bigjim5551212 Posted February 21, 2004 Share Posted February 21, 2004 So now I know a bit about Subarus. What Subaru would give the most power and have the best transmission/transer case/ rear differential of the Pre Impreza/Legacy cars. Oh yeah, the least cost. My buddy can buy cars from the Insurance Co, so there is a lot to choose from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old sub freak Posted February 21, 2004 Share Posted February 21, 2004 my vote would be 81-84 4x4w/hi/lo ,there tough, cheap to keep going and just so cool. right!! todd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torxxx Posted February 21, 2004 Share Posted February 21, 2004 yea I'd go with EA81s No timing belts to break. I do know of tons of people with 250,000 + miles on EA82s, but timing belts and oil pumps are the weak spot on them. Just make sure its a 5 speed D/R 4wd what ever way you go. You will be saving yourself work in the future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baccaruda Posted February 21, 2004 Share Posted February 21, 2004 i've had my first EA81 car for almost 2 weeks now and i'm already in love with it. this is after 4 EA82 cars, 3 if you don't count the RX i bought just to part out. the engine bays are less cramped, there's no timing belts to worry about, you can still find parts fairly easy at the JY, and you can modify them for offroad use just as easily as an EA82 and with greater return on the effort on the 2 door hatch. I'm content to wait a while to fix my wagon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
archemitis Posted February 21, 2004 Share Posted February 21, 2004 ea81s are my favorite, after a few ea82 cars. you cant go wrong with a brat or a hatch. but for pure luxury(power steering, power locks, windows, everything) ea82 cars are nice.

torxxx Posted February 21, 2004 Share Posted February 21, 2004 Akira - wanna come up to alaska and do some body work on my car. I got a few cancer spots.... wish I had the time and a shop to fix them like you did. I just hit them with a spray can til that one year (hopefully soon) I get a garage. That reminds me, bigjim5551212 If you buy a BRAT, check for rust. The tail gate is the first place to go isnt it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
archemitis Posted February 21, 2004 Share Posted February 21, 2004 just re read the title. it says THE BEST and TO FIND that hatch that was driven by jackie chan in cannon ball run. turbo 4x dr action! had to be the lightest 4x turbo car ever.
