So, Brian can a standard DIN sized CD player fit in the lower half of the slanted console? In your first picture it looks like the lower panel is cut for a head unit, but I figured I would ask anyway.

Alright, I'm just glad I saved this for this type of moment. Behold the glory! Since only EA82 cars were avalible with rear swaybars, this is the only chart you need. Obviously the 4WD XT6 is the largest (Bigger than Edrach's) but it will create a more playful rear end. I've decided to go with the XT6 bar and all thats left to do is get it mounted and then source the Whiteline 24mm front bar, muhahahahaha!

I know that somebody has been running a 34/34, or maybe a 38/38 on their EA series car. I did a search for "weber, 34" and this is what I came up with: http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/search.php?searchid=124462

And this was done with what ECU? Congrats! Oh, and it sounds like we just missed you at that GC8 meet in Seattle last weekend.

One more vote for a lean mixture.

I'm sure that I could convince at least three or more subes to join the convoy.

I have a pretty nice set of four in white that I'm looking to get rid of.

Thats what I have for my car. When I get a little closer to installing my head unit, I'll snap a few pics. Tex, your welcome to stop by and hold it up to your dash if you need some reference.

The non-turbo pistons (EA81) are 8.7:1, and the turbo ones are 7.7:1. The turbo pistons would have a larger dish.

Physically they will fit in you cabin, but you will need custom brackets to mount them.

For those who haven't seen the difference between the stock EA81 front speakers here they are. The passenger's side is 4x6" and the driver's side is a 3x5.5". Contrary to popular opinion, I found the driver's side much easier to remove. The speaker in the center is the one that is replacing the factory units. It is a 10cm Pioneer 80W peak, 20W RMS speaker. Obviously this new speaker will not bolt in to the factory locations. Time for custom brackets! Thes are the brackets I made for the passenger's side. Brackets installed: Speaker installed in the factory location: I should have the driver's side fabbed up tomorrow night.

Could you poke around your struts and see if you can figure out the brand, etc? It would be nice to put some stiffer springs and struts on my wagon!

That is correct. The standard EA81 4WD spring is 134lb/in while the turbo springs are 146lb/in as well as being shorter. The struts are the same regardless of asperation.

EA81 and EA82 also refer to the chassis as well.

Well, I've already got the passenger side fabbed up. It might sound stubborn, but I'm gonna get the driver's side out and it'll be sweet! Anyone who has done this please help me!

Anyone? Im making custom mounts and need this sucker out!

I already did a search but came up blank. I need advice on removing my driver's side front speaker from my dash. This is on an EA81. I got the fuse box off as well as the bottom screw that holds the speaker in but I can't seem to find anything else that holds the speaker in place. Any help you can give would be life saving! I can get pics if necessary.

Thats exactly what happened, except that subaru designed the WHOLE car and saab just tacked on a new front bumper and leather seats.

Those are the same lugnuts that are used on the old shadow mag rims. I think...

Wow, that looks great, but mine is going into an EA81 so it'll look a bit different. Anyone have pics of theirs installed?

Pics of the lugnuts?

I was helping my friend install a stereo in his car and while we were picking up his installation kit I asked if they had a kit for my car. Lo and behold, they had ONE left! I bought it on the spot and now I just need a spare radio box to play around with. Here are pics:

Did you unbolt the contro arm from the engine crossmember? If you didn't, try pulling on the knuckle assembly while compressing the tranny side. Then when that falls off, use a hammer to knock the threaded end of the axle out. This method always works for me.

Now thats a cool find. I love having rare factory parts on my car.

I'm not too worried about knocking them off. This is a street sube first and foremost, and an offroad toy second. Besides, with the new pugs, there is a lot of clearence. Take a look:
