Whos been keeping up with the results? I was listening to WRC radio all day today!

Good luck finding one in the States. We won't get the GTR until summer and that will be the first "Skyline" Nissan ever imports here.

I'm fighting a similar battle with my coupe right now. Tons of leaky window seals, trunk seals, cracked windshield, etc. I have this project moth-balled right now, but these methods wont work for a DD. One idea in the mean time is to go to a hardware store and pick up a bucket of those salts that absorb water. Just leave it in your car and hope for the best.

Not true. If he can find an EA81T fuel tank, it will have those baffles.

My first guess would be a leaky trunk seal or rear window seal.

Is this the same lug pattern as Porsche?

Interested in selling any pieces off that brat that are necessary to put an EA81 in our '75 wagon?

Awesome! Congratulations, that many miles is quite a feat, and the fact that you stuck with your subaru for that entire time is inspiring.

Has anyone sat down with an '81 brat and an earlier gen 1 to verify any differences? Who around here has an '81?

God I hate those exhausts...HATE HATE HATE HATE!!!! Tail lights too!!! BURNNNN DAMN YOU!!!

Can't wait to hear how fast it is!

Holy cow, that would be terrifying!

Have you tried using the search function? :cool:

Don't forget guys, he offered me first crack at the bumper in Subaruguru's thread.

How hard is it to just drop an EA81 in there?

Tell me more please!

I printed off a copy of your manual on 3/28/2007 and have reached as far as harvesting parts off a 5 speed car with a black ECU. Please hurry with those updates! Actually, any insight you can provide would be great. At this point my guide is a year old and probably could be amended.

Am I ever!

If you're going to lift it, sell us other old gen'ers your nice factory parts, like stock bumpers, etc.

No, obviously Russ did that. You must have very low standards for tires then. I daily drove and raced RE92s and along with every other WRX owner I've talked to, they were one of the first items to be changed. The difference between 92s and any performance tire is night and day. EVEN IN THE WET. Straight garbage man.

Love it! More please!

Modded Legacy plate, or a bespoke EA82 piece? Looks sick either way!

My brother has a nice old CA born wagon that needs to be moble at some point. We have the original 1400(?) that came in it, toasted I think, and a JDM imported 1400. Should we put this back in or go with an EA71, or maybe even make it a Yenko by stuffing a big block, big valve EA81 in it with a Weber. What do you guys think? What are the advantages to keeping it stock, or going to newer parts? Also, how difficult is it to put the entire EA81 front suspension under the front of one of these? Will a later R160 Subaru LSD fit in the rear?

I've got one of those, hehe! The '76 grill and headlight trim looks way better in my opinion. Subaruguru, I think we have twins seperated at birth in Japan, reunited by the efforts of the USMB!!
