Subaru Surgery

Post by Smiffo »

Anyone have any experience with this company?

I'm nowhere near in a position to do it yet, but every now and again I consider a Subaru conversion.
Was hopping around the net last night and found them.

Curious if anyone here has used them?

Interesting,
good luck to them, 
cant see bellhousing or adapter plate listed?
good stuff there though and looks reasonable prices.
Worth calling them and chatting surely.

Good to see an exhaust option too. Looks pretty thorough setup.

Yep.

I’m not there yet, I’m just evaluating options for the future really.

Being able to buy a modular ‘plug and play’ kit seems like an attractive option. I gather others have had to fabricate their own bespoke solutions for various aspects of the conversion.

The RJES kit conversion is plug and play, the only thing to make is the exhaust, he did supply an exhaust in the early days.

Looks really encouraging, the only bits I couldn't get in the UK at the time for my ej2.5 conversion we're the short sump (maintaining the right oil capacity) and exhaust. I was lucky to be able to get both from the USA from Smallcar. If they're now available from this guy in the UK then that saves some hassle.
The RJES parts are fantstic quality so would 100% recommend. They also offer a loom conversion and coolant manifold reverse.
I used Syncrosport for all of my loom conversion and elecricary bits (Andy's a top bloke).
Few different options on engine mount bar etc so with a bit of thought you can put together a complete conversion that suits you rather than a predefined kit.
Cheers
