Featured Replies

I have two ? S and can't seem to find the answer.. I have 1995 auto trans w awd from a impreza that had a 2.2.. Sedan but no longer have the car.. Have had alot peeps wanting to know if it ll fit legacys that came w a 2.2 sedan or wagon? The second ? Is an 03 legacy obw w a 2.5 needs engine what years cross over along w 2.2 swap.. Found one from 99 impreza 2.2 will it work

the 95 impreza auto trans has a 4.11 final drive ratio it will fit in 95 - 98 legacys that have a 2.2L engine. it will not fit in any 2.5L car.

 

on the 03, the 00 - 04 2.5L engines should work, as well as the 99-00 2.2L engines. but some whaer in there they changed the cam sprockets, so at the least, compare the ''new'' engine cam sprocket to the ''old'' engine cam sprocket, and if there is a difference, use the ''old'' cam sprocket on the new engine.

Sweet.. With all the knowledge on here there isn't a project on Subaru I won't try... May I ask y u have to change cam sprokets?

there are two "style" cam sprockets that have different trigger marks on the back of them for the cam sensors to work off of. if you install an engine with different "trigger marks" so to speak, then the ECU isn't correctly interpretting the results. swapping cams from the original engine onto the new engine will give the ECU the correct signal.

 

 

your location says "northern cambria"...not sure what that means but if it's international then information may vary.
