Hi all! I've got a 2006 Forester XT with a 8.4:1 CR EJ255. This engine has 280,000 plus miles on it and just threw the old P0011 as I drove it home after purchasing. Thankfully I just bought it for the chassis and have a freshly rebuilt long block to drop in, but the the AVCS failing has moved...

To start off, I'm very very new to the whole subaru world, as I have owned Toyotas and Hondas since I started driving, and know close to everything about them, so this whole boxer engine thing is a huge learning curve. So please, correct me if I am wrong on anything! I recently bought a 2004...

Hey guys, fairly new member here and a first-time poster. So please excuse my lack of knowledge. So I have a 2010 Forester 2.5 XT and unfortunately, my engine has decided to completely give out on me. My wife and I were on the way back from a beach trip when my oil light started flashing, I...

Not much documentation out there but would this be plug and play or would i have to swap harness and ECU have a built EJ205 that would have gone into a WRX but looking like it'll be saved for the XT. Otherwise i guess just building a hybrid with the 255 and already built 205 would be the easier...

I'd like to completely swap a 2009-14 WRX engine and drivetrain into my 2011 NA 5MT SH Forester. I'd like to ask if there is anyone who can help me fill in the gaps in my research and knowledge. My brother is a body guy with auction access, and since WRX drivers basically spent half their time...

Hey all, I own a 5spd 2011 forester with the FB25 engine and 142k miles which I bought at 99k. Recently I have been having major issues with it. My engine would shut off whenever I slowed down and hit below 1k rpm, and would oiften struggle to start (no codes thrown besides an occasional...

Hello hello, As the title states (surprisingly) I’m having some issues with my 06 forester xt. It had ringland failure and was swapped out with an 06 sti block, 06 wrx heads and retained the stock intake manifold. Car is completely stock minus a cold air intake. So currently it’s got a rough...

Hi guys, looking for some clarification here as I have scoured online and found mixed messages. Where is the recommended/ideal vacuum line to use with Subaru’s upper engine cleaner spray? Specifically for an EJ255 (2009 SH XT). Many have recommended the line off the bypass valve next to the...
