Kurzer Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 So I've got my little 88 Justy 2WD and I'm very new to Subaru... I notice you guys mention engine codes, what is the engine code for the 88 2WD? Is it different from the 88 4x4? If so, I'll need that too. I was lucky enough to run into a guy that has an 88 4x4 in near mint condition, he doesn't want it anymore and I'm picking it up for $300. I will be giving it my engine and various front end bits to make it complete. Is there anything I'll need to know before hand when I do the engine swap? I'm doing it this way because it seems easier than swapping the 4WD into my car. I'll be looking for engines or engine swap ideas for my current Justy, as I'm going to sell it as soon as the 4WD runs. What type of basic swap (if any) is out there for the 88 body style Justi? Turbo: I've looked around the forums and found some helpfull images of turbo Justy's. They all seem to have one thing mine doesn't. What type of carb will I need to buy to make a turbo 4WD a reality? and is anyone running intercoolers? because I've only seen one so far running a newer style IC under the bonnet, connected to a newer style hood scoop. TIA for any and all help on this! I'll be starting the work about mid August. Cheers! Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim http://subarujusty.proboards20.com/index.cgi?board=ecvt join that board there is a lot of info there. there is a way to pull codes off a justy, but i dont rember how off hand. The carb is worth a small fortune, so i would keep that. nipper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
