I did an engine swap in a 05 Outback. Much thanks to this video and you channel btw. My engine and tranny were stuck together as well but did exactly what you showed us in the video and it worked! When I put the new motor in I brushed anti-seize compound on the mating surface on the engine so that if I end up taking that one out they hopefully will not be stuck again.
Thanks very much, I really like your videos. I did have a bit of touble though, concentrating on all the technical info, due to of the volume of the music over your voice. Cheers.
Hey Luc. You may remove small steel plate between motor and transmission(2 bolts10mm(bottom motor)) and apply pray bar to disconnect motor. Point of connection pray bar: 1. trans. body --> 2.clutch
Bro, I had to use a small screw driver to get a 1-2MM crack started, then had to use a three second air hammer burst, to get the dowels to even budge.. your video explaining fuel lines helped a ton, thanks!
Can't wait to see how this beauty turns out! I bought my '15 STI a year ago and plan to have it paid off within the next 6 months. Then i'd love to start a similar project. Nice job Luke!
What an awesome channel. Exactly what I've been looking for. The podcast is great as well, I hope more episodes are made once all the Covid stuff has cleared up!
Legit man!! Glad you’re stoked on it and thanks for the kind words!!! 👊 yea, Jimmy and I need to put out more pods (we actually have a couple we never released, prob time to publish those!). Thanks man!!
You are a legend. Great. Thorough videos and super helpful! Thanks so much! Getting ready to replace my clutch in my 01, sub impreza outback with 2.5i. Any advice for stock/upgrade clutch, should I replace the flywheel? Upgrade? There just isnt much for videos on replacing these clutches
Thanks for the video! Very helpful, I would have really struggled without it. One question though; can the support be pulled from the transmission once the engine is out?
0:59 From the looks of that hood, that's an RS too. You've just added one to my list of known remaining (5 so far, including mine. Keep in mind I'm only counting the CA vehicles, because as a TLEV, only RSs titled in CA can be registered in CA. No buying one that was titled in New Jersey, for example, and registering it as operable in CA). Funny enough; you and are are from the same city. Did you happen to buy (or was it bought be the original owner) at Diablo Subaru like mine was? And I'm currently building mine into an STI v6. I'd be interested in maybe bringing to you to get some work done. Also, how did you get the 720 1998 coupe 5-speeds number? The resource I have says it was 995. Maybe your source is more accurate than mine and I so I can update it?
It is an original RS, nice to find someone else with one. These are super rare, as I suspect you know. Email me directly and maybe we can work something out - cheers!
I’m doing a EJ208 swap, however. I cannot get the pressure plate out. I had to take the connecting bolts while it was separated a bit. In order to get the engine out. Help? 00 Legacy Right hand drive 5spd manual EJ208 TT
Where in California are you located? I’m in the Bay Area. Would you swap my Bugeye with a JDM engine for compensation (money)? Thank you for your time and have a great day.
Hey man do you have an Instagram that I can contact you through? I’m stuck on one plug that I can’t find where it goes. You’re videos literally walked me through my 2017 STI engine build. So helpful!!!
I’m glad I found your channel. I’m gonna start pulling it tomorrow. Do you have a second watch my video on my wrx and maybe hep confirm that it’s a knocking 🙏 I only have the one video on my channel
This video (plus the clutch fork removal) just saved us hours of swearing and head scratching! Thank you 😁
Yup. I came here for the clutch fork removal, too. Great video series.
Thanks 🙏
Thanks. Introduced it to the hammer & an old flat tip before taking the Map gas torch to the dowel pin area. That did the trick, finally!
Thanks so much for posting this series. It makes it much less daunting for a first timer
I swear if you say sucker one more time😂😂😂
lol

Thanks man!!! I’ll try this! 👍👍
Pray bar!?! Ha! If that was a typo it certainly is a appropriate one
Blew my motor on my 04 wrx and your videos are golden
Thank you bro
Thank you buddy!! Cheers!! 🤙
This was precisely the video I needed. Thanks for taking the time to make it! 👍
Glad it helped! 👊

Just the best video series I've seen on removing an engine. Great job and I'm definitely subscribed.
Thank you!!! Means a lot!!!
Just found this series as I'm about to start my first rebuild on a 07sti thanks bro
Glad I could help!
Can't wait to see how this beauty turns out! I bought my '15 STI a year ago and plan to have it paid off within the next 6 months. Then i'd love to start a similar project. Nice job Luke!
Sick man. Great plan. Gotta have the cheap backup project car. Definitely the best way to go! Good luck! 👍👍

Bad ass video I’m about to pull my motor on my 05 sti
Thanks man! Figured it would help someone!!! 😁😁😁
Awesome video! Where did you get the clips and carabiners?
great content. keep it up. looking foward to the engine teardown and rebuild videos.
Thanks man. Hell yes I will. Builds are only getting cooler! Much cooler 😎😎😎
Good work Luke 👍
Thanks man!! 🤙
Thanks for the video! Very helpful, I would have really struggled without it. One question though; can the support be pulled from the transmission once the engine is out?
Good question - yes, it can. I just lower the trans down onto the engine crossmember. Cheers 🥂
@@SubaruONLY Subscriber for life thanks. Can't wait to watch your other videos.
Awesome and thanks man - appreciate you!
Fantastic series!!
Where would you attach the load leveler if you'd removed the intake manifold?

you should have left the dog bone mount ! works better ! thanks luke well done .
Is this music because the engine is "hitched"?
do you have a video on removing intake manifold
Not yet. Be need to soon. On the list for sure.
Great video - subscribed
Thanks! 👊
Take a shot every time he says sucker

Mines stuck as shit been trying for 2 days im bout to try the screw driver and hammer trick.

Awesome, glad to hear. Yep, got a Insta or email me - can find all in the description. Cheers buddy!!! 👊
Awesome! Much love brotha! Sent you an Instagram DM
Best tool for separating the engine from the transmission is a drywall knife, I'll never pull a Subaru engine without one.
Hell yea! 👌
Good advice, thanks or posting.
Thanks buddy. It’s a labor of love for sure!
Great job !!!
did you do the sti swap or you bought it like that?
Bought it.
very nice thank you
Where did you get the clips from?
I’m glad I found your channel. I’m gonna start pulling it tomorrow. Do you have a second watch my video on my wrx and maybe hep confirm that it’s a knocking 🙏 I only have the one video on my channel
Sure, send a link to my email: SubaruOnlyShop@gmail.com

Gotta grease them dwells.
