It's got 3 yellow plugs if that helps.

Wondering if anyone has a wiring diagram for a 1995 Subaru Legacy 2.2 (NZ-new)? My flatmate has purchased it to re-power his new jetboat with (is running a carbed EJ18 at the moment and it's a little gutless). The aim is to switch to an MPFI EJ22. Both motors are phase 1 SOHC EJ motors so is bolt-in...

Love this wagon! Good to see it's still around.

'Custom' could simply mean matching splines and slipping different CVs onto a shaft used on another vehicle. CV's drive shafts and diffs seem to be very standardised. For example, the R180 long nose diff is used in allot of old Nissans. So are R160s. People swap subie ones into Datsuns all the time...

Pedders do pre assembled strut spring kits for the rear of SG Foresters, or you can get the same thing off rockauto.com.
Other option is getting non sls struts and something like King springs, and assembling that but the pre assembled struts are easier to fit.

The EE20 has some 350 Nm of torque at 1800-2400rpm, whereas the EZ30D has only 289 Nm at 400rpm. So that's a LOT more torque than anyone has probably ever put through a D/R before and at lower RPMs too. It would be interesting to see how it held up. Some early diesel Outbacks here in NZ did use the ...

I'd recommend against towing it with your MY... I've towed a KP Starlet rally car on a single-axle unbraked trailer behind a 2008 2.0 Impreza and that was not fun. The car + trailer would have been pushing a ton, at least, and it had no power at all up hills, and braking was bad enough. This in a ca...

Nah the reason for the panadols is that over 20 is usually enough to make your liver die - it's a pretty nasty death that takes several days.
People don't actually abuse Panadol I don't think...

I was under the impression that only the 1997 SF had the 4-bolt and the EJ20J. The 1998 SF had the 8-bolt with the EJ202?

Nachaluva will know

idk if Kiwisoob is still online, but I'll give you a rundown of the southern NZ perspective! MYs have essentially vanished. Last I saw on the road was a Brumby and even they're quite rare, and looking rough/rusty. Last sedan I saw was last year, wagon even longer and it was munted. L series, very ra...

It would be a twin carb on a standard intake manifold wouldn't it? The 'safari' engines were just a factory mod for the rally teams weren't they? The two RXs in the wrecker's yard both have the 'standard' EA81S, twin carb with reversed valves etc. The one in the link (for sale on TradeMe for $20,00...

Will do Cliff, all of the info will go in my resto interior thread when I get around to it. Bennie, that's good to know thanks. If it is a genuine RX coupe though it will have the 6 gauge that I'm after, and it has the same dash I have as I can see through the windscreen in the few pics on that lis...

If you're really desperate, there are two JDM MY RX coupes and a JDM MY touring wagon sitting in a wrecker's yard in Crowmwell. Take a look on trademe, search for subaru leone and it's the auction for 'subaru 80 to 85 parts'. Transtasman shipping could be a killer though, depending on whether he's w...

The double din unit is factory JDM. They're really common.

I've seen that cream interior in the flesh and it's just as yellow as it looks in the photos. I'm not a fan. I reckon the NZDM interior is much better.

As it's a Jap import, it'll have an EJ20 with a 4EAT, so it'll be gutless as.

Where's the rest of the article on the rally version!:)

Look forward to hearing more steptoe! Wow look at the price of that RX!!!!!! You need to put your collection up on the web somewhere KiwiL!! :) Could take some time, I have over 4000 photos... Not all off TradeMe, they're from all over including a lot from this site. Here's one of the quad-carb eng...

Found these guys from Czechoslovakia who have built an incredible L-series Touring Wagon and raced it successfully in multiple intercontinental rallies. I think we'd all love to do something like this. Looks like they're running a 2" lift kit, rally tyres on 15" Peugeot rims, WRX or STi engine with ...

Here's one of Possum's old RX: http://i61.tinypic.com/2ds4har.jpg I had a colour photo one I scanned out of his autobiography but it was on my old laptop, which recently died. Here's my favourite Possum pic: http://i59.tinypic.com/nfrzgy.jpg And one of the bone-stock RX I saw on Trademe a couple yea...

That link on usmb was one of the ones I've seen. There's a couple in a wreckers yard in Central Otago, and one in the North Island that has a factory rally engine fitted, with quad carbs! Possum used to race an rx with that same engine, it was in his biography.
Cheers.

It's a JDM RX. Someone's removed the factory decals from the sides though, or else it's been repainted. One of these came up for sale in NZ recently too. It's got the same gearbox as a Brumby basically. 4-speed, FWD, 4WDhi, 4WDlo. I believe these had an LSD rear diff though. The EA81T was sold concu...
