Hi All, My son Tom has after market mb allow wheels similar to what Nelson described a couple days ago. 5x112 bolt pattern, 7 inch rims with a 25 mm or 1 inch off set. They fit his 86 2wd westy about

Still, the Japanese market gets 290hp versions, which are sold nowhere else. Though you won't hear about them, I was sent a factory power/torque graph of theold-model Type RA engine, which I came

I went to the LA Auto Show today and found a couple of interesting tidbits I thought I'd share with the group. A Subaru rep informed me that the Impreza WRX will be on display next week at the show

US models... coz the poor fools missed out on the WRX and it's derivitives :-b Allan.

Nelson, My 87 with close ratio 5 speed turns 4000 RPM @ 70 mph as well. There is a gear ratio chart somewhere within "Tom's Vanagon Website" (not sure) in the engine conversion section. Dale 87 wolf

Get all the parts they(KEP) are sure will fit the engine.The rest has to be designed and fabricated. Imho the big problem may be wiring so the manual will be needed. Leon 85 Subwagen Westy softcom

I think it is the same adaptor kit as for 2.2l engine but check with KEP to be sure. I would use one from 97 on.If you have manual tranni use heavy duty clutch set. You will need new exhaust, wiring
