Impreza L with H6 Swap

[MrUltimatium1]

lol, the guy who said "holy shit" sounds like my friend :O ....shes a sexy beast ;)

[SnowWolfJones]

wow 0_0

[metallinen1]

well.. this is awesome :D i know 4 cylinders have potentials in subarus.. but this is cool ! u sell it ?

[mattplasse88]

Is that a redneck Subaru?

[kantthinkofasn77]

got my tri-turbo h3. smokes anyone

[2soccerfreak2]

@kantthinkofasn77 sick. what kind of turbos? gt35s? precision 6262s? haha

[kantthinkofasn77]

@2soccerfreak2 lol precision all the way man



[Nicodemus2007]

I'll do ya one better. I've got a VW van I put an H6 in.

I can get the front wheels off the ground!

[deathraptor1]

8k for an STI swap?? Are you doing the work or paying someone to do it?

[kenfo0]

the h6 is SO yesterday. it's all about the h7 now.

[fabiomarine]

@kenfo0 H7??

7 cilinders???

[kenfo0]

@fabiomarine too late. now the h8 is HOTTTT! get yours now, while supplies last!!!

[Shishizurui]

i love the H6 it sounds like a chevy 4.3 but we all know the H6 is better!

[KOartist35]

You forgoot to change your blinker fluid eh?

[JUDGExNOCTURNAL]

Yeah I second that more videos of this thing I want to see one in action.

[2soccerfreak2]

any chance you can upload more videos of this thing!?

[2soccerfreak2]

sounds like an n/a monster :)

[sonicnofadz]

Looks like that car was sourced from a junkyard

[02baruRS]

definitely has a quicker subie rumble. not as slow and pronounced but its still there. awesome swap dude. now for some paint.

[VIsubby]

lol bulletproof my ass. in N/a yes have u all seen the rodsin an h6 lol I can tell none of u have...first replace with H rods then ur good with pistons. Nothing wrong with turbo 4banger H6 is kinda like me with a supercharger in my impreza just to be different. But 16psi built forged block not bad..bet 20 psi might net u a good 550 then with tuning again do what u like Subby's can go any which way thats why I love them so

[poop4256]

omg

[shades2]

Nice sound. :)

[DirQ89]

Holy Shit! hahaha that's great!

[TheDrunkLemon]

it doesnt really matter what kinda engine you get, as long as you yourself are happy with it.

[richardlyew]

this is wicked

[rallitek69]

if i were going for all out performance i would get a turbo swap .......but an h6 swap is a nice thing because n/as are more reliable than a turbo .........they get better gas milage ......and you dont have to pay for premium .......

i would do this to have a fun ....practical.......reliable(e­g33s r bulletproof from what i hear) and economical blend of a car ... my $0.02

[nick081980]

does anyone know if it is as easy with the newer impreza's to do the H6 swap. say on an my05 rs with a 2.5 . i am guessing you would need to swap engine , loom, clutch, gearbox plus other small things. am i wrong or right.

[RamRodRacer]

thats car would be amazing after some paint and a not so gay exhaust setup

[DaedalusZero]

@RamRodRacer - What's so gay about the exhaust?

[RamRodRacer]

@DaedalusZero its out the side and it comes out at the end of the door it just looks stupid

[MetalheadEchidna]

beeeaaast.. dress it up like a 22B now :P

[donvitolover182]

Side exit? Really? Fucking ricer

[Ryoukun16]

@donvitolover182 Way to call yourself out, fucking ricer.

[Jessekrs123]

@donvitolover182 You clearly have no idea what kind of ingenuity is needed for a swap like this. I believe this car was on a forum somewhere... maybe NASIOC, and they turned this into a racecar. If the engine is an EG33. then they either have to hybrid the wiring, or redo the wiring all together, and relocate the radiator & fans to fit the motor. And, as 2jz said, if the engine was an EZ, you would absolutely have to re-wire everything, which is far from a weekend job. GTFO

[tallcoreyc]

hey im doing an h6 swap which transmission you used?

