Turbone

Got any pics?

The biggest issue is with the 92 to early 95 trans. Rarely are the originals still in the car. If they are, its been rebuilt. The rear wheel bearings wear out after 100k. Other than that its a well built car. The engine is pretty bullit proof. I've owned 3 SVX.

I dont think the guy at the shop knows anything about old school turbo'd Subaru's.

With the CVT you wont need a D/R trans.

Theres a tag on the back plate. Should be a 3.70.

Welcome to the USMB Colonel. If you want a pristine Loyale, look on the West Coast.

I put early Legacy seats in my 86 Brat, no pics of it. Put 90's Mitsubishi Eclipse seats in my 85 Brat. I had XT6 seats in my RX, but they were to stiff, so I found another pair of Mitsu Eclipse seats.

It all centers on where you have the end of cable bracket. To have it work correctly it needs to be mounted on the back of the intake manifold. Mine is mounted to where the EGR used to be and works fine.

If you want a shop to do it, go to Pacific Import Auto in Spanaway. They only work on Subaru's and are very knowledgeable with the old gen stuff. http://www.yelp.com/biz/steves-pacific-import-auto-tacoma

If they salt the roads during winter in your area, dont drive it.

The first thing you want to check is the timing belt, make sure if its broke or not. Removal of the covers will tell you if it is. If the belt is broken you might as well yank the engine because its going to need a lot of work. A snapped t-belt at 75mph is going to do some internal damage for sure.

A good 6spd trans will cost between $3k-$4k, depending on mileage.

In the 6yrs since this thread was started, many people have done the swap. And what are impress seats?

I built my "perfect" Subaru

It moves around the PNW every year. It could be in Oregon or Washington next year. Wont know until around April/May(or later).

Hopefully it wont shear off when you try and break a head bolt lose :-p

Finally got the trans in my SVX, its only taken 2yrs Now to install the timing belt kit and waterpump and drop the engine in.

Huh, been so long forgot all about it. I probably forgot 10min after posting saying I would

How about starting one in a Toyota forum?

Yes

You can read about my EJ22T swap. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=110912

I would rather stuff a SB V8 in it than a SVX 3.3 The weight savings wont be that much and you'll get more HP. I've pulled a EG33 and its a beast. Having problems finding pics of Lumpcams project, but he swapped a V6 into a unHatched. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?p=146137#post146137

Not on my RX, but you can try it

You need to use a breaker bar and pipe on the crank bolt. Rest it against the drivers side fender and bump the starter, with the coil wire disconnected of course.

Did you go to their website and look? And over here on the west side theres plenty of old Subaru's to bash up. But I dont plan on racing in a event where it costs more than the car
