If the rust is flaking, then you're in trouble. Use a wire wheel and finish it with a rattle can!

I hate that new grill. Plus that is the future of subaru's sporty cars and it has a damn automatic. Yuck. -
Well my old man finally finished painting his peg board. Its almost a shame to cover it all back up with tools, but thats what its there for. Let me know what you think!

Is it easy to throw the 4WD gear from a factory 4WD gen 1 wagon on to a 2WD wagon? Found an awesome 2WD body but it was not 4WD.

It would be prudent to have the whole front wiring harness because they are different from turbo to normally asperated.

Still no wheels huh? Maybe I can help with that. -
Mudrat79 has a 3 inch. Ask him about it.

That falls into the 80-84 model range, so yes, it will work. Although if you plan on offroading it, then I would pu the 1800 engine in. Also that can't be the original engine because no USDM Gen 2 brats had 1600 to the best of my knowledge.

HAHAHA, sucks for you guys! The dealer I go to doesn't always have what I need, but they always have the part number. And I know most of the guys who work there and they're pretty cool. They even knew about the WCSS6 and were telling people about it when I walked in. Chaplins is awesome, Ed and Wayne especially.

I didn't say I was offended, I was just giving a word of caution. You never know who you might be offending. -

Hey, not that I care if you guys talk about it, in fact I make fun of my self all the time because I was the normal kid in my special ed class (Procrastination and A.D.D. will put you there), but just be aware that there may be people on the board that have been in special ed. Now that I think about it, there were some messed up kids in my class in high school! -
Did you happen to snap any pics?

The rotors DO fit on the stock spindles and the calipers mount on the backing plates.

Anyone got pics of lights mounted on their EA81s? I'm gonna put My Hella 500s on soon and I'd like to see where others placed their lights.

rear pads...any good ones?
carfreak85 replied to PoorManzImpreza's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
I did a search and didn't seem to come up with a dealer that sold subaru pads. Where do you guys get them? I'm planning on doing brakes over winter break and I'd like to upgrade them. -
Sorry Corky.

I finally figured out the coolant loss problem on my wagon! I figureed it was near the turbo because we had just replaced a coolant hose that fed the turbo and that it was evaporating before I could see where the leak was, but it turns out that it was on the other side of the engine bay. I parked the car and heard a coolant hiss and traced it back to the heater hose going into the car. I pushed the hose on as far as I could and tightened it up and so far it appears that the temperature is now ROCK SOLID! I'm stoked! However I now have an intermitant tapping HLA, a bit of brake squeal and an exhaust that needs to be split at the slip joint and reclocked. I'll nip the squeal in the bud when I put the rear disc conversion on since I plan on replacing all pads at teh same time. Would changing the oil take care of the HLA? Wish me luck in perfecting this car!
