What color should I paint my 78?
My vote is for the pearl white used on the early legacys. Looks bitchen!

Yeah, its the Kamei spoiler. I saw one on ebay a year and a half ago and this one. So two that I know of for sure making the avalibility just about nill. But I used to have a web site that had this spoiler listed, but I can't find it. Anyone have this link? I'll try to find it.

XT6 turbo...can it be done?
Some guy started prepping one for a supercharger. Got custom pistons made as well as a custom intake manifold, but I don't know if he ever finished it.

I got is from Moosens. I've been waiting on an old stubborn man at a dealship in Conneticut to cave into Paul's persuasion for quite a while now! The car runs, just not very well. I still have to set the timing and idle. I tightened one of the banjo bolts on the oil pump and the big leak stopped, so I'm happy!

4WD sedans only in 84?
Just so everyone knows for the record, all USDM EA81T cars had 3 speed 4WD automatics.

Good god!
Think about the front vent on that hood. Hot air comes out of it right? What is right behind it? The hood scoop. Hot air cooling a hot intercooler? Dumb a poop. Also, the new front bumper might let more air in, but that air won't do anything because there are no ducts pointing to the brakes, etc. Subaru doesn't just arbitrairaly style a car, some thought goes into aero (XT anyone?) so whats the point in changing it with something that hurts the styling and aero package from the factory?

Good god!
Sounds good to me!

Found: 84 EA81 Turbo wagon (4x4)
I'm not interested in buying it (I've got one already) but I know of some parts I could use off it! Maybe all us EA81T guys should pool our funds and get it for parts!
-
THIS is why I needed a throttle cable!!!
Yes, but oil pours out of the resealed pump and the timing is WAAAAAY off, but yes, it starts and runs!

body kits for older cars?
Your best and only bet is to find one of these: http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/80s/accessories/80-airdam.jpg I've got one on the way. One of two I've ever heard of for the EA81 body style in three years. I know there is a gen 1 air dam floating around some where on the board...

Ed, you've got 6 inch versions? Let me see those suckers!

Removing the hatch
That sucks! Some people just have no respect for other's property! Good thing the Jeepers couldn't get to my car! I noticed that they had tried to by their tire tracks!
-
Good god!
Phatbrat, you forgot the third type of person... My type! The guy who has a lifted hatch and "Racer" wagon! Also, not to brag, but at the autocrosses I go to, none of the ricers can touch me in the WRX. You are right however about the jealousy. If I were offered that WRX, I would take it. Then trade the body kit for stock body work and maybe put the SPT body add ons onto the car. I would also not mount the gauges directly to the dash, maybe a subtle pod where the clock is? Sell the wheels for Volk racing 17"s and that type of stuff. Rice to me is a blanket statement. Most modified Hondas I see are "riced out". Most subes aren't. All go, no show for me please! But if it is light and makes the car faster as well as looking good then thats a bonus! (Carbon fiber hoods should be painted on the top, bare underneath!) Sorry for the rant! This topic strikes a nerve!
