Cranky starters
Whitty - July 13th, 2021 at 12:19 PM

Hi folks, good to see people slowly getting back to this forum. A long time ago I bought a Subaru starter and adapter plate from a bloke in Brendale (Brisbane) who from memory was Paul who made Cranky kits. Does anyone know if Paul is still around and making the adaptors? Just setting up an engine stand with an old VW starter and was thinking a Subaru one like I have on my beetle would be more efficient.

What sort of motor have you got?

Why not get a hi- torque starter from IMI or Wosp?

1600tp motor, just want a small suby starter instead of a big hi torque jobby.

Paul no longer does the Subaru starters. Bit of a shame, nice bit of gear.
