Its ugly, particularly the rear....



I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder:) My wife loves it, and when shes happy the earth continues to spin (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

PS.. This replaced our Vue, which blew a new Bridgestone on a corner on a wet day, before Thanksgiving. Just thankful they all came out next day, battered but alive. The cottonwood was the only thing that kept them from landing in the creek upside down. My oldest was sitting seat belted in on the passenger side, but ended up in the back seat. Had he stayed in his seat, there is no doubt that it would have not turned out well for him. Happy Easter and best of luck getting your vehcles back on the road. Especially that fugly Forrester. Now there is a car that has a profile only its owner could love (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

WOW! doesnt that EZ30R look like it was made for that engine bay?? FITS like a glove!

Renegade Hybrids Engine Cradle works with this engine also, lines right up with motor mount position.

See pics. It will be about 1.5 inch higher in engine bay. Still waiting on motor mounts, temporary smaller spacer in place of mounts.

This is just a mock up, Have to pull back out to put flywheel on. (being resurfaced)

as i stated earlier, engine will be about 1.5 inch higher, but look at where it is now. NOT bad. When mounts come in I think it will be perfect!

Friggen awesome (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Just as I had imagined it. You got a smoking deal on that engine. I hope the price comes down in the next few years so I can afford to do one of theses (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif)

That looks like it will be a screamer alright and looks pretty nice too! Just wondering, do you plan on fabing some tin to seperate the upper engine comp from the lower?

No I don't think so. In fact I'm going to try to get rid of most of the leftover engine shelf in there. Less weight the better.

That fit is great! I was under my project car last night grinding welds, thinking that you should get rid of all that unnecessary sheet metal. It would really clean up the engine bay.

Yes cut the unneeded sheet metal out - that stuff is sharp and will cut you up every time you work on the engine. Will look a lot better to boot.

Fits like a glove. Stock Subaru mounts fit right into the holes of the renegade mount. Only mod was to made the holes slightly wider on the mount where the mount bolt comes through. The 3.0 liter mount had the 2 studs on the mount a little closer together. But same angle, and slipped right into the 2.0 mount location! Sweet!

final position of intake, yep slight mod needed to rear firewall, but maybe i might be able to slip a 90 degree Coupler in there.

I like that you can see the Spider intake real well.
