Well, It's been a little over a year since I bought my 914, and I'm finally moving on the swap, so it's about time I get this thread rolling! First of all, let it be known that rnellums is to blame for everything you're about to witness. He was kind enough to let me drive his swapped 914 for a classic car rally last May, and ooooh boy did I fall in love. I don't think I've ever had so much fun in a car. Me being a lifelong Subaru guy, I was obviously enamored. After expressing my love for that 914 to my stepfather, greggearhead, within a couple weeks, he was blowing me up to tell me that he had found me one, and that he knew a guy who could trailer it to me from Illinois. Obviously, I jumped on it! And now here I am, staring down the barrel of this swap. Wish me luck!

Welcome to the EZ3*R swap club!
A few tips: Your going to have to cut the center out of the trunk to fit a 6MT It's an early 6mt so you're going to have to keep the center diff and weld it up to get fwd or buy one of the JDM drift couplers. The ECU and harness are pretty much useless due to the immobilizer and no way to defeat it. I would sell the 6MT and rear diff, there's no need for it in a light car. (STI drag guys love that box) 5MT uses 10% less power to turn them a 6MT. 5MT weighs 75lbs less 5MT clutch and flywheel are cheaper JDM Spec B has the tallest gearing of any 6MT, not great for acceleration but awesome top end. If you need any help with your swap feel free to PM me |
