Just came home from the garage and this is what ive done today:
and the whole car as it is for now, next step is fixing my radius rods and some small cutting in the back.
-
And to help topicstarter dont try to fit 27 inch tyres(195r-15) on opel frontera rims they just dont fit whitout big fendercutting.
-
Ever see a junked up honda with wheels sticking out like, six miles, and notice that the camber was off?? (meaning the tops of the tires pointed towards the middle of the car) THAT is because they have absurdly offset rims, and havent fixed their suspension and steering geometry.
And you thought geometry class wasnt gonna impact the real world! :-p
Ive tried out 3 diffrent offsets on my subaru (original, pugs and opel frontera) and they all didnt change my camber. The offset has nothing to do with yor suspension setup.
-
Im absolute sure bout the name cant find them on internet myself too.
Just tried out the new spacer on my radius rod think i need more than the spacer so i just gonna cut and weld my spare ones, any ideas how to should i try to get them adjustable??? or how much more can i put om them?
-
The tires are bought in sweden dont know were to find them elsewere and the company who sells themhas no pic or info more than the price.
-
tires are Technic Tracker-MT 94Q , and im soon to be starting to make my 2 inch liftkit instead of cutting my fenders more.
-
Thanks for your opinions guys think it will be major fender cutting season on my brat soon becouse i dont mind cutting and make some new fender flares. Really like the look on it whitout lift blocks just need to fix my spare rods and put them on now.
-
Thanks for the good comments about my paint, what do you guys think should i go for more fendertrimming or build myself liftblocks ( probably not legal here in sweden so i have to take of my lift every year for inspection time)???????
-
Heres a pic of my roof lights they are noname brand and cheap lights up as good as my 3Xhella rallyex 100 watt. The no names is 4x55 watt and the size is just perfect for the roll bar.
-
Heres pictures of my new tire setup on redrilled Opel frontera rims, the car is just on cranked suspension front and trimmed fenders. I guess i have to start to build my 2 inch liftkit soon, but first im just gonna fit new longer caster rods. Enjoy pic of the swedish rusty brat=)

Hi where do you live in sweden?
My leone turbo also needs a new paint and maybe am I going for the same paintscheme.
I found mine on blocket for 1500 skr and a few weeks later my sister bought a GLX coupe turbo for the same amount of money.
You can still find cheap EA82T in sweden.
I live in the south of sweden a place called Älmhult. Nice to see someone from sweden here.

Here is a little update on the wheel section of my subba. Ive just bought myself a set of mt tyres Technic 195R-15 and my rims are almost finished redrilling.
-
Ill take the cylinder with me to my work going to drill out the nipple and then put new threads in and a bigger nipple, the brake line threads are just fine but thanks for the answers.
-
A little update in the xtra lights department, i traded my hellas for a set of opel frontera 6X15 six hole rims for my future lift and bigger wheels. Since the dark season in sweden is dark i needed som xtra lights so what to do!, after a little shopping tour these babys found there way up on the small roll cage.

Daaaaamn bobbed tailed brats is awesome thinking of boobing my brat after the yearly inspection and hoping they wont notice it next year.
-
Oh sorry subaru brat -88 and yes its drumbrakes rear think its the big drums as well. bouhgt new brake shoes and they were the ones with the biggest price tag.
-
Need to replace my rear brake cylinder and a new one here in sweden costs 785 Swedish crowns = 78 dollars and thats way too much. Is there any other car which have a brake cylinder that could fit with a little work on it?.
-
And my grey/white/black kamouflage one is a non hydralic lifter -88.
-
85 and up are hydro. 83 and 84 turbo are hydro also.
GD
Not for brats in sweden had a -90 brat it had NOT hydraulic lifters, but i guess yore not going to look for a brat in sweden
-
Welcome these guys here is sure crazy in a all good way, i sure enjoy reading/hanging around on this forum.
-
Ive been real lazy and my lift kit is not fabricated yet. The only thing ive done so far is some cutting in the front under the plastic bumper, heres a picture (bad mobile phone pic) with my car in my friends back yard. We were both surprised how the subaru could manage his back yard.
-
Sweet ride EA81 cars ROCKS!
-
Thanx and yes its strong not like the weak plastic one.
