I was (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drooley.gif) over Subarugears sight and noticed two new (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) items.
 that would make a EZ swap a lot easierAnd this lovely device.  Lets you see the oil level in the trans. |

Yeah that canbus emulator is $500 but their stuff is HIGH quality. Love the trans fluid level indicator. Didn't see that yet.
Smallcar has an interface board to emulate the top 7 fault codes for the sensors that won't be plugged in. Also helpful for later OBD 2 donor cars. Smallcar Interface board Reminds me of that big box tonyakavw made to emulate the sensors on his car. |

That "Subaglass" gear oil level indicator sounds like a cool idea, but I can't figure out how/where it it mounted. Is it supposed to be TIG-ed in the case? It seems like a better alternative would be for Subagears to include the Subaglass in their "Subaplate" block-off plate ($200 incl worldwide shipping). Hmmm, I wonder if I can adapt a sightglass into my Bremar block-off plate...

I think there is a plug that can be removed on the side of the trans. There is a tapped threaded hole next to it conveniently.
Here's the details on how to install: Subaglass Great idea on the block off plate. I think that is Ian's next evolution. Definitely a better place for it. |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) Figure out the proper size of the bung, tap it, then get one of these in the proper size.
 M14 - M42 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) Done. I like the idea, that it should have been incorporated into the rear cover. But they do a lot of flipped ring, and pinion swaps, and this product could be used by all of their customers, and not just us 2WD mid engine guys. |
