  3. Awesome ordered the air filter and it's on it's way. Radiator i got is 2x as thick as the original one so i'm going to take off the fan from the motor and get an electric one.
  4. Is that anywhere neer Index? I'm new around here and got a new subaru (new to me) and i wanna test her out! If it's close maybe i can roll up?
  5. In search for a 86 celica adapter! awesome thanks alot. yeah the car is awesome except for what i'm assuming is turbo lag? and it overheats but i bought a new radiator and thermostat yesterday. someone poured straight coolant into the thing. The person i bought it from said it stat for awhile so they put that it so it wouldn't freeze.
  6. Yes i know your all here to help and i am so thankful for everyones advice. I've been trying to find websites and doing research it just seams pretty hard. Just by reading more threads and reading peoples posts I have have Tons of information and web links! Everyone at USMB is awesome i'm glad i found ya'll! :banana: :headbang:
  7. Heres a few pictures of it. And here is who i bought it from.... hehe I made a funny!
  8. Thanks. Yeah i work at an auto auction and i'm the lead vehicle inspector here. I've been looking for a cheap car to work on and everytime i bid on something everyone ends up outbidding me. Damn Dealers! I picked it up for 850 bucks with 175k on it. new tires everything completely stock except the stereo is missing. Needs a paint job soon but the spoiler and everything is SUPER clean. Only problem is a tear in the drivers seat along the left side. Drove it home yesterday and it started overheating so now I have work to do! I want to find out how everyone is putting K&N airfilters on these things!
  9. Cool thanks alot for all the information you have all provided. Any places good for OEM parts? I think i'll just leave it as is for now and listen to ya'll. Are blow-off valves bad as opposed to a bypass? I want it to sound cool... my first turbo and all... even though you probably can't hear it because it's so small! hehe Oh yeah and any idea on where to get cheap used rims? maybe some bigger ones. I hear you can only have them custom made?
  10. Hello everyone, I am new to the boards and just bought my first subaru. It's a 1986 subaru RX 4wd 1.8l turbo. It is completely stock and runs awesome with full power and everything. Could anyone help me find any places to get aftermarket parts? I've been looking for blow-off valve, full intake, exhaust and a wastegate. I want to chip it if that is even possible? Any help would be greatly appreciated since i know next to nothing about foreign cars! Thanks in advance.
