The standard 2.2L uses the regular rockers found on most cars but I heard that the 1.8L uses roller type rockers with oil filled lifters. So I use the 1.8L cam which is different to the 2.2L cam so has to be used with the rollers rockers. I'm told using the 1.8L set up gives you a little more power ...

Time to clear out the garage and raise some cash to cover my Suzuki Swift rally engine re-build!! I have a pair of 2.2L heads with 1.8L cams and roller rockers for sale. They are in good shape and were some spare heads I had. Been in the garage 2 years so I'm going to do a valve and seal job before ...

I swapped jobs when I lived in CA. The option was to move to Costa Rica or MA. I went for MA with comuting to Costa Rica. Then the rally bug got hold again.....hahahaha

Yeah I'd always liked the Swift GTI since they came out. I liked the MK1 and the MK2. They go really well just the build quality is dire. The wiring loom even worse. The engine is sweet as is the handling. So should be fun to rally.

Well sorry to say I've turned to the dark side and bought a Suzuki Swift GTI rally car down in Costa Rica. They don't run Subaru's etc and only have a classes for N1,N2, N3 To send the dear old Legacy down there would cost over $5000 so buying a car there made sense. Even though it's a fast car it's...

Well after since changing the oil the box is like new! I read the posts and thought yeah right! but I can't believe just changing the oil could make such a difference. Now I'm a happy camper as I don't have swap the box.

I read through the posts here and thought I'd swap my gearbox oil. I had in some heavy weight stuff when I ran the car in the CA heat. Here in MA all was well until the cold set in. The second gear has always crunched since I fitted the 100,000 box in. Now the crunching is worse in the cold weather....

Soz Josh I was at work and in a bit of a hurry and realized after it should have been in here. Thanks for the move.

Not a Subaru but very funny. Oh that English humour!

Well I'm a lazy bugger and just slotted everything! It all held up to 2 years of CA rallying. Plus I tighten those bolts really well. Interesting deveplopment with my rear STI set up was this strange problem: The suspension had thi knocking noise. I thought it was the bushes etc The noise sounded me...

PM sent...was a busy weekend. I have the struts with me ready to ship.

ok I checked. KS FS 22 on the front. KS RS 22 on the rear. Rear top has nothing on it apart from a date. Front top has 3F-0090-3F

I hope this helps. Let me know if you want them....oh I PM'd you with a phone number answer machine is always on so leave a message .

I was going to split the shipping whatever it costs. The tops I will try to check today. I called King and told them about my car, the stages and set up I had. The had a list of springs available and supplied based on my info. I know the fronts are 250lbs and the rears are supposed to be macthed to ...

I checked the struts and they looked like new apart from chipped painted from bouncing around in the service car. The springs are specials I talked to King about. I bought 2 sets. The tops came from some guy either on this forum or the impreza forum. He had an STI and swapped for group N well that's...

Well I don't think you need to go stiffer. These springs are 250LBs rating. They actually lower the Legacy by an inch as the STI strut is about an inch shorter. You have to slot the rear top mount holes in the body and dremmel out the top rear strut hub mounting holes to give some negative camber. T...

I believe the tops are stock STI which I have on the rally Legacy and they work very well. I will weigh the struts and get back to you on a price.

dropped to $500 OBO

no sniffs so I figure the price is tad to high......well when selling we always things are worth more. So I'm dropping to $600

depends if someone wants only the struts and I get close to the money I want. The springs I think are $400+ new

Greg, I prefer to sell as a complete lot. The Struts fit the 90 Legacy as you can see from my link. They work very well. I never had any problems with the ones on the car. GR2's I bent a bunch. Barrett Dash does a nice Billie insert. http://www.specialstage.com/classifieds/showproduct.php?product=94...

Make a good offer if anyone is interested.

Well I figure I'm never going to rally the Legacy in the near future if at all! so my spare set of struts are up FS. They are as new struts only doing a few hundred miles on an STI before they were replaced for rally items. The struts come with brand new king springs and top mounts. The front struts...

Yeah! I figured on dropping in a 2.5/2.2 motor as I did with my rally car

working out the conversation to $ =$4700...ouch!
