njdrsubaru Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 where could i find a chart for early to late 90's, i need to know ratios of trans and rear diff.... thanks Neo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnceggleston Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 95 - 99 2.2 manl = 3.9 2.2 4eat = 4.11 2.5 manl = 4.11 2.5 4eat = 4.44 the early 90s had no apparent pattern. i think 94 was the same as 95 but not sure. turbos were likley different than others of the same year and trans????

njdrsubaru Posted January 27, 2009 Author Share Posted January 27, 2009 Another quick question... Are the gear ratios the same for the Imp ATs up to 00 also?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnceggleston Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 (edited) Another quick question... Are the gear ratios the same for the Imp ATs up to 00 also?? logic says they would be or at least a very close variation. the most i can figure out is that subaru makes 3 ring gears, 37, 39 & 40 teeth and 2 pinion gears, 9 & 10 teeth. (plus the odd ball 11 tooth pinion for the svx). these gears allow for the gear ratios we are most familiar, 3.7, 3.9, 4.11, 4.44, but there are other possible ratios. so my guess is imprezas use some combination of these existing gears. you can do some research at http://opposedforces.com/parts/ and find the actual part numbers for the gears in the diff in question and compare them to another. but, i may be wrong, so do your homework.

njdrsubaru Posted January 27, 2009 Author Share Posted January 27, 2009 cant seem to find info on the imprezas 4eat gear ratio now i just need to know if it is a 4.11 or what grrrrr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bratman18 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 cant seem to find info on the imprezas 4eat gear ratio now i just need to know if it is a 4.11 or what grrrrr My 97 impreza L with 4 spd auto was 4.111, does that help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njdrsubaru Posted January 27, 2009 Author Share Posted January 27, 2009 ok thats a start.. now how about 2 yrs ahead? i am looking specifically for a 99 impreza thats the tranny i am going with for my lego Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bratman18 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 ok thats a start.. now how about 2 yrs ahead? i am looking specifically for a 99 impreza thats the tranny i am going with for my lego I'm not sure. But I know that when I had a question about this one time, I called the dealer and they were able to look it up for me. So maybe you could try that? I mean I would think it would be the same, but of course I don't know for sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnceggleston Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 i look at the rear diffs listed in the opposed forces parts lookup website and the diff ratios appear to be same as the legacy for the late 90s. 2.2L man - 3.9 2.2L 4eat - 4.11 2.5L man - 4.11 2.5L 4eat - 4.44 1.8L was the same as 2.2L, and pre 95 was not necessarily the same post 95. but again, i just looked this up and i may be wrong, or the web site may be wrong.

johnceggleston Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 (edited) ok thats a start.. now how about 2 yrs ahead? i am looking specifically for a 99 impreza thats the tranny i am going with for my lego you need to check more than just the dif ratio, the 99 legacy trans changed in the early part of that manufacture year. in 99 they went to a trans with a TZ1A2ZJEBA (outback) part number rather than the 98 version TZ102Z2DBA (outback), the TZ1A2Z... is a phase 2 trans. this change in the legacy trans included a wiring change. you need to find out which trans the 99 used and which trans your other car used. impreza may have changed a year earlier or later (earlier i think?). using the "new" phase 2 trans will require a lot of wire splicing and figuring out. what year are you putting the trans in? does the 99 have a spin on trans filter? compare the wiring connectors to make sure they match.

johnceggleston Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 the impreza 97 2.2L AWD a/t, was a 'new' phase 2 trans. this means a 99 would be also. what is the year and model of the car you are putting the trans in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njdrsubaru Posted January 27, 2009 Author Share Posted January 27, 2009 95 lego Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnceggleston Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 95 legacy uses a TZ102ZAAAA. you can use any legacy 2.2L trans from 95 - 98 as long as it starts with TZ102ZA... impreza part numbers for the same time frame are similar but some check is in order. but you can probably use a 95 - 96 (maybe 97?) impreza 2.2L trans as long as the trans part number starts with TZ102ZA...., but this crossover is unusual and it's going to take some research to be sure it will work. there is a chance you can use an impreza as early a 93, but 95 is usually a break point so i would stick with 95 - 96/97 as long as the trans part number starts off with TZ102ZA.....

johnceggleston Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 you can also probably use a 96 - 98 outback, LSi, or GT trans if you get the matching rear diff. these trans have the 4.44 gear ratio. i say probably, because i don't know if the 95 TCU will work well with the 96 - 98 TZ102Z2.... trans. if possible, stick with a 2.2L trans.

njdrsubaru Posted January 27, 2009 Author Share Posted January 27, 2009 this trans form the impreza is from a 2.2 i am just waiting for the guy to call back with a trans number Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njdrsubaru Posted January 27, 2009 Author Share Posted January 27, 2009 no good :-\:-\:-\ the new trans number is TZ1A2ZAEAA-WX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnceggleston Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 (edited) have you looked here? www.car-part.com you'll have to search for legacy, 95, 96, 97, 98 etc., as listed above, but you'll have lots to choose from. sort your search by 'distance'. a 450$ trans in town costs the same as a 300$ trans you have to ship for 150$. these guys list one for 175$, Alliance Auto Parts USA-NY(Woodside) Request_Quote 1-800-323-4500 Edited January 27, 2009 by johnceggleston Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnceggleston Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 by the way, that was a 96 legacy 2.2L A/T. if the jy hears you ask for a 95 they will not quote a 96, their interchange software thinks they are different. do your research on line and then call the jy and ask for the year trans you have seen they have.

If all he needs is a matching rear diff, that's awesome! That just means lower gears for off road!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njdrsubaru Posted January 28, 2009 Author Share Posted January 28, 2009 (edited) hmmm here is the correct number.. my typo... sorry TZ102ZABAA its a 4.11 right? Edited January 28, 2009 by njdrsubaru Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
