Low budget 15" wheels ~ what do you think of these?
Thank you for your kind advice. Yes, somehow that is what I obtained at "Sur" paintings: the Aluminium Primer and then, an industrial Grade, Black Paint, chemically designed to withstand the requirements of Heavy Machinery, so the paint will be much more chip resistant, than the average paint. Now I need to find the proper time to do such paintings... I'll borrow an air compressor & hardware from a friend. Kind Regards.

Nice Touring Wagon! So, Adelaide roads are equally infested with Tailgaters like Honduran Roads. Usually we give the credit publicly to the Forum Members who helps, by saying their names or usernames. Kind Regards.

1985 GL Wagon blowing blue smoke
If your Subaru still moves on its own and is Driveable, then allow me to contradict your Mechanic, because there is a Chance, small chance, that the culprit of those clouds of smoke, are the Valve seals; because the Early editions of the EA82, had an all-rubber seals that fails like that, while the newer editions, came with valve seals that featured a metallic inner core, much stronger and durable. If the subie still moves and drives, but blowin' such Cloud of Smoke, there is a chance that only will need an engine reseal to be good to go for another decade; those seals must be available at the Subaru Dealer. After all, 1985 is an Early edition, of a good Old school Subaru. Kind Regards.

If you do an Oil Flush using a "Motor Flush" additive, Don't forget to pour it at the place where you'll change the Oil & Filter, just pour it onto the old oil, then start the engine and keep it at idle for around ten minutes, but follow the instructions behind the Bottle; then shut off the engine and immediately, drain all out, change the oil filter. Kind Regards.

Those Plugs are there for Testing purposes. By the way, your Subie has the "Outboard" A/C compressor, that might be a Panasonic one, instead the most usual "inboard" Hitachi one. I'll like to see Photos of the interior ... Your Subie does look Nice. Kind Regards.

Regarding the Euro Style tail lights, also I never liked the asymmetrical look. Your Repairs on the floor pan are looking very Clean and Well Done! Kind Regards.

severe engine vibration when going up long hills
Let them check if the Fuel pressure is Retained after the engine has been shut off. Yes, you're right... Sad but True.

severe engine vibration when going up long hills
Welcome Craig! The oily smell could be somehow a "normal" thing after a reseal, because usually certain amount of Oil gets to the Exhaust system or its covers, and smells as it get burned, so I don't believe this is related to the Engine Shaking + Power lost during Uphills. Many different things could cause that symptoms, but certainly I would suggest you to start by doing a Test of the Fuel Pressure at the injectors, because the culprit could be a failing fuel pump and / or a clogged fuel filter, which are not delivering the appropriate pressure. However, other causes could be a Failing Sparkplug: I've seen few with broken internal resistors, and also a Failing P.C.V. Valve, which could be Sucking oil on certain angles... In my own humble opinion, I would start by Checking those three. Don't forget to share Photos of your Liberty with us, we love Photos here Good Luck! ... Kind Regards.

That is a Nice Brumby, I like it and what you've done to it. May I ask more information of such Bash Plate? Was it an Australian-only Feature? Kind Regards.

Lookin' for a Front Li'l Lift
Since the above part doesn't go all the way to the Back, reaching the parking brake Handle's base, like the GL's center console, I thought that I could simply place that part in front, instead of the one that I have, then a Floor Mat on the naked Shifter's area, leaving the rear part for the Parking brake, Stock; and finally let the mini rubber boot sit over said floor mat... Being without a center console on the Shifter, will lower the placement for the mini Rubber Boot; but I will miss the Wooden part... Maybe I just modify said wooden part to fit a Leather boot in place of the Mini Rubber boot. Something that fits my Black shifter Knob. ► Edited to add the Photo

Lookin' for a Front Li'l Lift
My problem now is with the interior's Aesthetics... The Wooden part I made for the Center Console, doesn't fit anymore. Because the shifter went one inch backwards, the outer Rubber boot is decentered. Also since I welded a half inch longer metal cube, instead the Rubber cube for the Linkage: The already shortened shifter, went down another half inch, making it even Shorter...
