February 2, 200917 yr did the ej18 go interferrence in '97 like the ej22? the EJ18 wasn't made after 95 AFAIK
February 2, 200917 yr Author i guess this could be a jdm engine, but i was just wondering./ pretty good price for 62k miles. http://allentown.craigslist.org/pts/1017163103.html
February 2, 200917 yr No - EJ18's are not interference.EJ18's were available after 95 . What years were they available? I thought they stopped after 95
February 2, 200917 yr i guess this could be a jdm engine, but i was just wondering./ pretty good price for 62k miles. http://allentown.craigslist.org/pts/1017163103.html probably just misquoting the year. probably a 96. that is a good deal.
February 3, 200917 yr Author probably just misquoting the year. probably a 96. that is a good deal. gary, what year, car, trans, final drive, tires did you put your ej18 in?? i think you referred to it as gutless, does it serve as an around town car? thanks john
February 3, 200917 yr gary, what year, car, trans, final drive, tires did you put your ej18 in?? i think you referred to it as gutless, does it serve as an around town car? thanks john I have a EJ18 in a BRAT w/the EA81 4 speed dual range tranny, 3.9 final drive on 225-60-16s, that about an 1 1/2 inches over stock for the impreza tire size or 6.5% off. It gets about 26 MPG and it's pretty petty. Granted the BRAT is light, but I have no problems scooting around even with engines and other stuff loaded in the back. BW
February 3, 200917 yr gary, what year, car, trans, final drive, tires did you put your ej18 in?? i think you referred to it as gutless, does it serve as an around town car? i haven't looked into it any more yet. 1996 Legacy LSi with an EJ18 - FWD auto trans and 15" tires. I drive around town and take highway trips with the car. It drives okay, but seems like it should be a bit better. Right now it's only annoying starting out from a stop. It's really sloooow getting up and going. If I floor it, it just slowly goes from a stop. Once it's going it's fine. Have the EGR code and the AT light flashes, presumably because I swapped AWD to FWD. i swapped the TCU but i think the wiring pin still indicates that it's an AWD.

February 22, 200917 yr the EJ18 wasn't made after 95 AFAIK What years were they available? I thought they stopped after 95 That is Just in the USA Market... here are Still Available the EJ15, EJ16 and EJ18 in the imprezas... This is a Poor Quality Picture, taken with my CellPhone, but you can see the 1.6 in the Back of this new impreza: (and a Nice Legacy Behind) For Example, here a 2000 year impreza with EJ15: http://www.todoautos.com.pe/f49/subaru-impresa-ej15-51409.html and a EJ16 Legacy: http://www.todoautos.com.pe/f49/vendo-subaru-legacy-1600cc-50358.html Edited February 22, 200917 yr by Loyale 2.7 Turbo Center image ;)
