Recently bought myself a project. A 78' Subaru Brat. I bought it for a very decent price for what I got. It needs a lot of work on the body, but it runs very well.

The progress is going well and I plan on running it stock until I get the money to put parts into it.

 

Future plan (after stock); an engine swap to an EE20 (boxer diesel) and air bag suspension so that I can bring it back up to stock height from a lowered stance (not tucked or cambered)

 

I'm stuck on what color and after market rims to go with. I would stick with the stock rims but it's hard to find tires for 13' rims. Any suggestions?

Love your EE20 idea! Have you seen boxeer.com?

 

An EE20 is also 40mm shorter than an EJ I believe so should fit nicely.

 

I'd love an EE20 swapped 6-speed third gen touring wagon as a daily driver, would cost so little to run!

I know all about that rust life with these old Subaru s Good luck and sweet plan.
