Subaru conversion start

Tell the wife the hoovering needs doing and it still looks dusty... then she’ll f**king start

 

Note to self, ensure temp sender plug is plugged in, even after you know you connected it!!

Makes it start and run crap, and bring on the check engine light.

All sorted now though.

 

Im gonna drag him over to mine when its back from the exhaust fabricators to work his magic on the last few jobs I have to complete.
Should take him an hour or so to sort it - I hope lol

 

Test drive completed, 4 miles is enough isn't it?

Drive to work tomorrow then a thrash down, I mean sedate drive TE.

 

Well done sir....

 

Would you have been on the A46 near saxondale at approx 13:30? Looked like your van and seemed to be shifting ok

Yep, sounds about the right time.

 

So! How does it run?
Going from ej20 phase 1 to ej20 phase 2 made already a big difference on mine. So ej20 phase 1 to ej25 phase 2 should make a significant difference!

 

Yes a huge difference, pulls harder than an angry rhino that's just had it's balls flicked

 

That sounds fun! I need to see that!
(Gutted I missed techenders but a sunny weekend with surf in Cornwall was too good to pass)

 

New rear lamda sensor arrived, so fitted that. Then made an extension up so it will actually work.

Also chopped a bit off the front of the shift rod so I can get 2nd gear now

How do you know someone has a scooby engine? you'll hear it

How do you know someone has a 2.5 scooby engine? They'll tell you!!!!(see pic)

 

I made a start today, got the engines off the back of the pickup

 

Glad youve finally stopped messing around swapping engines about - will soon be time to get mine finished

 

I know where there is a 3.3......

Will sort yours in a good weekends work once it's back.

 

As they say in America, there ain't no substitute for cubic inches

 

There ain’t no replacement for cubic displacement


Well apart from forced induction
I wonder why people don’t fit the Impreza turbo engines?

 

They do, but I personally don't think they are suited to a bus though.

Lots seem to go into beetles, which make them mental
