Re: How do I get to my spedometer cable?

Does anyone have the part number for the part that goes from the cable to the trans? My speedo isn't working in the rally car, and just took off the DP and everything to get to it (with a new cable in hand) only to find it is two parts.... and guess which part is broken? Thats right, the one that I ...

Re: TD04, 4.11FD turbo tranny

Hopefully this tranny sticks around when I have more free cash available for the rally car.

Re: Gear ratios for rallycross?

Usually have to search around for the right transmission. Search for Subaru Transmission Charts that has the ratios listed. JDM transmissions usually have very high Final Drives.

Re: Gear ratios for rallycross?

Getting the highest final drive will help you tremendously. 4.44.

In Open Light you are allowed any engine size as long as it is NA and within some other parameters. EJ25's are the most common Subaru engines run in that class, some of them built up quite nicely.

Re: You probably will think I'm crazy (ditching 2.2T)

Yea, BigGreen ended up going to Open Class (displacement was greater than 2.7L) but he had a lot of track days under his belt that allowed him to be exempt from the Novice driver Open Class rule. He is a hell of a driver though! Chatted with him a bunch in between stages as I was co-driving for a PG...

Re: You probably will think I'm crazy (ditching 2.2T)

I've already got the fully caged rally car. Bought it for $1800, logbooked, raced for several years in MN at several rallies. Problem is that since I am a novice driver, I have to run NA AWD, no turbos. Already have appealed to Rally America asking for an exemption since the car is balls slow, but w...

You probably will think I'm crazy (ditching 2.2T)

Well, I need some advice on ditching the 2.2T that came with my 1994 Legacy Sport turbo rally car, and the easiest way to put in an NA engine. I have tried applying for an exemption to run a turbo engine with an AWD car for a novice license, but was denied. So if I want to race soon with Rally Ameri...

I just picked up a 94 Leggy as well, that I have to work on getting an NA engine in to run OL..... I probably will nev...
