  2. 1400 suspention question? im just wondering what is an good replacement for the rear shocks for a 1400? i went down to the shock shop and they had problems trying to find anything close that would fit kinda need help for this. my 1 is an 74 fwd 1400 that im fixin up
  3. haha i hate to say this but i think i was offed that truck aye. but it the guy wanted $400 for it i never had an look at it but he told me it was full of rust and was real beat up ay. thats like only 40mins away aye
  4. yea i would say that it was sponced by them aye. that was an very good hill climb car haha i like that flat 12 motor. when that motor was sold it was fitted into that race boat they kept working on it and made it reliable i think also wasnt subaru going to build another f1 engine and car? i heard they were going to try again and see if they have better suscess with it. heard about that about 3 years ago in an motoring artical
  5. i no an guy that brought a very rare homologated RX2 leone. came from factory like that. it was good till the engine packed up. it went very well round dunedin area that has lots of steepish hills and in winter can be very slipery and snowy at times in winter. when it packet up he got an replacement engine and that wuldnt work rite coz the computer was different and the clutch went and orded the new one and clutch was different from normal rx2 and the cvs were much bigger2. i think they mite had been xt6 1s? but if that car is still round im going to see if i can pick it up for parts
  6. would it mater if the leone back axle is an 4wd 1 or not? i do all have parts from an 84 front wheel drive 1 to just got to find where they are.
  7. cool i would like to get the older shape 1 as well as the later shape brumby too
  8. so do ya think that i can grab 1 out off the rear axel from an 81 leone?

  11. yea my coupe has 1600 in it. had it since the 80s or earlyer. it was 1 of the cars that got replacement engine put in it by subaru for no cost to the orignal owner. my yellow sedan still has 1400 engine in it
  12. cool ive got parts from my old fwd leone i stripped down aye. my 1400 is fitted with EA71 motor its got the right addapter bell housing. but i wana go with 5spd gearbox in it
  13. haha yea get them all converted to right hand drive they are expensive like ment to be about $NZ 70,000
  14. so nothing really has to alted to fit it in? im also going to use an ea71 motor in it also. i had heard of an guy that fitted 1 in and it was an tight fit as well as he had 2 modify something?
  15. looks like they are going to release the tribeca here in nz now. i wonder if they will come from the states or wheather they would be assembled and imported from somewhere else?
