If i drill the Ea81 flywheel out so it is the same size as the EA82 it will mount up fine.. but will it work well or cause problems down the line?

has any one done this and with what result.

thanks bryce

ps. will this work with an EA82 5sp d/r tranny

Only some of the EA82 D/R clutch disc's will fit the EA81 pressure plate. If you find one that does then the EA81 flywheel/pressure plate will work no problem. I can't for the life of me figure out why you would want to do such a thing though. Seems totally silly.

LACK OF FUNDS and i have an ea81 flywheel so yeah

Go get a used EA82 flywheel from the junk yard. Typically about $10 - $15. $35 to have it resurfaced if it needs it. Cheaper than new anyway.

 

Using an EA81 setup in an EA82 like that is just asking for trouble later. The EA81 pressure plate doesn't match up to the EA82 release bearing, and very few EA82 disc's will fit inside the EA81 pressure plate. Only the one's with small, round shaped spring dampeners will fit and those aren't that common in my experience.

where are there subaru graveyards cause this side of the river i cant find a yard with any subarus....

Go to the Portland yards. You are close enough and there's no sales tax here. Any of the LKQ self-service yards will have dozens of EA82's.
