goobaroo

hells yeah i could use one of them, i just put some seafoam in to clean that crap out, i dont really want to have to do it that often. quality block plates sounds like a great idea!

i was thinking about doing something similar on my 84 wagon. i wanted to remove all the carpet and put hurculiner roll-on bedliner on the floors. i think it would be lighter then all the carpet especially since mines soaking wet most of the time. I got a leak in the windshield seal. it would protect against rust, and make it easier to clean out the car after some serious offroad abuse. I've also heard it dampens road noise. any comments, info or ideas are welcome.

thanks guys, yeah i've been reading all the posts on the conversions and pugs, but i wasnt ready to do a complete switch. looks like i'll have to though

does anybody make a decent off road tire for a 13 rim or even make them in that size at all?

cool, i'll look into it, thanks man, clutch is relatively new, but i wouldnt lighten it too much, i dont want to totally screw up the engine

does anyone sell lightened flywheels or do i have to lighten it myself?

should i go with a 2in?

ahhhhh....i see, thanks, i just reasoned that it was less mass for the engine to waste its energy moving, therefore that energy could be better applied to say the wheels...

yeah i already have plans to do the wires, coil, and disty from a 2wd model (subiemech artical stuff) and im getting the new exhaust done next week, going with 2.25 cat back, possibly hollowing out the cat, dunno yet. also changing the thermostat to a 175 deg to keep things cool. i was just wondering about the pulley cuz i wasnt sure how heavy the stock was, and i might want a single pulley conversion soon. im not dishing out the cash for the carb cuz i like the gas milage i get now and i dont really want to lose that. thanks guys, great advice.

yeah it would be nice to lose some of that weight, even better if u can run a single belt, which i might do cuz my AC comp is shot, i think i'll just rip it out. unorthodox racing claims u can gain 2.7 hp for every pound lost! it might just be marketing, but who knows, it'll deff feel better.

yeah thats what i figured, but i was just wondering if there was some universal bolt pattern or pulley size for some other subaru engine that might be close enough to the ea81, but thanks anyway!

does anybody know if any of the lightened pulleys made by unorthadox racing for newer subarus will fit the ea81 engine? if not where can i get one that will?
