TheLoyale

Mine was removed sometime in the cars life from the other owner(s). I don't understand how you could override that button? Cause mine will shift out of park with out a key. How could someone have rigged it to work that way, GD? I don't see anything tampered with under that cover, hmmmm? -Tom

Nice bit of info, -Tom

Making home brew are we? -Tom

Ooo me likie! I knew I've seen those somewhere else, hmm. don't understand why SOA would offer another style thats not all that diffrent..? Do you have any other '85s? maybe it was an '85 thing, dunno. I think thats the first time I've seen the color before, I know of the other color thats like that, which is a more dull/dim sandy/tanish yellow gold lol. Hope you get'er ideling good, you have a Harvester? pics? post one in the "Show off" thread -Tom

I like the color Bill, are those mirrors diffrent the ones on a Loyale? Look diffrent (Maybe its the angle) Its 4WD? -Tom

Well Saturday I replaced the header/cat pipe section with a genuine replacement. The old one kept cracking in diffrent places and I figure I better fix it before winter. SUBARU really added alot of heatsheilds to their new pipes, this one (Just like the genuine mid-pipe) is coverd in heatsheilds all ther way down and surround the entire pipe/cat. Costs for genine: $315 for new pipe section $15 for 4 new studs. $10 for 4 new nuts. $6 for 2 new gaskets $0 for new dounut (I had one around) $346.86 Total. plus $50.96 for a CarQuest O2 sensor. Cost of installing beautifuly in 2 hours, Priceless.. Lol -Tom

Hmm very nice plans. Yes thats the only thing about changing color (Door jams, ect) are hard to paint. Goood luck and hope to hear more! -Tom

Clean EA81! Whats this going into? -Tom

A wins a win (Even if your the only one in that class) Nice job, does look nice! -Tom

The funny thing is, its Dodge, with Mitsu parts (Sometime rebadge models) and the Rampage, just like the erly Omni used a VW clutch/Trans (What crap) Can find a pressure plate or the push rod for an '81 Omni anywhere. -Tom

OMG duh! Geez, strike that I said that. well I've had a feaver and a head cold for the last few days (Not in my right mind) Scott, I would just stick with the subie diff and see how you like it (You can always change it out at latter date) -Tom

Yea I'd use the XT tail lights, its fit the style better. LMAO! What is that Looks like some Eddie from the Griswalds would wear Hehe. btw, so your gonna make a working gate aswell?

I do believe the '90 Troopers still had a full axle (Not independent) I know I've seen Troopers up till '93 that still used the full axle. Also, whats the diffrence between a front or rear solid axle? Besides the pumkin being at an off set on some. So why couldn't you use a rear axle in front, and just modify the housing for whats needed? Just my thoughts -Tom

Huh, thats a cool idea. I never thought about using a XT series for something like that. Why not, its still a coupe. I would like to see this done right though. -Tom

Yeas, post a picture please! I need to know what everyones talking about! I have to know, I Must know, I need to know, I would like to know, know what I mean? Hahahahaa! -Tom

Yeah, looks good. Can't tell it was crap haha! Funny how when you remove everything, it doesn't resemble a EA82. -Tom

I would've loved to see what the dealer lot looked like in '90 with a row of EA82s, Legacys, XTs, ect.. Must've looks cool!

Hahaha! Wasn't she the lady from the movie (Harold and Maud) ? Funny commercial. We should some how save all these commercials so they arn't lost. -Tom

Ohhoho! Now you're talking! Floods are great, I only have a 4" plug-into the cig outlet, it had Flood or Spot. really shoots far! almost like something the cops have hehe. I got it from AT&T in the dumpster as I work at many buildings. My 500 Comets only came with the cheeper looking covers But I did buy mine at wally world. Make sure you get a picture of the new lights when you get them

Sounds like fun! a Metro huh, still running that 3-cyl suzuki engine? I would hope not hehe.

Brian, No Subaru badge in the front! How dare you sir, this must be a crime somewhere? Looks pretty cool though! rllywgn, Where can I get those 500 covers? Hella doesn't offer them on their website.? -Tom

+1, its no fun to have a crushed fuel tank on a trail. Any updates Scott? -Tom

Thats the type of mesh I have on mine. Looks good! -Tom

Ben, yes the coil on plus wires are expensive! The Toyota FJ has them now days, I guess its good since you don't need to worrie on getting any water in the cap/rotor stalling the engine. This FJ is supposed to go thru 3ft of water (It'll do it too) As for what I've done, I used some spry wax on my fenders today, oh and changed my seafoamed oil. Thats about it... lol -Tom
