another Subaru

[RSR 555]

Oh nice.. I miss read what you posted prior You're lucky, our ones (albiet 4 bangers) are hidden behind a panel in the boot section. I search everywhere under the dash for it

Those powersteering pumps are great when working good.. my friend Muzz with the dark grey vortex used one of them but had to rebuid due to noisey bearing

Hey Paul, I wouldnt be surprised if its an on demand steer pump, the car tracks dead nuts straight and feels a bit heavy in the front end ( my impression anyway) was thinking its the extra weight of the engine, maybe its the steering system.

oh, also currently rounding up fsm's. One of 2 manuals on ebay here:p

How did I miss this post/thread whatever? Great find - even if the wheel is on the other side . I think I now know how the six fits in as a std Vortex four does not have that mouth like at the front, think it is straight across. Old late 70's toy celica did a straight six as a XX Supra Celica, it got longer nose panels, looks like XT no longer externally.

Wonder if L Series dash and instrument all fit straight in

Has the missus been informed yet?


What are the power specs of this 2.7 litre six do you know yet Mark? 450 cc per pot for the 1.8 litre, 450cc per pot for the 2.7

50 poo cent increase in capacity ....

haha, hey Jonno, yea, the little lady gave me to big ok:)..another subaru.... according to her and my boy. The L series is no where close to this one, its unique to the xt model, and I really dont know them very well. I dont know the specs yet, currently aquireing fsm's. I think its rated at 145 hp ive been told, not sure.
Cheers, Mark

Hmmm, so with a lazy turbo conversion ...200HP? You got the brakes to take it

This would be a good chance for someone to post up a shot of a standard XT4 Vortex engine bay

eleccy suspension too?
