Trnsplant part II
 
It doesn't have the full exhaust on it yet but probably will have and be running by this afternoon. I should get it Friday or maybe not till Saturday. I don't want to go to Torrance on a Friday afternoon. 95 2,2 Subaru with the 94 intake. Not me under the car. I already have the big Audi Brakes and new shocks with 15" wheels.

they modify the oil pan so no ground clearance issue and it is a 1989 2wd, not a Westy, I don't plan on camping in it a lot and didn't want all the extra weight involved.
Like I said though I put the big brakes on the front and Brembos on the rear so it does stop. This should get 20mpg, the old VW got 13 mpg. and this should have around 130 hp compared to the new at factory 90hp from the old VW.

Just a short drive for you, SmalCar in Tacoma does this for a business, have you heard of them?

RWebb 09-23-2009 03:13 PM

I have. Did not know they were just a 10 hr roundtrip away. Thx for that info.

I may visit next summer. The 911 gets better tranny first tho.
