Thats crazy! I wonder if he's running an ej22?? Next time I see this guy I'm going to flag him down, I only know of two other guys that run lifter subarus in this area sandy and welches need to grow my contacts for wheeling!

[Prwa101]

Well guys!!! I got a brand used altonator along with a new MAF, and man she purrsssssss!!! Runs perfect!! Alls left is....
Button er up, temp gage, oil gage, and now trying to figure out what's wrong with the push button 4x4.... A mouse eat part of the wire near the stick so let's hope I can fix it....
Also cut a little more off the fenders man these tire are big hahah !

More pix up soon,

My Forester and my new 88Gl EJ22!! Booya!! It's looking pretty sick!!

[Prwa101]

Didnt relize how much i had to cut out of the fender so it wouldnt rub anymore, haha. its looking pretty good, i could prolly drive it on the road but im going to finish more of it, like the temp gage, id hate to have to tow my self home haha.

[Prwa101]

Had a little time today after class to try figure out the temp gage... No luck.. I read if you hook the ej temp gage wire to the ea temp gage wire pin 13 right? It'll just read half the normal amount on the ea gage..... It's reading full on above the red and beyond.... I even tryed with with the resistor... Nothing... Any one have any ideas?

[Prwa101]

Yeah!! The temp gage is workin!! I had the wrong temp wire hooked up haha...

[Prwa101]

OH yeah!! when i bought the car it came with a bi mart 84 battery, and it was still under warranty for another 3 years so they pro rated the battery and so i got a brand new one for 45$ instead of 80$ and then talked them into giving me the warranty from today ON instead of for another 3 years!! :headbang::headbang:

Now time to work out the oil pressure gauge!

dang it... i was going to take it for a spin the other day and the rear brake on the driver side is licked up and will hardly turn.... one more thing....:-\

[Prwa101]

Oh my sweet Jesus!...... Just took her for a spin just around the block... I've never felt that much power... The tires could hardly get any tracking because it just wanted to go! It's scary fast! Even with the large tires!

It wa fun untill the rear drum locked up agin... Looks like I need to find sole rear disks at the yard... :/

[turbosubarubrat]

my dad has the rear brakes for the gl-10 minus the disk them selves that we could let go if you dont find anything at the boring you-pull-it, because it going to be a while before i can use them on my brat and one had the protecter bent in so my dad straightened it
