Ive got a ej22t crank also, #2 rod journal needs polish but ill sell for cheap!

I know its already been asked..

What was the kit made for? non usdm impreza?

To get to the cam seals you shouldn't have any involvement with coolant unless you remove the radiator. You can do them without taking the rad out but its a pain. The only time you should see any oil is when you actually remove the seals, and even then the amount that will leak out is minimal. Grab ...

Not really.. i work in gainesville and my dad lives in Madison county so i go that direction a good bit.

Low CFM output. The small compressors simply can't meet the engine's air consumption at those speeds. Upgrading to a larger turbo is pretty much the only solution.

Take your catted DP to a scrap yard, the value of the cats will nearly pay for a brand new ebay wrx downpipe.

You've made great improvements to the car, nice work! And you are semi local to me, i drive through jackson county pretty regularly.

I had to remake one of my PCV hoses using fuel line and a plastic t from home depot, worked out great!

They are very easy to convert, just keep the a/c. I used a general r134a conversion kit from autozone and charged the system on my 93ss at work, blows nice and cold for about $20 parts.

Its usually best to keep the a/f sensor approx 6-12 inches from the turbo outlet. Ive ran both my zeitronix and aem that way with good results.

Ive got a couple of items for sale... for ej22t. (4) Con rods - great condition, no flaws. Ended up buying a few extras when i was reassembling the engine and these are the ones i didn't use. I paid about $10/ea shipped, would sell for that. (1) ej22t crankshaft - original crank from my engine. Rod ...

Thanks man, thanks for your help with the parts too!

Hey guys, Ive got a 93 Legacy SS. Now that it's running, its time to replace some of the missing interior pieces. I am looking for: -Driver & Passenger side sunvisors (believe they are grey) -Black radio bezel (surrounds radio) -Rear view mirror - Front seats (may be a stretch but ill throw it o...

I finally got to drive the car for the first time today (since i bought it blown up!!)

Good news is the trans and everything shifts smoothly and is very quiet.

Bad news is this car is slow as piss.

I just rebuild my engine and have approx 600-700$ in parts, but i had to buy a few lifters and also replaced the t-belt components.

Rather than order oem ones, i think going to replace the PCV system with a catch can on my car.

I just went through the same thing and broke nearly all of them. unfortuntely rubber + oil + time = HARD lol.

Got the car running today!! Thanks for your guys help.

Good news!

I reinstalled the timing belt (correctly) and it started on the first hit. The engine runs great.. does have a tick so i may need to bleed the HLA but aside from that im thrilled. Thanks for your help guys!

I dont generally loctite anything with a timing belt job.

Yeah, i didn't realize there were two timing marks on the belt pulley and i think i used the wrong mark. Ive gotta bring my breaker bar & chain wrench home tomorrow and yank off the crank pulley to see though.

Update:

I should be more patient before making threads with my problems LOL.

After looking at some pictures online i discovered there are two timing marks on the crank t-belt pulley, and i think i may have used the outer mark rather than the inside mark, and therefore my belt timing actually is off.

I tried adding some oil into the cylinders to help lube the rings and build a little more compression.. when trying to start the engine now i get some smoke from the airbox. Since i know the cam timing is dead on (checked it again) this would lead me to believe that the ignition time is off somehow....

Okay guys, I just rebuilt the ej22t in my 93 tleg. Engine turns over etc, but will not crank. so far: - re-checked cam timing (t-belt) - checked spark at all 4 plugs. - spark plugs seem to be gas fouled. - engine has compresssion, engine turns over much faster with each of the spark plugs removed. S...

Okay the engine is in, trying to figure out a no-start condition. Ive got the 3 plugs for the main harness plugged in by the battery, and also the 3 plugs by the pitch mount plugged in, and the body ground cable by the starter is good. I jumped the black connector by the steering column and the CEL ...
