Thats cool...now all you need to do is build a big enough spud gun to get your tow rope back across the lake:)

I can see someone else uses a dremel style rotary tool to clean their gearbox :) Notice also the cat converter halfway down the car. My 85 has it directly off the turbo in the dump pipe. Looks like the rearest gearbox mount bolts can be used for EJ box as a brace across the mount holes and that bra...

That little thin mount at the very rear which doesn't actually support anything is just a safety device. If the tailshaft drops off for some reason, that will catch it and prevent it sticking into the ground and possibly flipping the car. At least that's what someone told me once and I guess it mak...

A picture tells a thousand words, but what is the mount in the 89 RX supporting?

Not a thing, its flat across top and doesnt have any hole prep for mounts at all, directly above it the shifter linkage attaches to the trans.

This got me curious so.... This shot is the mounts on a '87 RX front mount 524 mm's center to center rear mount 279 mm's " " http://i810.photobucket.com/albums/zz24/tsunamaru/100_0636-1.jpg This is an '89 RX using a rear mount my fsm doesnt show being used. rear mount 346 mm's center to center http:...

I did pick up one we received, but not as nice as this one is.

I NEED that wagons spoiler:)

I was thinking that as Mark has a few years on me, my advice may be headed, or at least considered. Think we are both hoons at heart :-P . Mark, I withdraw my advice as you are not dealing with the rudimentary, agricultural NVH of an MY/Brumby/BRAT/MV1800 My induction roar is all I want anyone to h...

Yeah but this is because you're "coming of age" Jonno! Mark, I didn't know about the XT6 crossmember. I only find this interesting as I have no plans of dropping an EJ gearbox into my L ;) And the top of those door cards - have they been replaced? I should post a pic of mine as the rears are crazed...

Really? the resonator will have to go:twisted:

Im excited with this find. About 6 hours, over 480 km's and 30 bucks gas invested.

Is this true Mark? I use the 2 front sections of the Liberty/Legacy crossmember when I do an EJ D/R into an L. I find that the front holes line up perfectly but looking at the XT6 front piece looks like they are different. It makes more sense to use the XT6 as they should be idendical to the L. Yes...

Now that is a sweet find Mark ! :D Look forward to seeing pic's of the day's efforts ! Thanks Giles, I didnt get as far as I would have liked today. A four hour drive around with the little lady today, but I did finish the mounts, fabbed a couple 4" blocks for the rear mount and hunted everywhere f...

Today is drivetrain install and I hope to have the wrx 5 speed, rear diff and such installed clean up time allowing. Installing the ej transmission is plug and play using the ej center section along with the xt6 front and rear cross members. http://i810.photobucket.com/albums/zz24/tsunamaru/100_0624...

Comes to mind Ive never posted this up, but a pretty cool guy hooked me up with this set up. I think the donor was a crashed car as the waic radiator was grinning at me when I opened it up. So I sent it to a shop to be straightened out and recored. Turns out they straightened it out and pressure tes...
