no I have it it needs a tire. do you come to birmingham sometimes?

it's an old sub.. works for me.

snow cat must look up this "snow cat" (we must not have enough snow to have any here)

yes I have an XT to pay attention too. lots of crap to do... we need to pick a place in the middle of the country dude, and take pics of our sexy black XTs...

MORE!! oh and opinions on that hood vent I have set out there? I know the panels I painted still need work. but she is almost one color with no major creases.. I am going to try some more expensive paint now that I have a little more practice. and I need to decide which tire size to use cause I need some before I try and make the dragon. old pics are in my photo link I just wanted to share my lovely Winona with you all.

I wish I could still find that black wax I used to use on my Scort.... man it worked nicely. autozone used to carry it. sorry bastard... messin with your scuby. makes me sad.

that's genious... I think I'm gonna black out that megaphone the PO put on Winona!

+1 I think most turbo cars sound best with none. (also do something about that nasty precat)

I need to get a welder and learn to make cool stuff with it! can't wait to see your pics! (oh and my xt has gutter under the trim too.. I had no clue till this post! thanks!)

never mind just too rusty. and the third eye is gone...... I really should have looked closer before I got all excited Frame rot FTL.

sweet I was almost right! (and wow gary good search!)

doesn't a turbo coolant line come from the manifold? I believe that is the major difference. I believe it's a deal where you need to tap the NA manifold for the turbo fitting I'll see If I can find it.

check for fuel past the filter again. re check the fuel regualtor. try pushing the throttle pedal while you try to crank it.

um SS do you need a good turbo?? I'd be happy to mail you this one I have for shipping (fits in a flat rate box) Spare?

I'll have to see this next year. my Dad gets cut up on the 20th and I have to keep the buisness afloat for the following ten days or so.

got pics?

never heard of restore. I have seen 1 case where simply adding the lucas oil stabilizer completely stopped a valve stem seal leak. it was cool.

what do you plan to do about the extra license plate holder? otherwise, very cool!

I keep having to rethink things because all of my experience is with other cars. when I had my Escort ZX2 the handling was better with ebay stuff. I was also thinking about the whole rear being higher on you car. which would lend to more front grip because of the wieght being over the front tires and more rear slip because of less weight over the rear tires. sounds pretty good. I could use some more hiding of the spring in the front. (looks ghastly) the back looks fine as is.

I was told that the upgrade kit was basically new orings that were right for the new refrigerant, and an adapter for the fill port. I also understand that all the old needs to be pulled out VIA vacuum, but I have no idea how this was done. and you probably need new o-rings anyway

truth is so much funnier than fiction.....

IHI made a lot of the turbos in cheaper 80s/90s turbo cars. From the early 80s 1.6liter Escort turbo, on up till the 90s mazda 323 turbos. (I think the newer WRXs and such use Mitsubishi units, ironic huh?) I happen to have a 323 turbo thats shot an 83? escort IHI that's shot and a really good condition Ea82T turbo. all of them are IHI and none of them look alike at all. (and I bought the 323 turbo for kicks for 45 bucks at a you pull with the manifold attached sold the manifold for 100 bucks shipped! )

yeah sorry I had just gotten out of bed when I wrote the thing about rudeness. sorry. as for the original post, I was totally in a "stream of consciousness moment". Thanks for the link. I will try and be more/less odd if it helps things. lol. (the thing I think that really got confusing in the post was the uncle and the great-uncle.) I passed by the brat today to day refresh my memory. not near as pretty as I remember. I think I will go get pics tomorrow. I may not can offer him anything just yet. I have a car I'm upside down in and no longer interested in. if I can sell it.. I will offer him 300 and if he says no maybe 5. anybody need a chrysler conquest TSI that needs a rebuilt motor?

why did you edit your post to be more rude?? seems like we have quite few people on here that just like being rude to be rude. this isn't a freaking grammar bowl. it's a Subaru forum..

think I just intake gaskets and a t-stat. and I checked my oil today and it's clean! (nah on the beer.... you'll help me too!) BFH FTW!
