Subaru engine on the kitchen floor, subaru engine on the front deck, and soon to be subaru engine in my room

Gooooood times.

nice!
my place:
gs750 head on the countertop mid rebuild, bent xs650 forks on the wall, ej251 heads on the shelf by the TV, early 60's BSA fenders hanging on the wall.

is having the backyard scattered with car parts as redneck as the frontyard?

Right now - front calipers on my desktop where my keyboard usually goes. Typing is quite a chore right now. I'm meticulously painting them red with a waaaaaay too small brush.

Backyards are inherently different. They're not usually visible from the road. You're not really advertising your crap collection. It could fall into the "Urban Junkyard" catagory but IMHO that's not redneck. I've got an 11 car garage filled with a bunch of crap. No cars, but there is a boat. Found a '68 Cadillac back there once.

Ooh ooh this is the makings of a good off topic thread! I got a VF8 turbo lying on the bedroom floor, a AWIC sitting ontop the speaker, a VF11 turbo being used to prop the back door open during hot days, 5 rally tires in the basement, along with a turbo legacy dash. The engine is outside though.

I've got a subaru parts cabinet, and taillights and a rear cubby tray for my outbakc on the floor. No engine parts...yet.

EJ22 Block halves
5MT housing + shifter forks

And for the record, here's the kitchen

oh man.. its gonna be a fun turbo build.. I really can't wait

No pictures, but I have in my garage at this moment:

1 - 1991 Subaru Legacy (taking the XT out for the weekend)
3 - sets of wheels... one brand-new set of XT6 wheels, one set of EA82 steelies, and one set of Legacy steelies (still with tires)
1 - EJ18 longblock (with misc parts elsewhere on the floor, from intake manifold to EGR valve to coilpack)
1 - OEM, brand-new, complete, still-in-the-package, BC/BJ/BF Legacy steering rack
3 - boxes full of over $1,000 worth of new OEM parts for all 3 cars, including several now-obsolete parts for the 79 wagon
More I'm surely forgetting

We won't get into my parts closet, that has everything from the Legacy's old 16mm rear swaybar to XT6 pods.

Assholes! Too much Subaru going on in one household! I've spent time with you freaking Kanucks. .. . I know what your strange ways are all aboooooot, and they are something to be truly feared!!!

Mike- you still want my rims possibly? Off an '86 GL, same style as your older generation GL.

Posted: **Sat Sep 23, 2006 6:05 am**

Eek! I don't have the money right now

Posted: **Sat Sep 23, 2006 2:56 pm**

damn, okay...

Posted: **Sat Sep 23, 2006 10:09 pm**

Are you itching to get rid of them?

Posted: **Sat Sep 23, 2006 10:20 pm**

Sure. PM sent.

Posted: **Sun Sep 24, 2006 11:30 am**

not just a 2.2.. its gonna be a ej22 w/ vf22, and new well basicly everything except the block (which has been massively machined). All bolts, nuts, washers, gaskets, hoses, accessory's are being replaced. Intake manifold is being constucted using two different manifolds. All turbo plumbing is using only stock parts from various subys.

can't wait to start breaking transmissions (already have a couple spares)

but yeah, in case anyone is actually interested, we're gonna have a house warming party on the 30th of Sept.. you know.. a few wobbly pops, some friends, and some music.

OK, here we go.

4 Legacy Turbo wheels (sans tires)

Turbo Crossmenber

EJ25 (phase 1) block (no internals)

EJ22T block half (looks like it's the drivers side) with an EJ25 crank in it

Pedal box (from an RS?)

A water pump (probably a turbo pump) is behind the crossmember.

A metal oil seperator plate

Ashtray

There is an EJ25 with pistons in it

A rear main seal

Elmers glue

Sandals

Jack handle

Ratchet strap

A box of engine accessories (coolant crossover, fuel rails)

Turbo heat shield

A single-cam head in the background

A FRAM 4460 oil filter

A pot in the way back

A trunk mat under the cardboard box

Some misc. sockets amidst some stainless steel mesh line

That's about what I can make of all of it.

Posted: **Mon Sep 25, 2006 7:52 pm**

Oh phil, you're soooo close

Posted: **Tue Sep 26, 2006 3:58 am**

oh shit, there are two single cam heads!

Is that an EA block on the bottom? I've never seen one torn apart.

I'm close enough! What's my prize?
