Hey guys I may have just had a sweet deal drop into my lap for a subaru 2.5 engine and trans (local wreck). Might also have the opportunity to grab some other parts off of it. Looking through the Suby build threads, it looks like most everyone grabs the ECU, Wiring Harness, and instrument cluster.
What other goodies would you recommend I grab? I wouldn't be doing the swap right away but I'd love to get as much as I can now when it's all coming out of the same car. Appreciate the feedback |

Great feedback on the pricing guys...and wouldn't ya know it, as one door closed, another one opened. Today I found a 2001 Forester S with 137k. Test drove it this evening. Seemed to run well. Seller says it does have a slight manifold leak, external, oh and I could hear a slightly noisy pulley or belt during spirited acceleration. Asking price is $1100. I offered him a little less but he said he's firm on the price but would throw in a set of heads and cams he had planned on using for another 2.5 rebuild if I'm still interested.
The car is complete and interior is in decent shape so I could probably recoup some $$$ parting it out and then scrapping it. Anyways, it's late. Gonna sleep on it tonight and see what tomorrow brings (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |
