EJ BRAT roll call and comments

[s'ko]

Well I have logged about 1000 miles on my EJ18 BRAT.

 

I have the stock EA81 clutch and PP and it's holding fine.

 

I am running 205-55-16 impreza sized tires w/the EA81 4spd D/R.

 

The only major issue I had was the pathetic EA81 tranny mounts started ripping from EJ. I have new ones fabbed up and so far so good.

 

Driving around in Low range fwd is great. I would highly recommend the seperating the dual range selector if you are running it w/a lift.

 

I have yet to encounter issues due to lack of a surge tank.

 

One thing that I have not ironed out is the temp gauge wires. I took a the temp gauge wire from the ECU and spliced it to my gauge. Now I am getting a irregular idle. Any one know where there is another temp gauge sensor on the EJs.