[v67oldstyle]

@tallcoreyc Not to go in front of the gut who made the vid, but really the only ones to use is an 04+ WRX 5 speed or and i believe an 06+ STI 6 speed

anything else will just fall apart on you

or if you want an auto any subaru trans with a 4.44 final gear, and a good tranny cooler

[2jzgte21]

@tallcoreyc any subaru transmission will bolt right up to the EG33. But you need to ask yourself the following questions; what gear ratio you want, 5 or 6 speed or auto, what type of racing will you be doing, whats your power goal, will you be building the internals, dog mesh or syncromesh gears, and is it your daily or a full track car or something in between? After you know those answers then you can choose for yourself. For now just stick with what you've got and LATER choose if you want more

[kohn1988]

@2jzgte21 really the only 2 manual trans that will bolt up to the eg33 svx motor is the 2.5rs or the 6 speed sti tranny t

[kawikid20o2]

@kohn1988 yup so all of em...thanks for trying though

[Jessekrs123]

@kohn1988 wrong. I know a guy who swapped an EG33 into his legacy with a FWD 5 speed. look it up on nasioc, its a 94 legacy with an eg33 swapped in. unfortunately his 6th injector got stuck open and it went up in flames

[xjcherokeejon]

Love the sidepipes ;)  Gotta add a little redneck to your scoobie.

[boothoot]

When it came out the garage off that little bump it looked stiff as fuck. Reminds me of my Tein coils haha. I love it!

[supradave9]

so i have no clue when it comes to subarus, just wondering were the h6 engine comes from?

[v67oldstyle]

@supradave9 The H6 engine came from the legendary SVX, only produced from 92 to 97, mines a 92, and considering there were only abut 14000 sold in that time frame, its kinda hard to find one in good condition

[supradave9]

@v67oldstyle ooooo like what are the specs on it? it sounds N/A but like what size is the motor

[v67oldstyle]

@supradave9 Its 3.3 engine, stock HP is 230, 228 torque

They came only N/a, but ppl have S/c Turboed and even twin-turboed them

There pretty much an EJ22 with 2 more cylinders

[TheFartenator]

@v67oldstyle also available in the liberty/outback H6. Not sure if you got them wherever you are, but over here the EZ30D engine is pretty common.

[v67oldstyle]

@TheFartenator EG33 and EZ30 are not exactly the same but close

EG33 is a 3318cc engine, 230hp, 228LB torque, compression ratio is 10 to 1

EZ30D is a 2999cc engine 212hp, 210 LB torque compression ratio is 10.7 to 1

[2jzgte21]

@v67oldstyle they are only similar in that they have 6 cylinders. The EG is an EJ22 with 2 more cylinders. The EZ is built from scratch. Both GREAT motors with outrageous potential! Only problem is the EZ is a wiring nightmare! But once you get it figured out.....well look at the Perrin STi....enough said. Pretty much engine choice is all personal preference, but either way you'll have an unstoppable monster!

[Jessekrs123]

@v67oldstyle dont forget the old 2.7 H6 XT-6s

[v67oldstyle]

@Jessekrs123 And the 2008 tribeca, but its a 3.6

[dmcmahan121]

Not bad but how hard is it to find the H6?

[KmAlbum]

Used to got an 02 Wrx stage 2....raced my friends mid 90's Impreza L with H6 swap...we hit it from a 40mph roll.....his L was SIDE-BY-SIDE with me alllllllllllll the way to 90mph. I only beat him half a car length bc of my shifting. That impreza L with H6 is NO JOKE if you ask me. I was impressed.

[SubieSleeper]

SEXY!!!

I love unique swaps / cars.

[drbaltazar]

best bet is to buy an xt6 just add a turbo and most will be hard pressed to beat the xt6

but you are right it is not a pretty car.solution!paint it monochrome mat blck even the wheel!

[ba66man]

thanx bro. good to know.where can i get one tho?

