99lego Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 Hello all. I am new here and had a question about the 99 lego that I am going to be purchasing on Monday morning. 99 was the year that the SOHC was introduced to replace the DOHC on the 2.5 litre engines. Was this only for Impreza? Did any of the 99 2.5 litre engines have SOHC? And was the SOHC available in the Legos in 99? Thanks!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

99lego Posted October 1, 2006 Author Share Posted October 1, 2006 hmmmmmmm so 99 was the first year for phase II 2.2 litre motors and it appears that the 30th edition legacy l wagons came with the 2.2 and not the 2.5. Any 2.5 litre 99 legacy l wagons on the road? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brus brother Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 It would seem that the 2.2 was preferable over the 2.5 self-destruct headgasketed engine??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
99lego Posted October 1, 2006 Author Share Posted October 1, 2006 It would seem that the 2.2 was preferable over the 2.5 self-destruct headgasketed engine??? yes the ej22 is preferred over the ej25. what is the deal with the engine sequencing? in '98 it was dohc ej25 in all OB but still ej22 in legos. in '99 the GT had the dohc ej25 in the legos right? so did the L model 30th anniversary get the newer version of the ej22 or did it get the dohc ej25? Come on people I know a ton of you must own a 99 lego L 30th anniversary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

99lego Posted October 1, 2006 Author Share Posted October 1, 2006 2.2!!! yay!!! were rolling 2.2 rules!!! Vrmm!!!! It looks as though im going to leave this one mostly stock as far as engine/exhaust is concerned. but the suspension will not be spared...scouring local yards for OB susp parts or maybe i should go the other way and have a more sport tuned set up. either way its only going up or no where at all. definately going to invest into a halfway decent system though..something with an ipod jack right there on the face and new speakers. gotta tint it first though...it looks UGLY with clear windows on white. AZ laws gonna let me go 10% on everything except the windshield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xrturbo Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 in the 95-99 body style legs the 2.5 dohc motor ran right to 99. the 2.2 switched for 1 year in legs in 99 when it became the phase 2 design (there aren't a whole lot of them out there) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

99lego Posted October 5, 2006 Author Share Posted October 5, 2006 clean throttle body?? CEL came on this afternoon. I've put less than 100 miles on the car since it left the dealership yesterday. Gonna take her in to the bastards and make them fix it. I took my parts guy off notice...he figured out the recall and got the part (it obviously affects my lego). Ill be sure to post what exactly is going on with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
