want to find ~ early legacy 2.2 Closed deck....

[722ish]

i want to find a used/new? i dont know if anyone knows where i can find these suckers... i figure buy a stroker kit, like the HKS, JUN, TODA, and put it in the 2.2 closed deck.. i think this should work.. if im wrong, please let me know also...

thanks

are you planning on building a motor mark after buying that aps turbo

[722ish]

not at all ;)
actually, right now, im more planning it all... it is gonna be a while, but i just want to get it all together... im talking months here.

supposedly that turbo "should" flow for the 2.2, but.... it isnt going to take full advantage of the power capability...

eventually, ill buy another turbo... possibly a bigger aps, more than likely the external wastegate turbos...

What years are the 2.2 close decked legacys? I saw 2 legacys in the junk yard when I was walking through.

[blackwagon]

4 legacy motors in the 90s
1 was a legacy wagon
2 were 5 speed
2 were auto
3 had 150ish
1 had 225ish
i'll pull and deliver if you want one...

Hmmm...just out of curiosity, how much for one of the high mileage blocks? :)

Judging by your sig, I need to shop carefully. :lol:

[blackwagon]

I don't know how much the labor is worth yet... this junkyard is the muddy monster... no shade... blocks are at a low low 60 bucks... I'm going there in the next couple days to pull apart a motor in case I ever wanna do anything big with my car. Might as well buy the block while i'm there taking apart the motor. Rather learn what not to break on a motor that isnt mine.

I'm lookin for info on the 90ish trannies, I think I might pick one up to blow it up if theres not that many parts to make it fit.

[722ish]

im not sure yet which ones were the closed deck ej22s... as soon as i find out.. im there, ill let you know!

btw...are you the supposed assclown?

bummer... I'm still pulling the motors :lol: they said I couldn't bring a camera in the yard(after we were already done)... looky what I got. That light is the shit... It flips up and down and theres a button in the car that says passing light. I'm assuming it's used to high beam the hell out of people :lol:

[blackwagon]

I got pics not the light... to broke to buy stuff that I have no need for.

damn, i was going to come ask you about this.... looks like im SOL.... SOB. :(

but arent the STi's semi-closed ;) ?


since it looks like im on the wrong track here, what is going to be the most cost effective motor? the stock open deck with a good bottom end? stroker? what do i do now? :mad: that straight chaps my ass :(

and this (give new meaning to this thing will make you fly)
http://www.sdsefi.com/air17.html

none of the ones in the junkyard were turbo I believe... I guess i'll just take the motor out of one for fun and leave it in the trunk or somthing... I guess i'll start hunting for my own "bullet proof" "aircraft material" ej22 turbo motor... (deal went sour with a trade from cali for my car)

http://www.legacycentral.org/articles/turbomag/intro.htm

the more I read the more I want the swap... I'll have a block by new years... this thing is awsome...:lol:

whoa i thought all subarus were 4wd... rwd legacys... rwd wagon :) wonder if the legacy casing will fit my gears/ motor... the internet is my freind...

[722ish]

you are a great help... you know what, for all that, ill buy you a beer. well, if youre 21 ;)

if you come across one of these motors, tell me how much you find it for, i really need to find this shit :D

thanks for bein bored!
