  1. yeah group shot is in the works i hope. my 5 lined up somewhere.....and yours and micks and dennis"

  2. Thanks SubieMech85. He came over to pick out a hitch, and the legacy hitch not even close to fit a EA82 and the civix hitch nogo. Dennis worked in the sub 20 degree tempts and we got the timing set to 10 on the rescued gl. Also had fun driving it and we exchanged a few test drives. I think he likes ny 92ss. Think the rescued wagon likes the brat donated organ. Today, I ordered 300 bucks in parts to put the Brat back together. Distri, clutch kit, rear main oil filters for the svx the brat the legacy and brat/gl and etc. Thanks subiemech85
  3. no more for me now spring, maybe Mick, all your Brats are faster than my Brat is now. clutchless. who did the exhaust? I need to get my Brat a custom exhaust so it doesn't hang so low with this lift
  4. "recently bought this motor after having 2 bad motors from" well, hate to ruin your day, but all those 2.5 are Bad.....when you need a 4th motor, go with a 2.2. I so rude today
  5. just add more length to both original wires. like 3 foot more each side for side lights and 3 foot more for bumper signals...route wiring in vice - verca location from factory, install driving or foglights in bumper, and hook up lights.
  6. befriend the local bodyshop painter; drop off random 6 packs of beer every so often with from your name on them first. then after a few weeks of leaving 6 packs, go introduce yourself and see how that goes.
  7. that is sweet. I watched the track video, yeah it moves. way to go.
  8. i put my extra center caps on yesterday. I read posts from when GoldieOldie had it. I am 4th owner. He was 3rd owner, where he found it in Maine on Craigslist. The person he got it from took it to Maine from new Mexico. So, it is still really solid. GoldieOldie said the rockers are new, and reinforced, yay. I think, with warm weather in spring, I will finish up the body work, putting it a 2-tone kinda like McBrat posted here. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=94177&page=4 It will make it look pretty nice, Mick I am going to recreate the same that you had, thanks for the idea.
  9. did you hook one negative terminal of the jumpers just to vehicle ground and not to post of battery? I assume you did not do this.
  10. http://www.subaru-svx.net/forum/showthread.php?t=39790&highlight=jumpstart i swear, some people just have no business working on cars.....
  11. something is wrong. Jumpstarting a car should not blow a fuse, assuming you hooked the cables up correctly..
  12. keep it a driver as a backup, and will replace my other wagon as the dog hauler when i have to take my dogs. too nice to not do that.
  13. K&N and soobs dont mix to well, they tend to foul the MAF and other systems its the oil in them that caused the problems. this will open a can of worms debate, but i am the correct one on this.

  15. it had a failed distributor, the top bushing was worn on it and was not getting spark correctly due to the wear. I put in my BRAT distributor, and brought it home, 241 miles one way. Since the clutch is toast on my Brat currently, it was a good time to use its parts to save another from the crusher.
  16. Took these pics this am of the 83 Gl Wagon I rescued in Illinois, so you know what it is. http://s405.photobucket.com/albums/pp132/bheinen74/rescued%2083%20wagon/
  17. forgot to add, but it was missing the gas door, and missing the gas cap. i found a rubber glove in my 92 that was from the por-15 time and used that lol. I will be contacting the owner and i bet someone stole the gas out of it but will confirm that or not. okay i am officially going to go off to bed to die for 7 hours then i will be up and having coffee.
  18. i think, long term that one of my EA81 cars, will get a ej22t tranplant. my 92 ss is getting mighty rusty that would make a good donor, but yet the 92 is a good runner, but with rustout. fighting a 40 mph headwind in a ea81 has been not so pleasant and it happens a lot n iowa. not good for interstate drives. the ej22t doesnt even reckognize wind.
  19. i always got mine from wrecked cars in the yard. sorry though i think a new bulb number would be excellent. i think i am a expert at replacement of these by now...it took a while tho. If you go and get some from the junkyard, look for lower mileage cars, they are less likely to be burned out.
  20. i will get pics to let you guys decide if its worthy of a lift. i think for now, this will replace my Brat until i get the clutch on Brat replaced. Without the Brat clutch useable, I have no dog hauler really. I have 2 dogs, and one is safe to haul in the white car, the other is destructive manners and she will ruin anything but a brat. No way in hell the dogs even get near my svx. i has subies in the drive. pics soon. still cold and icy. my knee is getting better from the come-along breakin and the hook wacking my knee cap. Anyone wanna come down to smallsville for a Brat clutch jobby spotter extra hand.? and to decide what to do with the new Beast
  21. its a gl so yep 4wd high and low. 3rd gear synchro is kinda shaky but i got accustomed to it quickly. i have to arrange to get the title from the owner that left it and arranged allowed me to go save this pretty solid wagon. I am happy with it. will have to to some maintenance stuff for cooling so it seems. ran in the middle of gauge on way back. has some exhaust noise, more so than any of my others. it does have some rust but not deathly by any means. We should figure out what i need to do for it. I am going to drive it close to home for a while and see. the carb on this one seems better than the one on my Brat, so i may swap but who knows. maybe its just my Brat is CA emissioned.....so who knows
