What you can expect to see when you build one of this engines.
These models are supported by EcuteK factory ECU tuning software with the option of the Race Rom upgrade for added features.
Optional planned ECU tuning includes
Automatic Engine blip on gear change
Flat foot shift

Got a couple early closed deck RS motors in the garage, one is an ex rally Oz recce car motor, the car was heading for the crusher after the rally and the motor was saved by a local mechanic...
You're videos are excellent, and extremely informative. I've recently started watching them, but look forward to gaining insight to everything WRX, and STI...
Keep up the good work. You're enthusiasm and business savvy are infectious.
Maybe I've said it before but Brett, you are one of the most informative Subaru gurus on the internet. Thank you for your fantastic explanations!
Kirk Niese thanks
Great explanation. Now I understand why the head gaskets failed in my '09 Legacy 2.5l before 5 years...
I always enjoy these quick vids. Good explanation/ info!
14mm studs, massive
This EJ22G (I assume it's a "G" series block) can handle over 40psi without cracking at all. Some people even claim that the 2.2 version of this block is sturdier than the 2jz-gte.
Thank you for your concise, informative, easy to follow videos! You guys are awesome!
this gentlemen Bret and John from outfront motorsports are really good at explaining subarus mechanically
Another great video and info.. Thanks again from England.
1:13 you are not telling people the truth. When the head is torque down on the block. The cylinders supported by the head. Honda K engines are open deck blocks and everybody know these are strong engines.
Awesome video. I was curious about what a closed deck was. Now I know.👍
Thank you for your informational video. Was very helpful!
That definitely looks stronger, but what impact does it have on cooling?
it works!
:)
That sounds like an experimental success!
Greco Conduris Probably steals extra 70HP to turn water pump?!?
Take a look at your typical garden hose. Now, turn it on full. See how much water comes out? Yeah, you can poke a LOT of water throw small holes, especially when you are actively pumping the stuff, at pressure.
Subaru should have these come closed from factory. I'd so buy a brand new sti if it did but why buy a new car only to have to do engine work.
Why don’t you guys use IAG blocks? They’re machined perfectly and avoid removing inserts to take the engine apart?
Forgot the EJ22T used on the North American legacy SS from 90-94. Its closed deck, Also might be the only factory motor with oil squirters from Subaru. Note: the Ej22T did NOT come with a factory intercooler.
91-94 not 90
from what i read it's rare to find a wrx with a factory closed deck engine. is that true? i know none of the new ones are closed deck. what's the point of producing a so called rally car with a weak open deck motor. i know you can sleeve it but yeah who has time for that
I like Australian way of fresh up !
Why did MRT not cut a “cooling ring” around the top of the cylinder bores like Subi-Performance?
No one answer this question?
we got no engines Ted,do we,DO WE!?
what does a closed deck cost to do Brett ?
how long should a block like this last for street use only and fbo big turbo e85
wow those studs!!!
theres up to 14mm head studs i think. i want a set but machining alone is like 500 bucks
Do you guys work on customer's cars from the USA and if you do what does shipping typically cost
IAG performance sells their own closed deck in north america. they offer various stud options. many performance oriented shops throughout the US that can handle the machine work and install. Be picky about who tunes the car.
+Zach Colton great bro sounds good thanks for the info
if your still looking into a closed deck also give outfront motorsports a call down in the southern california area. thats where i got mine at 0 issues and we beat it to hell and back
That's better then Australia I'm on the east coast
Thanks for the tip .
Will you recommend a CLOSED DECK MOD on an ej20 . Recently replaced headgasket on my GC8 -EJ20 .
I have forged internals and valves std size in my ej25 with piston head comp. Ratio 9.8-1 what thickness metal head gasket recommend? 7.8,1.1,1.5 mm?
So did this motor get sent out to get a closed deck or is it an aftermarket part??
Isn't the EJ20G the only factory closed deck?
the ej22t in older legacy ss' were also closed deck
Oh, ok, good to know...
Do u have to change the torque sequance on the bolts when u do this
Hello, do you guys sell re-manufactured engines?
too bad you don't have a legit closed deck block EJ. like the EJ22T closed deck from a 91-91 turbo legacy usdm....i have owned 9 of em.
Makes me wonder why Subaru didn’t just do closed decks from factory on all their turbo cars.
Cheapskates . , even just a bit more bracing ... Or 'turbo' gaskets for all
To save costs, and those thin headgasket screws... they just dont care
If im making
u might wanna specifically tell people which block u r using
Roy Hsieh fa20
Now is that using stock sleeves just better supporting them? Or do you do aftermarket sleeves and closed deck?
oem
Just a question, I own a 2002 forester in which I just replaced the clutch. I hear a rattling sound that stops when I sink the clutch pedal. The mechanic says to give it 500 miles for the clutch to break in. Is that normal? It never made a sound before.
Possibly throw out bearing, if it doesn't go away, I'd take it back to him
what kind of power are these aftermarket closed deck blocks typically good for?
700bhp+
Hi Brett, for an ej255 in my 06 wrx, would a set of forged pistons and supporting mods be capable of 350 horsepower or more? If so for how long will it last approximately?
350hp at the engine yes... Recommended to go with E85, and a 11mm or 12mm oil pump!
My 2006 Subaru Liberty radiator hose keep squeezing together.
Ej 207/ej257 closed deck ????? Ej205/ej255 open deck ?????
ej257 is semiclosed
These are only good if you increase oil passages. Close decking with stock oil ports will eventually fail.
This car has now done 260,000 km, the last 110,000 with this engine with occasional track day. Broken a few swaybar links in the dirt, hit a kangaroo and needed a new wiring loop, but the engine has not had a single problem.
@@stephenmyers4873wow great work mate
Any more updates please
Cheers
Subies rock
Rock n blow ...... gaskets 😑

I would never buy a Subaru. It looks like a nightmare of unreliability and maintenance
I thought that for a while, but my cars 20 and it's pretty much the standard amount of work. No different to any old car

@@stephenmyers4873 Fair enough.
Hey guy's are you still operating. Been trying too look you up but web page said closed permanantly..
Real shame if you are. Genuine people with first class service
