Been seeing this EJ20G on Yahoo Auctions Japan/Buyee, a little surprised that it keeps getting relisted since it's a pretty low price for a holy grail EJ20G even if it needs bearings-

Nice to see the gold valve covers, it'd be interesting to put ...

If you're using boot kits that don't come with grease, any moly grease should work just fine, I wouldn't worry about buying expensive/"high performance" grease, as long as it is lithium grease with moly you should be set.

Also welcome!

I don't know first-hand if they're similar enough to work, but 1st gen Legacys are nearly identical mechanically to 1st gen Imprezas (as you stated).

Part number interchangeability looks like it just fits 2nd gen Legacy, and the old Legacy number doesn't seem to supersede into the Impreza/2nd gen ...

Hmm i see which one you're trying to click on from the main page, it seems to be working fine on my end, maybe clear your cookies or try a different browser?

I could probably copy whatever file you're trying to access and DM you a google drive link if that helps. Were you trying to get access to ...

It's always nice to have somewhere to come back to, shame places like facebook have killed most forums.

I'll probably post an update on my wagon after a local carshow on the 15th of this month, that way it'll look like my wagon is always way cleaner than it typically is (it's my 100 mile-a-day ...

Working for me as of today, the bbs looks like it had some error through the last week or so, I was worried but am happy to see it is still up!

Update!

Added a few grounds just in case and confirmed everything is good to go, since I was pretty confident there aren't any issues with the coil or ignitor, I backtraced the cam and crank sensors to the ECU connectors, crank sensor wires were confirmed good, but the negative signal and shield ...

Banging my head against this one as I'm getting my Touring Wagon back on the road.

When parked it was dead stock w/ 4.11 trans/diff added, it looks like the only wiring done before my ownership was a 12v ignition jumper wire to the starter, in place of the factory black connector. This allowed me ...

Not personally, if you can find someone to pick it up I'll make sure I pull it tomorrow. I'm hoping to get the shell towed out next weekend, I can set it aside for as long as you'll need (or when I head that way, I think I'll be as close as Richland late-May over Memorial Day weekend).

Pearl white, all doors are intact and bare shells, the right side doors have a crease down low but didn't break paint (damage from before I bought it 10+ years ago).

Once I get the last couple parts off of it that I need, it will basically be a bare shell with bumpers, fenders and doors, the hood ...

Sounds good! I'm hopefully getting rid of the car soon so I can drop the engine back into my wagon (it's disabled in front of my garage door), I'll set the decklid aside though.

This one was up for sale last week, very clean stock '93 TW with full black leather interior and door cards, very cool and a good reference for stock photos -

I like the look of the all black door cards since the inserts ...

For future reference on this, AGXs with 1/2 in spacers in the back fixed the sagging issues on one of my '91 sedans. Primitive Racing out of Oregon sells strut spacers that fit.

Did you ever find one? I'm in Everett but have a spare '91 on my parts car.

I use brass PEX fittings and lengths of generic straight hose for that sort of stuff. Sometimes you have to mix and match between the crimp fittings and the expansion fittings to get the right sizes.

One of my cars I even tried using PEX for the tube between the PCV and the manifold just to see ...

Thank you both - hi guys! It's been a while lol

This is very helpful info. That photo showed me I had it oriented all wrong, but looks like the engine needs to be out of the car in order to install it properly :) I'll see what I can figure out. I'm finding all sorts of swelled coolant hoses on ...

Shouldn't have sold my TW Grille LOL

I need a '92-'94 grille, turbo or non (turbo preferred), just got rid of mine a few months ago but decided to go in another direction with my cars.

Located anywhere in Western WA or willing to pay shipping!

Otherwise in the market for headlights and corner ...

Updating this thread, just selling the 16 inch "unknown" wheels for now, Speedlines sold locally, since I decided to get the TW back on the road I'm gonna be holding off on selling wagon stuff for the most part!

Absolutely mint! I wish my 91 was this clean... although if it was, maybe I'd be more hesitant to modify it! Nice job finding this one. How much did you end up paying if you don't mind me asking?


It was $4500, so less than I spent on the manual ($5500) but more than my TW ($3500). I definitely ...

Slow day at work, thought I'd post my new daily driver! It was posted on CL last Thursday and I drove down with my wife on Sunday to pick it up!

Bone stock SS 4EAT, everything works except for the A/C (original Calsonic compressor is shot) and the LED 3rd brake light. 1 owner, just passed 215K ...

Do they fit on pre-facelifts as-is? I know the core support is different so the headlights/hood/grille don't fit... Might have to switch it up on mine, that thing looks really good

For sure, just sitting in my garage!

Edited OP with link to photos, let me know if you have any questions or offers.

Added pics for a 2005-2009 Legacy sedan rear Cusco strut brace ($50)

1st gen wagon Whiteline rear strut brace ($50)

1st gen turbo/early WRX Toyosports catless downpipe ($100) - fits factory exhaust, 3 inch downpipe ...

Yeah if it's smaller stuff I could figure out a quote but body panels will be for local sale only.

Is the sunroof assembly available?

Does anyone know if they are the same as a sedan?

Sunroof will be available once I get to that point, it's stored outside at the moment so I'm holding off until I swap the interior out.

I can DM sometime next month ...
