Phizinza Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 I'm in the mood to look at pictures and videos of Subarus in Mud.

Phizinza Posted March 2, 2008 Author Share Posted March 2, 2008 River side offroading... We were seeing how far into the river we could drive... And on the back roads around my place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skip Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Phiz, well done lad, you have this "photo shoot" stuff down-- way down Most excellent shots!! And thanks for the consideration to you and Brian in reference to keeping the size small enough to keep it on my monitor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gyoas759 Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 This is the best I can contribute. It was mud... covered in snow. So it made an interesting mix and was a good way to play with my new video editing software. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, sometimes i forget not everyone has a 22" flat panel. You don't like the super close up of a botched primer job? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phizinza Posted March 3, 2008 Author Share Posted March 3, 2008 Cheers mate. Good to get some photos on here of Tassie. I'd love to make a trip down there next time I have a rego'd 4wd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSteel Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 give us a yell if you ever do come down, lots of tracks around to explore been plenty of rain happening lately, so lots of mud, and unfortunately lots of water (poor brumby needs a snorkel ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phizinza Posted March 3, 2008 Author Share Posted March 3, 2008 Should take my Brothers locked up 4runner with the 35" Micky T's... Just have to get him to have a good amount of time off work.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chazmataz Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 Do you know what kind of snorkle your mate is running on his 88 wagon? is it home made or is it one that normally fits a different rig moded to fit the sooby? it looks like a safari snorkle from ARB. thanks, Chaz I'm in the mood to look at pictures and videos of Subarus in Mud.

Phizinza Posted March 5, 2008 Author Share Posted March 5, 2008 It is home made.. We installed an adapter to the carb to turn it 90degrees and into a 60mm hose. Then put a Legacy air box in and and drilled a hole through the fender and plumbed it in to the air box. Using 2" round fence post we cut angles (no pipe bender at that time, got one now) and welded it together. Welded some tabs on and bolted it to the A pillar. He then had to cover every connection, plug lead, disty etc in silicone to stop the water stalling the engine. But in the end worked quite well.

Gloyale Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Here is a few videos. Not the best, but just a mild day out with the family. It's the downhill run, so it's super easy. Here is some other sections of the same trail. And before anyone says anything, I know that my GL Turbo has bad rod knock. Waiting for this motor to croak before the new one goes in.

Dynapar Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Here are some pictures of Fishbiker15's 1987 GL Hatch. Pretty sure it is way muddier than anything posted yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Beast I Drive Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 I also found out I need a snorkel that day and I think I cracked a head Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phizinza Posted March 7, 2008 Author Share Posted March 7, 2008 Couple more of my old Brumby. I don't so much miss the old girl, but I miss those old days when it was amazing finding out what she'd do. I don't think I'll ever get the same feeling again. Because, then, I really had no clue about offroading. Now I've driven a locked up solid axle toyota, a Nissan Patrol SWB (which is very very very capable as stock), welded diff subie, etc. I've also watched so many offroad videos I just get a general idea of what can do what. Ok sorry for that paragraph, now to the pictures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

subynut Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 We arizonans don't see that kina mud, but we do get the kind that makes a nice thin film on the paint that only comes off with elbow greese. And of course, Dust! WEEEE!! {cough cough} Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
