Featured Replies

Car-97 Imp Briton 1.8 Stock

Engine 94 Leg n/a 2.2

Tranny-Stock Briton 5sp

Exhaust-Borla 17183 Dual port headers, header back from 99 LGT

 

I need to know what Clutch/Flywheel, plugs and o2 sensors i want to use, stock 1.8 or 2.2's to match the engine or 2.5's to match the exhaust. they all seem to be differnt part no.:confused:

 

This is hopefully the final part(s) needed for the swap. I have everthing in hand except the headers, which hopefully will be coming monday, and the plugs/o2's/Clutch/Flywheel.

 

Thanks

Pete

2.2 flywheel and clutch or better, 1.8 will work but is lighter duty.

 

plugs for the 2.2.

 

O2 for the 1.8 as it will match the plug. And you will only need one I believe.

 

I did this swap with my kids '93 L and he loves it. A little less mpg's but the increae in power is worth it he says.

Ok thats what i figured for the plugs/o2 but can i use a 2.5 clutch flywheel? or even one off a WRX? What are the differences in them, do they all mount the same? any inexpensive reccomendations for the combo?

I think you'll need a clutch that is not hydraulic. Does your car have a clutch cable or slave cylinder? If there is a cable you will need to use a 1990-94 Legacy clutch kit. If it has a slave cylinder you can use any Impreza WRX STi clutch for it. Your current clutch type will be the determining factor.

currently i have a cable clutch, im pretty sure. Its a brighton and i can't find any slave sylender, but i also can't find any cable adjuster...:confused:

OK, then it's a clutch kit for a Legacy, 1990-94.

ok i have a clutch kit coming but what flywheel? is the 94-95 2.2 different from the 96+ 2.2, i can find the latter but not the 94. im at a sticking point. which tranny/flywheel did you use in your swap?
