Well, the time has come to start documenting the whole ordeal and process. I've decided to do a subaru conversion. I hope I can have this done by January 1st, in hopes of doing the "Hangover Rally" once again.
The plans, somewhat flexible, involve: Renegade Hybrids Kit Renegade Hybrids Radiator EJ25 Normally Aspirated (USDM) engine Stock (Subaru) Fuel injection Stainless Steel fuel lines And some possible additions include: Adjustable Front Sway Bar to replace the current one Larger wheels Lower profile tires New interior Back pad Relocate power (Stereo) Still unresolved and undecided Fuel Pump. Which one, and where to mount. How to run coolant hoses How to vent warm air Whether or not to cut/replace current front bumper. So... this is her farewell picture Attached image(s) |

Well, the time has come to start documenting the whole ordeal and process. I've decided to do a subaru conversion. I hope I can have this done by January 1st, in hopes of doing the "Hangover Rally" once again. Hey Carlitos way, Sorry, I bought the last engine/trans mount from Renegade, I did not buy the whole kit. I bought the motor adaptor, 9" clutch/pressure plate kit from KEP, and bought, Just the Engine/Trans mount from Renegade. I am using the stock WRX/STI radiator I have my NA EJ25 2.5L in my shop, My motor is out of a 2004' Subie Forester that had been rearended totaled, My Subie dude started the engine to let me hear it run, before I bought it he is the guy the Subaru dealer buys from when they need an engine for a customer. The speedometer in the car read 50,106 miles I got the complete wire harness Main ECU and all other computers, including Cruise control and engine fuse/relay box, both under dash and in passenger compartment I also got the water heater core, saw a great way to make the heater install on another web site as I buy and receive parts, I am chcking off the list and performing work as needed to keep my project going forward. It Sounds like we are both doing the same project |
