Hi Sam, you've obviously done plenty of research already. Best of luck to you, I've looked around and only found one or two places that make cams for the 2.5L, which were located in the states. Unfortunately I haven't seen anything for the EJ22 at all.

I have to ask though, if your reason for not converting is lack of funds, why are you wanting to go spending money on cams? By the time you buy the cams and have them installed you've got almost a quater of the cost of a cheap conversion... Just something to consider!

I can install the required gear myself if it isn't to troubling. I have a few mechanic mates who are willing to help gain any performance out of my car. So the only cost would be cam and associated materials. I was hoping your reply would be like a message from the Subaru god's. If anyone knows a place in melbourne that would do an awd and a turbo conversion cheap then hit me up. Cheers.
I noticed you have the whiteline sway bars fitted to your ride. I was thinking about getting a whiteline sway bar set. But was unsure about how much that would improve a factory ride height car with 17's fitted?

there is a very good reason practically everyone advises against spending time & money on an NA ej22.. (because it's a waste)

as such, i dare say that's the reason no-one makes performance cams for those engines..



remove the resonator, it will provide much better drivability on ur ej22, and it'll cost u all of $2.50 and a lazy 2hrs.

i personally think doing or spending anymore, apart from maybe a full exhaust if ur desperate, is pointless.

spend the money on suspension, make ur car handle like a go-kart, and ull be guarenteed more for ur $$..

just like tak in initial d lol

just passing time

GOT A PROBLEM PM ME !

nothing wrong with a FWD sam, enjoy the car matey...

stop flaming noobs you tossers

good option would be similar to what soup is doing and pick up a DOHC ej25 from a gen2 rx. good motor that makes stacks more power and torque than the ej22.

Alexxx, I noticed you have a time of 15.603 or so at the bottom of your post. I assume that is what your rx ran in a qtr mile? And although a wagon that is just over 1.1 sec from what my car runs in almost stock form. Would the 2.5lt conveversion be viable on a small budget?

The outlay vs the end result there's nothing that comes close.
