Subaru swap/build

[joe99rs]

I've been collecting parts since I broke my car and some from before. I'm not going too over the top cause this will be my first one and I want it to be somewhat reliable (oxymoron).

-Thinking about getting a 06 EJ257 short block w/25k miles, broken ringland needs new piston and honing

Parts:

-T3/T04 turbo
-Custom up and down pipe, with EWG setup
-AEM wideband
-Turbo XS manual boost controller
-Vishnu top mount IC
-Greddy BOV
-STi oil pump
-Link G1 ECU
-STi injectors 565ccs
-Walbro 255lph fuel pump
-Exedy 13lb flywheel

Using the I/M, heads, from my old EJ25.
I need a larger exhaust but havn't decided on that yet.
Im sure there is something I forgot. I plan on mating it to the stock 5 speed till it blows up. I've heard they can hold some power but the ratio sucks. I will probably hit third alot more at Auto-x.

I'm sure I forgot something but let me know what you think. If I pick up that motor this will finally get started.

+juan.


do your heads work on the EJ255? do they flow enough for forced induction?

[AWDMadness]

Do you have a black one roaming around cape coral? well before it broke of course....I believe it has alteazzas too?

STi brandon has a STi shortblock and just about an entire ej20 wrx motor and tranny laying around...

+juan. I think him and brandon have talked though.

[Hawk]

ah... i think the wrx motor and tranny would be a great combo in the 2.5RS... i dont know if the rear end gearing would work out right though.... but im sure a wrx rear end is easy to come by.

Not me thats my evil twin (kind of) I do not have alteazzas

I might be interested in his STi shortblock. I called him and his voicemail said he lost his phone. If you can get a hold of him I would like to talk.

Finally figured out this multi-quote deal. Whats up! I'm gonna see if I can "borrow" a friends Hyundai for the next auto-x

+juan.

Whats up!
Yes, as long as I don't get too crazy.

I really don't want to give up any low end. I know its only .5 liter. As far as the tranny goes, I will probably regret not going all out but maybe I'll have cash for that before the motor goes in.

[joe99rs]

I just searched for STi brandon. I guess he's not a member here? or did I miss him?

[STiDriven]

He's never on here.

[Anthony]

his names spinn all 4 or some shit.he only comes on like once every month

[Hawk]

ya, hes got 2 jobs, school and a girlfriend. i cant ever get ahold of the man.
