Do you use suby gears to convert the trans?

This is the only car I’ve had with a subi gears trans. Rest I use adapter plates, cheaper, bolt in and simple.

Can you build me an Ecu?  What engine should I look for?  We get JDM twin turbo Subys here, same deal or start simpler?

The day JJ hires me!! I’d love to be here full time. Franz and pat are super helpful. Jones are great towards me. I’d love to be here and learn from franz, Pat and JJ.

Sometimes I think maybe Andy is gonna take my place around here….  😎 😎    but I haven’t seen him spread any mud or do any blocking… 😎 😎

Been a wild ride, but it got me here 😎

Ah shit I missed the previous posts above this!!  I don’t wanna replace JJ, franz or pat, working in the shop with them is cool. I enjoy it, I feel they all teach me whatever they can. I’d love to learn more for you guys. And work at KCW full time!

Anyways, I found out what happened with that motor I built for Audrey’s van. It looks like I didn’t shorten the oil pick up tube enough. It was rubbing on the bottom of the oil pan. Nothing worse than self inflicted!!

Heres my turbo beetle. It’s a 2.5 subaru with a turbo. Unsure how much boost. Second gear makes you shit yourself. The rear apron and bumper will go back on. It’s just easy having it off right now.

Subaru swaps rock!!!!

hey is Audrey’s van still at KCW??? I was thinking if it is, I’ll have it shipped here and fix it/fuck with it here on my dime and time.

Hey Andy, could you touch base with me ? I have a local guy who wants to build a Suby powered hill climb buggy and I’d like him to be in touch with someone who knows what they are talking about. Thanks, John 970-872-4804 or bearcreekchairs@tds.net

I just read through all this thread and saw this and I connected the dots of what a cool group of people I have found. HUGE THANKS to John, Andy, and all the KCW crew for helping me with my cheap skate race car project! I have found both new friends and a new passion.

20 swaps lined-up really? Audreys vanagon is fine. Sitting in the back lot with a for sale sign on it.

Looks like you did some testing yesterday Travis?

Yeah franz it’s full blast, tons of them. Tons here and tons coming in for swaps.

I remember talking to you now Travis, that was a while ago!!

Heres the ghia. I don’t think car will never be a driver…but I sure hope the owner figures it out.
