear a low noice from the alternator.

  4. I have an subaru xt turbo with an forester turbo transmission and an ej20g legacy engine.

     

    Lately I've had problems with my clutch. This clutch is an cheep kit type rated for 300hp I bought out of e-bay:

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/F1-RACING-STAGE-3-CLUTCH-SUBARU-IMPREZA-FORESTER-EJ25_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33730QQihZ005QQitemZ150208322475QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW

    When letting out the clutch it is far to brutal.

    It was nice and smooth when I first installed it.

    What could cause this?

     

    The clutch is a push type cable opperated one and I have to say that it does take some abuse from my suped up ej20g. :dead:

    Is there an difference in the clutch itself if it's push/pull type?

    I don't get this.. What kind of clutch should I look for??

     

     

    Thanks

  6. Sorry I just had to comment about the first video.

     

    I belive than when using one winch in the rear and one in the front as he is using I could have done than with a subaru as well.

     

    But yeah you are right sammy kick subaru. Infact it's a sammy that have the worlds offroad altitude record. :rolleyes:

  7. Well, I've owned two of them, and I'm no hairdresser. And Jared drives one right now as a daily driver. I thought Jared was a Soldier in the Marine Corps, but I guess he's a hairdresser now.

     

    edit* I checked your "photos" tab, and nothing. Can't really say you have anything to show as for your off roading expertise or knowledge. Search around a bit, you'll see the two of us have wheeled quite a few Soobs in quite a few places. My sig at another forum is: "I've off roaded more Soobs than anyone." And I have.

     

     

    You're not making friends here pal.

     

     

    I'm sorry for having offended you.

     

    But I guess You've taken this too personaly. I just said what I think about subaru's offroad. You are probably right about that I don't have that much experience with offroading at all.

     

    And about the hairdresser's car.. I was trying to make a joke. (The hair dresser statement is actualy a quote from wheeler dealers on Discovery channel) I was asking for a reaction and I did get it :P After all I have stated that I love subaru's on and off road. (this is a subaru forum isn't it?)

     

     

    Btw. I'm not much of a video/picture guy but you can watch a few videos on youtube taken with my cellphone :P (search for subybrat) Also my post count is only in the 50's So I'm realy not that active on this forum. Anyway I'll leave this post alone.

     

    Thanks
