RedAce Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Yes many WRX parts will fit our cars, but only up to the year 2004... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fischer881 Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Will a strut tower brace match up? I have been looking for one for some time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eekay Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Not sure if a strut tower brace from a WRX will fit a BD/BG body. However, I have two front strut tower braces for sale for the BD/BG right now. One is the STi TMIC brace and the other is an SYMS straight. If you're interested in them, let me know. You can see pictures of them at http://www.soapintheintercooler.com/ on the main page in the "Stuff for sale" section. My 9.3 cups EJ22 makes me feel like my **** is 2.8 decimeters!

fischer881 Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 IIRC, but I could be totally wrong, any EJ transmission will bolt up to any EJ engine. As far as changing over electrical and ECU's im not sure. Thats way above my head! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnifeyMcShanker Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 I would wager you could get everything you need for under $1000. But that's without labor... It's not the most difficult thing to do but it aint no oil change, so you should be very comfortable with working with cars before you start.

legacyman24 Posted May 21, 2009 Author Share Posted May 21, 2009 i have bein workin on cars since i was 8 so im comfortable with them. were can i get all the parts or do u have any idea were i can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnifeyMcShanker Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Just look around junkyards, there's some subaru-specific ones over here. You'll need: -(of course) the tranny + mounts -a rear diff that's the same ratio as said tranny (A/T is different so you can't use your old one) -clutch pedal + linkage -clutch slave cylinder -clutch master cylinder -lines going to and from these 2 cylinders -clutch + related hardware -flywheel -Center console from a MT car -shifter + linkages + all bushings/boots Again, I bet you could get all this for under $1000 if you work hard at it, but that means getting everything at a junkyard and not buying anything new.

KnifeyMcShanker Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 No problem. Also, I forgot to add you'll need a smaller brake pedal too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedAce Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 I don't believe a strut tower brace will match up... Here is a website that sells them though http://www.turbowholesale.com. Although I would not waste my money on one of those because they are utterly worthless... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I would not waste my money on one of those because they are utterly worthless... Actually, if you've ever tracked a car, you notice quite a different with and without a strut brace. However, outside of that, they don't do much... My 9.3 cups EJ22 makes me feel like my **** is 2.8 decimeters! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
