Hey there!

I'm bored so I decided to make a thread about my Subaru GL coupe that I builded as a rallycross car last summar, with a lot of help from my best friends. Last season I drove with the original EA82 engine and results from the summer are 3rd place in the Cup competition but 4th in the Championship. I've got some pics from the building of the cage and some other things. The plan for the 2010 rallycross season is to put an EJ20 in it and hopefully do some better progress. Btw can someone tell me one thing that I'm not sure about.. does the EJ20 fit on my motor subframe(english not so good) without any changes?

Here are some pictures of the car just when I bought it.

And so the building....


Changeing the clutch

And then the car was painted green.. not my idea btw













Hope you enjoy these pictures. Maybe I'll keep you updated when the EJ20 will be sitting there

ps. Sorry about my bad english

Looks great Gudni.. looks like you had a lot of fun. And we can understand your English just fine

Awesome pics Gudni ..... and yep great english too , good luck with the engine swop

Your english is just as good - no problems...
There has been a few threads about EJ conversions in L series (you can even fit EJ25 & EG27 in it)... It will fit...
Cheers

Excellent job there boys. Looks like you're having fun and that's the name of the game.

whi is it that Icelandics know how to enjoy cheap motorsport better than anyone else in the world??

Thanks for the comments.

Here's a video from the highlights of the 2009 rallycross season. Hope you can all see it, it's a link from Facebook.

My coupe has now got an EJ20 engine

Did the swap on 2-3 days but there are little things to do yet, make the wipers work and the brake lights. But that shouldn't be a problem.

Some pics of the swap....

Great job! Rare to see a two door liftback l series?!?
