Subaru Converter/Installer

Post by izzybarnard »

Afternoon
Just wondered if anyone could recommend a good Subaru Engine Converter/Installer ?
I've sourced all of the doner car bits and would like to go the rjes route for the conversion parts but I'm struggling to find someone who can do the physical conversion for me to a factory looking standard at a reasonable cost ?
Any recommendations greatly received via PM.
Cheers
Izzy

Yehhhh, I've seen one of their over arm attempts. Looking for a professional fit/finish.

First thing to do is contact Richard at RJES and get your loom converted and buy all the conversion parts that you will need. With the instructions supplied with the kit any decent mechanic could do the job.

Yehh I've got a quote from Richard for the conversion parts he can supply, exhaust and short sump are an issue and not sure about the power steering pipes ?
I'm really looking for someone who's done a few conversions and knows all of the tricks to get a factory finish and no bodges.

No need to change the sump, brickwerks do power steering pipes for the vw power rack then just get a hydraulic garage to weld the correct connections on to the Subaru pipes coming from the pump. Put your location up and somebody may be able to help.
