hows the power on that pig with 235s???

I drove her for the first time yesterday(with the tires on her) and she seems to scoot pretty good still. She does have the 2.2liter, and 4.11's so that helps i imagine.

it basically equates to about 6" of lift on the oldeer series of cars.she will geta couple more inches for body clearance.right now i think it is about 5.25 inches-ish of lift.but i have like 13 inches under the rear diff with 235's...

i imagine she ill get a round even better when i put the Dual Range transmission in her.:awesomework:
i have to build it , so it may take a bit(as i am pretty retarded when it comes to building time consuming things....)

cheers, b
 
explain the dual range transmission please, is it out of an 80s roo with low range?

IT IS. it will be a mixture of several.An RX trans, with the low gears of a regular D/R, and the 4.11's of a later trans.
all packed in an RX box.
that will will be connected via an adapter plate to the EJ engine.
cheers, b
 
This:redneck:
my average in town with a heavy **** you foot(not big injectors,barely turned up)is 18mpg.on the road with a heqvy load can be up to 21 depending on how little my **** feels that day.

the impreza with 5 CEl codes, a couple including idle air control snesor, egr voltage thingy, and injector voltage regulation blah blah...still gets like 22 with me on the skinny pedal...when i reseal the other motor, and switch exhaust i'll let you know the difference.
cheers, b
