Post by 00imprezars »

i have a complete JDM legacy RS-RA swap kit here, motor, tranny, ecu, and wiring. this is by far the best motor you could almost plug and play into a legacy (add a few wires)

For those who would like to know more about this particular model:

-This motor was originally built to compete for the land speed record (RA=record attempt)
-Less than 1000 ever made
-Hand-built and blueprinted by a builder who represented what is now Subaru Tecnica International
-ej20g
-Perfectly balanced to clutch/flywheel
-Hand ported heads. Huge ports
-Forged rods/pistons
-Sodium-filled valves
-Closed deck
-Over-balanced rotating assembly
-Gold valve covers
-IHI VF-8 turbo (about the same as a VF-24. RHB5 compressor w/P18 exhaust side)
-Quick ratio 4.11 final drive 5 speed transmission

This motor comes complete with everything, including air-water intercooler Motor/transmission have an astoundingly low 12,000 km!!!

You might want to drop a line to the site owners since we all know that you are with East Coast Swappers and that this engine is at your shop. It would just be a courtesy since you are not a registered vendor here but are selling this as a vendor on other boards... :wink:

DLC or Legacy777

And I too am surprised this engine is still out there. I often regret selling mine to Splinter. It was tempting, for about a second... :evil:

Kinda bringing back an old thread... But RA= Record Attempt
Thats a new one on me. If they were going for a land speed record the why would they give it a close ratio 4.11 box.

RA=Racing Altered

I think RA means Rally-Applicant...

The Spec C Type RA's aren't "record attempt" cars. Neither are the RA-R's. But all Type RA's were road versions of the rally cars to conform to production standards.
