  1. The more I read the more confused I get. Anyone with a newer car, is wrong to keep it stock, but if you have an older your wrong to not keep it stock. WTF? I have been keeping up with the FF1 project thread. Everyone is like keep it real, keep it stock, I don't like the wheels bla bla bla. You guys must think I've destroyed my 79 DL cause I painted it all crazy and what not. So someone PLEASE enlighten me on these thought processes. If anything it makes more sense to me the other way around. Mod the old and keep the newer stock.
  2. It matches the electric blue windows:banana: I had it up to 85 today too. Man that thing is like a rocket....and electric rocket...with low batteries.
  3. Just got the side stripes on the DL. She's almost done. Just gotta paint or color the roof inside the car, adn put 2 side moldings on (but I only have one:( And some other pics
  4. That looks great. Now put the spare tire in there for crash protection:grin:
  5. got it in and fired her up tonite Thanks again Todd, it looks great. Maybe one day I'll get the whole car done. No run no drips no errors. I had to buy brass pite fittings 1/8 in. I also had to buy a corner peice to keep the botton line away from the pully (which is in the wrong place:lol:)
  6. Thanks to Subaru3 for hooking me up with the new radiator. It's now ready to put in, after I had to rig up some trans lines receivers. QUESTION?? Should I prime the radiator through the ATF lines before I hook back up?
  7. I would like the new one. It looks like the one I sent pics of right?? I could have my sister pick it up locally from ya. She lives in Dallas, I'm assuming you do too? She could even mail it to me, cause she was gonna ship me some Simpson's stuff she got at the Quick E Mart (7-11)
  8. I called, and told him it may be the same as the above Brats, even though mine is a DL. I even sent him these pics, but he hasn't gotten back to me yet.
  9. ANYWHERE Autozone, Advance, NAPA, KOI, Ky Motors, and every link google gave me. Some show that they have it, and even have the right picture, but they never acutally can get it.
  10. So my radiator has a leak at the top. I want a new one, but can't find one ANYWHERE. Does any other Subie radiators fit a 79 DL 1.6liter Auto 3-speed Front Wheel Drive?I don't really wanna a patched one, I wanna new one
  11. Almost cookout time. Is this the cookout where everyone puts their meat up on your grill:lol:
  12. Clogged exhaust? Blowing chuncks don't sound good, and the throwing of the chuncks, how far? It's gotta be building pressure to blow chuncks. (No goofy jokes about puking, or that chuncks is a dog, it wouldn't be prudent.)
  13. so how many bolts did you brake taking off the fenders? Lookin pretty good. what kinda camera you using?
  14. Thank you, yes, I do need to make a trip to the hardware store:lol: The one where I have the washers backwards, the bolt would go through the lock washer, so I put it second. It only powers the fan, but really I would not have known it made a difference. I'll take all the advice I can get.
  15. It's done, not pretty, but done:lol: OK, so I could use another bolt, and not the swingset bolt, gotta find one though.
  16. I have a glowing switching, problem is I can't make em glow:headbang: Nice gen one, wanna trade me? lol I wish I could find a Brat, but in this part of the country, I'm lucky I got what I got.
  17. Thanks everyone:grin: Here is the original exhaust thread, page 2 for pics. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=52335&page=2
  18. Thanks, I understand now. I can't find an Idler pully, so I bought a random pully and bolt and washers to fab my own. I will post pics when the carnage is done.
  19. I then don't see how the belt driven fan will work? I wouldn't need what you have if I go without the outer belt and used electric fan. I don't need what you have in other words. Or I just confused:confused: Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the help, but I'm gonna just use the idle pully and make slots on the bracket where it bolts on, so I can adjust tension that way.
  20. ok, see diagram now. Looks like it's missing the outer belt. It would appear my crank pulley is different, for mine has two grooves for belts, the inner, which looks like your photo, and an outer one isn't pictured at all.
  21. On my car the alternator is powered by the inner belt, along with the water pump. The outer belt, powers only the A/C and belt driven fan. . Are we talking about the same belt? BTW. I can't see diagram:confused:
