Rally Pat Posted April 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2011 This video is of a GF Wagon with an EG33 in it at the Rallycross National Challenge at National Trail. Looks pretty fast, and its a heavier body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rally Pat Posted April 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 Okay, so over the weekend, we got the Legacy finished. Did headgaskets, timing belt, water pump, intake manifold gaskets, and exhaust. The timing was off 3 or 4 teeth on one head, so no wonder it ran like shit, in addition to the blown headgaskets. Thats done now, and all it needs is to get legal so I can drive it. As of today, we are still on for this coming weekend to rip in to the SVX. The harness guy is waiting on me to get that done, and he says that he actually has a harness already ready to go, so it won't take long to get it back. If all goes according to plan (Read: IF), all of the mechanical parts of the swap should be completed weekend after next. I am not going to worry about replacing anything on the engine itself except for the wired in blaster coil. I want to get the car running first. Things are looking good, though. If anyone has any snow tires or rally tires they want to get rid of that fit my Impreza, let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rally Pat Posted April 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 FUUUUUUUUU :fuuuu: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v202/MegamanEXE/ecf26b87.jpg Anyway, I lost my shop space I had reserved today to work on the SVX, so I am going to see what I can accomplish in the driveway. I also have to work on Patrick's RX-7 because we might be autocrossing it tomorrow, so that needs some attention too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rally Pat Posted May 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2011 Made some progress today, took most of the dash apart and was very careful not to hurt the harness in any way. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v202/MegamanEXE/8a2bccad.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v202/MegamanEXE/cb9cee31.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v202/MegamanEXE/87b59840.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v202/MegamanEXE/76ff73fb.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v202/MegamanEXE/f33a13cd.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rally Pat Posted May 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2011 Rain finally cleared up enough for me to make progress. The rest of the harness is out, and most of the engine is disconnected. Hoping to take it out during the rapture. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v202/MegamanEXE/6b2e5284.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v202/MegamanEXE/e136f746.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v202/MegamanEXE/65fa0b81.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rally Pat Posted June 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2011 Harness got shipped out today. The guy its going to already has one ready to go, so the turn around should be pretty quick. Now I need some Group N or stiffer engine mounts. After that, I will have everything I need to put the motor in the car and hook it up. Still have to deal with cooling it, but at the very least it will be startable. Will also probably pick up the OEM gasket kit from Subaru and give all the seals a freshing up before tossing it back in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGGU Posted June 2, 2011 Report Share Posted June 2, 2011 looks like it needs a seal kit good thing you ordered that. That sure is a greasy looking valve cover! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't ordered it YET, but will. I am saving up funding this week to blow money at STPR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
