  • so the brat is up on jack stands yet again   in the process of bracing the rear suspension (sorry no pics yet). and ive got a good set of axles headed my way! also ive started swapping rotors calipers

  • flipping subarus doesn't really work because subaru owners/ the people that would buy a subaru tend to be "frugal" when it comes to money.IE cheapasses

    check it out guys! drilled the rims and mounted them, used an old brake drum as a guide had to mount the ones on the rear inside out to clear everything, so i turned the front ones inside out too jus

ooh okay, yeah that makes sense. how much do you think i would have into the engine before it would be ready to swap in? not looking to sink a ton of money into a super rusty brat

I'm not sure. I don't really keep up with the EJ crowd. I've worked on a couple, but never built one. 

 

I have read a bunch on the swap, though. I suggest you do, too. The wiring is the worst part; especially if it's OBDII. 

 

That being said, it's still not cheap regardless.

That's sweet. Looks like you have some good panels to use for the Brat. Spare everything is always nice.

Also, why does oil come out of the carb on the wagon?

I thought the egr was eliminated with the weber carb? I definitely could be wrong though!

My best bet is the PCV valve.

 

Depending on how the PVC hoses are setup on the Weber,(if, at all) it's most likely PCV related. I wouldn't worry about it till it's on the brat.

 

EGR just regulates exhaust gas to my understanding.

Well im putting the whole engine/transmission into my brat so i just want to know if that engine has issues... PCV.. Where and what is that exactly?

It doesn't have to be. If you want to- you can. People have opinions on whether or not it's beneficial.

 

Its up to you, really.

Also, does it even matter if it sprays oil? It gets in the air filter but does it matter?

What does the pcv valve look like? And where is it?

  • Author

got a set of custom cut floormats for the brat for christmas! :) thanks mom!

The PCV valve is located almost directly behind the carb. Here is a picture of what it looks like (Credit Dinky26)

Its the plastic piece that the cracked hose is on.
