Wow, whats up with that suspension? I know you wanted to rally it but, DAMN! Looks ready to 4X4!

I'm sorry to hear that! Especially since you had a MSD and not an Accel go bad. I carry a stock coil in my tool box for the day this happens to me.

You might strip the threads in the head, but other than that, you're not going to rip the head off or anything.

Hmmm, JDM parts eh? How about an EA81 headlight washer system, EA81 height adjustable seat tracks in light brown, any of these wheels (or any oversize aftermarket wheel for that matter: Thanks for scavenging for us!

Someone near by! You'll find that there are a few of us who hang in the North end. You can get a lift from PK Davis and bullbar from Mudrat79. Send me an PM and we can talk more about meeting with the North End gang and such.

Richie, I've got an aftermarket tach if you're interested.

Yup, the EA81T cars only have a green set of connectors.

The only problem I have with my motor is all the old coolant hoses going bad one after another.

The EA82 turbo might make a little more power, but mainly its more efficient. Did you change the fuel filter?

5x100 bolt on hubs for EA81s and camber plates again! These would be on the tipity top of my list.

That little sensor is the ambiant temp sensor and yes, you need it for the ECU. The purge canister wouldn't affect your running and you might as well leave it in if anything.

This just crossed my mind, check your spark plug wires and make sure they are going to the correct cylinders.

Check for vacuum leaks and make sure the fuel pump connector is plugged in all the way. Other than that, I'm stumped. Do you have a FSM or Turbo FSM supplement?

EA81 performance parts. Lightweight body panels, camber plates, brake upgrade kits, racing seat adapters, anything and everything for EA81s!

I know what you mean! We went from like 5 forums a few years ago and have now more than double that!

This is why: "Any topic discussing Subaru models older than 1979 (1981 for Brat), or vehicle restoration techiques for any model or year Subaru."

I had an engine that was imported and was claimed to be goo turn out to be junk. Be aware that some of these engines will probably be bad.

If they're not too heavy and prove to be durable, I might be interested in a set for an upcoming project.

So are they $400 per set or per individual wheel?

I'm sick of pulling and hammering on my axles, where do I get one of these?

What about fiberglass hoods? Anyone know about those?

PSSST! I have a little secret... The timing marks are on the crank pully for the turbo cars!

Horay! Another EA81T owner, welcome to the club! Regarding your question about the rev limiter, there isn't one. I am suprised that your shift light and buzzer seem to be coming on early as mine don't activate until the redline at 5,500rpm. The ECU light is supposed to come on when you start the car and if there aren't any problems with the system it is supposed to shut off again. I would replace your filter, plugs, wires, cap and rotor and then see if there is a difference. If these little tune up items haven't been replaced for a while you will notice a difference. As for the dashboard, good luck. I don't think anyone has sucsessfully converted a Digital Dash to the conventional type yet. If you still want to try changing it, I have an analog turbo gauge cluster if you'd be interested and I can try to scan the pin outs for the analog and digial dashes so you can get them to work together. On a side note, LETS SEE SOME PICS!

I got the steering wheel off of ebay, but you can get a similar one off of Celica All-tracs and maybe Saab 900s. I might be selling it however, ever since I saw one on ebay that fits the character of the car much better.

When I drove my Mercedes, I always wanted a manual. Now that my subaru has a manual, there are times I wish I had an auto. However, I'd still want a manual over an automatic any day. Plus you can put the LSD in the back of the auto, if it doesn't have one.