[needleonthevinyl]

holy negative camber batman

[jada328]

damn it sounds fuckin wicked

[ba66man]

i dont wanna sound like an idiot but what is an h6? n how do i get one lol...i was an acura guy and i just happen to com across a 93 impreza L and fell in love with subies. i ditched acura completly. i need help with info. i hate bein passionate about a car and not being able to find info on them . help

[httrdd]

@ba66man

H6 or Eg33 is from an Subaru Svx. Swap requires wiring harnesses merged, H6 engine drops right in, and readiator placement. I am almost complete with my swap in my 99 Legacy GT.

[GC84ever]

@ba66man

An h6 engine is a 6 piston boxer engine. Similar to a Porsche engine.

Just for your information. An H4 or flat 4 is a 4 piston boxer engine.

[ba66man]

i dont wanna sound like an idiot but is an h6? n how do i get one lol

[AxSxKxONE]

i love my EG33

[akabane1984]

Definitely over 9000. EG33+Impreza=Raw sex. Nothing like it.

[oDd1outGC]

THANKYOU! FINALLY someone understands the ridiculousness of the eg33!

[2jzgte21]

All of you guys that keep saying swap in an ej20 or ej25 are idiots. An Sti swap can cost as much as 8 GRAND and a wrx swap isn't much cheaper. The EG33 can hybrid wire into the stock L or RS wiring (no need for a full ecu/harness swap) and you can pick up a low mileage FULLY ASSEMBLED engine for barely 800 bucks! It takes less time and 1/3 the cost of an sti swap. Check out Rigoli. There's a reason he stepped UP to the EG33 FROM the EJ20. Next time do your research.

[oDd1outGC]

Why not just buy an SVX with a blown trans for $500-$800 then part it out for 1500 and send the remains to the junk yard, for another 150 bucks, after you've pulled what you want out of it?(i.e. engine, bulk harness, exhaust, etc) I don't know about you but I prefer to MAKE money on my swap.

[lazzer408]

How do you 'hybrid wire' a 6 cylinder into a 4 cylinder harness? Use the old EGR solinoid and purge ect wires for the 2 extra injectors and 2 extra coils I assume.

[AWJFunk]

the eg doesn't fit very well.

ez30r however, is a shorter engine. and it makes more power. avcs ftw.

[steveb213]

@2jzgte21 an H6 motor would be fresh. I've got the NA 2.5 L H4 in my legacy, and would really like to do an engine swap

[burrowssj]

@2jzgte21 I guess it depends where you live... BUT an sti swap where i live can be done for the price of an engine an ecu (which if the right version will plug right in to factory wiring) I can pickup a decent sti engine for less than 2000$ USD an that would be a v7+ engine possibly with a vf series turbo... not to say it would be better than the ez30 but 8k? lol for 8k I could forge a block an get a new turbo with link probably put out similar hp thats more usable thats of course IMO

[HuckThis1971]

@2jzgte21

Doin the EG33 swap into a GF8. "No replacement for displacement" for sure. My next one will be a EZ30 or EZ36 with a Mazda Milenia S/charger in my 2001 Forester. Enough with these overstressed 4 bangers!!!!!

[HuckThis1971]

@2jzgte21

I am doing such a swap. Check out my vids!!!! :-)

[CAVEMANUNO]

@2jzgte21 you damn right. and thats exactly why im going to do it. preach the truth to these sos (sack-o-shizz) on here. lmao

[SarraPiyopiyo]

@2jzgte21 If you have to pass emissions inspection, it might be impossible to drop a 3.3 into an Impreza or Legacy chassis. The SVX was rare, and the vast majority were made in 1991-1995, and all of them are OBD-I, if you can find a 1996 or 1997, you can get an OBD-II. You'll need OBD-II to be able to pass emissions.

If you have a 1995 or older chassis, then have at it, and have fun.

As for a WRX swap costing 8 grand... I'm going to build a 2.15 liter stroker for less than that. o.O

[DOHCEJ22E1]

You can use 96 SVX wiring in an OBD1 EG33. Just have to change about 2 or 3 sensors & that's it. Good to go.

