Hi all, It happened to me again.. For long story short, I had my 2nd JDM EJ20G engine installed almost half years ago and now the engine oil in the coolant system again( the reason I put the 2nd engine in because the engine oil in the coolant system). I checked the coolant all turn brown and oil see...

If you are really wants the low end toque for your Legacy then go rebuild it, but if you don't care of the low end power, then go fine a EJ20G and you will be trouble free since most of the JDM engine comes with low miles. For myself, I would like to keep and rebuild the old EJ22T.... I really miss ...

Yep, its the same as the EJ22T PCV valve. I just replce it when I do my engine swap.

Hope it helps!

Maybe you could try to order a Ver.3 STi metal head gasket for your safe side of over boost.
I think we should have a Legacy Turbo meet once in Toronto.....
What do you guys think Mikec and Nico??

I see!! Thanks for reply!

Ben

Yep, the EJ20G engine intake manifold will not sits the coil pack, all you have to do is to move it forward to near the AC pump or alternator. I moved the coil to the Alternator and redo my spark plug wire. The way I did is buy a roll of MSD wire then take off your old set of spark plug wire and mod...

Just has 1 question on your rear AGX setting. how can you set it to 6.5 on the dial?

Ben

You won't disappoint on the AGX, I use my AGX for track, TSD rally, Rally-X , winter Rally and daily drive and still have good ride feeling on it..... good choice!

Ben

Thanks Lee!

Hi Peter, could you please have some write up for hows your setup?
I know I was stuck on this ECU, coil things for long time since my first EJ20G swap. and now you just gives me some light to find the way to go for the full swap.
Good luck on your engine and will see what will be your result!

Ben

Thanks Nick, I will go to the junkyard to find a pink top for the fix.

Ben

Hi people, just has problem on my engine and needs some infor help from you guys. The shop just find out that one of the injector is dead. Since the engine was swap, I keep using the old EJ22T injector (pink top) on the new EJ20G engine because one of the injector from the EJ20G was dead when the en...

No, the only one that fits to the 91-94 turbo is the one from GC style imperza!

I try to smach on it and it won't engauge. Then I take...

I just take my tanny to the tranny shop to see what had happened on missing the 4th gear. Today the shop called me and told me that "I have to replace the 4th gear in the main shaft with identical grove mark on it" The shop can't find any parts for the tranny repair so I would like to ask ...

I am running the same setting as your turbo. But my idle is stay above 1000rpm. and I know the car is running too rich too since everytime when I after start the car, I could smell fuel. I know my coolant temp. sensor has problem (I put an new one on already) but the car could boost over 16psi witho...

It is very light weight and its good low chass u...

Check the ignitor and the coil pack.
