Performance mods
Subaru_Mechanic replied to Subaru_Mechanic's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
it matters to me... when i pull up to a stop light in my 400 horsepower 87 subaru GL wagon:lol: . and have the fellow STI rev at me... i would want him to hear AND feel the 400 horses. there IS a bigger sound with more HP... theres no point in having HP if you can hear it (in my opinion). even if its my ea82... its gotta sound mean (Not Like A Ricer:-\ , like subaru muscle:headbang: ) alot of you guys doubt the engines:( only if you coulda drove my brat... it would bring open your eyes:lol: -

(87 lifted wagon) what do you recomend or what have you done? im making my own intake and buying a new fuel system. im thinkin about keepin it FI. But Weber/Redline have some mean race carbs. im not much of a turbo guy i like raw performance and a deep roar:headbang: are there other really good mods? even if it helps just a little bit... cams, coils, yada yada. simple stuff for now. Until i do the rebuild:grin:

got my new 1980 Brat
Subaru_Mechanic replied to danrenfroe2016's topic in Historic Subaru Forum: 50's thru 70's
well you can take a pair of the cool blue and black wrx seats or any other seats and mount the stock brat rails to the new seats. if you are good you can bolt em on. if you want it fast then weld/fab. up some adapters... pretty simple. i almost did it brfoe i got kicked out, only thing is, i was using 91 grand am bucket seats. -