[kreyzphatt]

@2jzgte21 dude if you did your research you'd kno you can do a full wrx swap with 2 grand. you can on the cheap turbo a 22.2 block wch is the best block subaru made for 1000

[DOHCEJ22E1]

A full WRX swap isn't 2 grand. It's along the neighborhood of $4k/$5k for a good clean swap w/initial tuning. Even if you turbo a 2.2 block, you would still be down on time compared to an EG33, which just drops right in & bolts right up. You'd just need to figure out the wiring. You're also not getting the potential of the EG33, which is based off of the 2.2 that you have mentioned. This engine is a superior swap compared to an EJ205 swap or EJ22 build.

[subieslider]

dude, bad ass. what have you done to the engine, or is it stock ? i have an eg33 waiting to go into my wagon.... always looking for pointers

[speed284504]

Umm....Where in this vid does it say VW or anything other than H6? And secondly, to the post below mine, you are a newb. Yes you can make 450+hp on an ej, but the USDM motors are very expensive, and there is no replacement for displacement except for more boost.......and eventual engine failure.

[in0neday]

i would have to slightly disagree with you on that speed. If you know anything about the jdm 2.0 sti motors you should know they ARE a replacement for displacement.

[Da1RiSiN1sMoKe]

@in0neday

Only if you want a high revving engine.

JDM STi 2.0 engines lack the low end torque that the 2.5s do, but luckily, I have a quick revving engine with a 4.44 FD tranny; so it will be pretty quick.

[mrmanleedude]

@in0neday that saying is actually still true. it means if you turbo a engin with more displacement you are going to make more power. turbo h4 compaired to turbo h6? what do you think would win? congrats on misunderstanding the expresion.

[burrowssj]

lol.. waste of money?? or maybe u blew ur engine an had this lieing around.either way its retarded lol.ej20 are mint engines an capable of huge HP upto 450hp on high boost.. can get more but not without going to ej25 which is not the standard engine

[in0neday]

wow you dont know as much as you think you do about ej20 motors....but keep typing like you do...fail

[TheScoobyRS]

+459,999,999!!!!!!!!

[clamchowder01]

WOW NICE SOUND!

[unclesonnyonutube]

WR6 is vW.

H6 is an SVX engine.

why does this matter to you if you hate "jap cars"?

why use words like idiot when you dont even know me.

[simplemonkey]

you know, that makes sense.  interesting to call it that.

[simplemonkey]

wtf is a wr6

[MegamanEXEv2]

A combination of WRX and H6, I would say. The car has an SVX EG33 flat six.

[azn0boi04]

nice wide body... u painting it?

steel blue mica? maybe? RB5.

[ManuelDr]

A month later and Im still saying.... "Ho-Ly-Shit"

[wagonL]

nice swap...and this reminds me of when i first got my car started...i have the same swap...it the red impreza with the eg33 aswell....great engine choice...i love mines!

[Bansheeboy11]

I personally know the owner and builde of this car, it was built for time attack, its a EG33, its a much stronger engine than the EZ is. They didnt get to open the car up though due to a faulty rear end spider gears on their 2nd run with the car. its called the Wombat

[subarumonkey]

ez?...no no no ej!

[Bansheeboy11]

no, that engine in that car is the SVX EG33, NOT the newer Tribeca/Outback EZ30. Theres nothing "EJ" about this car. I belive he sold the car a few months back.

[SubaruXT6]

you put a 6 cylinder in a Impreza ?

and Yeah Ho-Ly Shit!

[BiggerStig]

The owner put a flat six from a subaru SVX into it.

[SubaruXT6]

oh yeah. the EG33 230HP 24 Valve DOHC 6 Cylinder

i would have chosen the EZ30 thoe. smaller and lighter & more HP. the ez30 is built to fit in 4 cy spaces

[unclesonnyonutube]

WR6 is a Volkswagen engine from the Bora.

The SVX has a 6 cylinder boxer called the H6.

The H6 is a lot more common of a swap but if the title is what it says it is...then its a Vw engine

[73DrtSprt]

are you a fuckin itiot?

[unclesonnyonutube]

you gotta be pretty fuckin stupid to misspell idiot...

somewhere in the original description or title there was some mention of a WR6 motor...which is now gone. nor do i give a fuck...you are replying to a comment from over 6 months ago.

[ManuelDr]

"Ho-Ly-Shit"
