Hello all just taken my EA81 out of the brumby for new cyl head gaskets, as there was a slight leak starting on no3 all came apart ok, but one of the 160mm+10mm bolts that hold on the rocker assembly on to the head, and act as Cyl Head bolts, is bent a few degrees at the start of the thread - this ...

I use Penrite blue oem coolant concentrate diluted to the directions.

not had a problem with it

I have found the red coolant to do nothing but make crystals in the cooling system and destroy the radiator and heater in my forester

Before you left on your journey did you do an oil change? If not the engine oil could have had fuel in it due to “crankcase dilution” https://www.azom.com/article.aspx?ArticleID=16891 on a long journey the fuel will evaporate reducing the amount of oil in the engine. if not found the engine can suff...

well it sure won't be anyone from Western Australia

there are not a great deal of differences that I have found but they are enough for the engines not to be a straight swap. euro5 to euro6 differences alternator belt tensioner is different Glow plugs on the euro6 are 7 volt euro4 ad euro5 are 12 volt euro5 has a semi closed deck E6 has an open deck ...

9 months later and I'm still compiling info on this subject.

eventually I will have a list of differences between the Euro6 engine and the Euro5 engine. It isn't a big list but there are a few differences

nicely done I have seen way worse interiors on the old wagon, in cars that were still on the road 30 years ago

Good luck with the build

I wish I had not sold my sports wagon but at least I know that the owner isn't going to part it out.

Giving this a bump as the legitimate sign ups are getting harder to spot

I would like to know the difference between the Single EGR engine 2008 to 2012 and the twin EGR engine 2013 to 2019.

There are plenty of Twin EGR engines available but I keep getting told you can't put one in a 2010 TD forester.

Hi, I am a new member and this is my first post. I currently have a 2011 WRX Gearbox (5sp Manual), Flywheel, Clutch and Rear Diff with only 2000km on all components. I inherited this drivetrain for free, and this is the reason behind wanting to utilise it. Can someone help me identify the transmiss...

He actually sees the board as an active historic archive. I still refer people from facebook and other care sites, to the posts here that have work...

nicely done Sam

this is a very helpful video of the process that I'm told Sam memorized

Sam is the tail shaft a single piece or dual piece tail shaft?

It could be a tail shaft vibration either way.

As for the gearbox I saw the video on facebook but had no idea of what was wrong.

I'm thought the syncro has gone on 3rd but Subarino thinks it is linkages

you probably won't find a second hand one or would be really lucky to.

This company makes new ones but they are not cheap.

Liking the conversion, would that work on EA81 dizzy ?

You would have to find a distributor with the same internal size mounting plate, the fiori plate is bigger..

It would probably be easier to modify an L series distributor and use that.
