SCOTT, You have the turbo car finished??! :clap: How did it do?? According to the damage report, it must have done well! Nice pictures! Dylan

I would like to go, but I can't make it this time. That is my birthday weekend (24th) and I have plans with my family already... I'll be coming out to subie night soon though! Dylan

Hmm.. maybe I'll do that if nobody has one. I can cut it out on the waterjet at school though, so I thought I'd ask. Thanks! Dylan

So Scott got me to thinking... I have a few weber carbs laying around off of bmw's. I think I'll rebuild one and put it on my ea81. I was wondering if anybody has some sort of CAD file for the adapter plate. Thanks, Dylan

Hey Scott, This week is finals week:eek: But after that is spring break! I wouldn't mind coming out for a morning or two before work and helping out (and returning your spare) and just visiting... Lemme know if you'll be around at all! Dylan

So shop night is on Thursdays now? I just ran into Mosiah at Wal-Mart and he filled me in. Unfortunatly, I'm at work 7 days a week now (on top of going to school) until my blackjack training is finished. Then I will have more time for shop night and subaru's and whatnot since I will be working part time. Can't wait to get back into the subie...

Does anybody have a repair manual with this torque setting listed? '85 DL 1.8L 5sp. Crank pulley bolt. in the rain!! Yippie... thanks

So I found my camera, and there were some pics of shop night before the Walker valley trip: Notice: Larger tire going on (Scott's side) Smaller tire coming off (My side) We had to beat the fenders out a bit so the wheels didn't rub. This picture is cool because you see exactly what the front of my car looked like before the trip.

Happy Birthday Scott We are going to make it over for probably just an hour or so. See you soon!

Hey Scott, are you going to be around tomorrow night?

Don't forget the full sized spare!

Scott's car only made it up the bypass, which was challenging enough. For any of us to try the main trail, it would have been suicide.

This seems like it is getting a little out of hand. I have never been to Walker before this trip, but Scott said it looked different than last time he went. I'm sure with all the rain the trail has eroded and exposed more of the rock face. We watched SEVERAL vehicles that were 100 times more equipped than our subies fail while trying to go up this. Even with a transfer case, there would be no way for a subie to get up that part without a winch. We didn't make the bypass, it was already there. And from what I understand, it was there last time they went too. It was also still very challenging. I had to get pulled up it after several failed attempts, and it took Scott several tries to make it to the top. Even next time we go, I'll still use the bypass. I have no desire to even attempt the other way.

:headbang:I love that car. every time something dents or breaks, it just looks meaner.

What time and meeting place are we meeting at tomorrow?

Just grabbing a bite to eat, and I'll be over soon. (it's only 3pm!). I want to get those tires on and fix reverse. As I found out last time I was at your place, it is an important gear to have...

I agree! Made that mistake once. I plan on comin' over tomorrow morning. The wheels fell through though, so I'm working on getting some. I could work on other stuff tomorrow though:brow:

I'm in. I have some new tires, and have some wheels lined up. I plan on making it out to subaru night the wednesday before the trip and possibly mount them up...? As far as I know, Ky is coming with Brewtus as well.

done!

FIXED. Sorry!

Hopefully he can come. Here's a pic. The owner's name is Ky, the Sammy's name is Brewtus:

The origninal owner of the Red Beast #2 might be able to make it with his samurai, if he can figure out a way to trailer it up here... I'm trying to get him to come so he can see what his old beater can do now!

... I work at 4:45 today, so I can't make it over. I could come over tomorrow morning though, if that would work for you... Lemme know!

Who else is going??
