In response to the demand to extend our Phenolic Spacer lineup to include some of the older subaru models, we now have created intake manifold thermal spacers for Impreza 93-01 1.8L/2.2L, Impreza 99+ 2.5 N/A 'Phase 2', Legacy 97-99 'Phase 1', Legacy 00-04 'Phase 2'. Thermal spacers lift the intake manifold off the super heated engine to lessen the transfer of heat. Both the intake manifold and engine block are aluminum so the high heat transfers very quickly....well these spacers stop that. The cooler the intake charge the more HP and TQ your engine will make. In addition to cooling your intake charge, these will also give you a larger intake plenum similar to that of a throttle body spacer. These all come in our Triple Thick 8mm thickness for maximum heat protection. Why not go that extra step to get yourself past the competition? Applications: All 93-99 1.8L/2.2L Impreza engines All 99+ 2.5 N/A 'Phase 2' Impreza engines All 98 2.5 N/A 'Phase 1' Impreza engines All 97-99 Legacy Phase 1 2.5 All 00-04 Legacy Phase 2 2.5 Price: 79.99 Link to website: http://www.grimmspeed.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=23&osCsid=39bo6h9pbjes0jjoeqkkg4gll0 Like our other thermal spacers we suggest putting oem subaru gaskets on top and bottom of each spacer to allow proper sealing. You can buy these on our online store as well for much cheaper than the dealership. In the next few weeks we will also be releasing the 3rd design which is for the 98 2.5 N/A 'Phase 1' engines. 93-99 1.8L and 2.2L 99+ 2.5 N/A Thanks! Justin www.grimmspeed.com
I forgot to mention on the 1st post that these also fit: Legacy 97-99 "Phase 1" Legacy 00-04 "Phase 2" OP updated.
Im gonna be doing some work the car this weekend and next week so if you still need a 99+ 2.5 n/a... ill pick them up from ya
i cant imagine they would be any different, they look exactly the same. Just thinking you might have some more market over on legacycentral.org
the guys at sl-i.net are really digging these...we are running a group buy over there right now so you could go get in that if you wanted
'93-6/'98 1.8 & 2.2 imprezas and '89-7/'98 2.2 legacies share the same intake mani gasket part number: 14035AA290 so yea, it'll work that said, I'm more than interested. martin, pretty sure justin's imp doesn't have a motor right now
yea, I think pretty much any of us would be more than happy to sacrifice out car for some performance testing at no cost :biggrin:
yeah we can do that. all long as the tester do some write ups with pics on the clubs/forums they are on then we can definitely do it.
justin, just an FYI, i dont know if i just got the wrong stuff or something, but the gaskets i got when i picked up the wrx ones weren't even close to correct, just a heads up, i dont know if we just grabbed from the wrong tote or something tho.
Justin, you should change the title on the phase I 1.8 and 2.2 ones from "Impreza 93-99 1.8L/2.2L" to "89-99 EJ18/22", or something to that effect, since they will work on legacy 2.2s aswell.
