  1. Ok so i found this subaru wagon today. 1988 Subaru DL. 88 k. NO rust, zip zero nada. 3 problems. 1 its an auto, 2 its 2wd, 3 there was a small fire in the backseat so that will need replace and the headliner and other interior bits will need cleaned up.

     

    My question is how hard is the 4wd conversion and do you think its worth it.

     

    Hes askin 450 but i thought of offering him 100. Pretty nice looking but it is a dl and non 4wd so its like whats the point ya know.

     

    Any ideas.

     

    Ben

     

    IN this post you say SMALL FIRE 88,000 miles

    http://www.wcperformance.com/subaru_jdm_motors.htm

    the motor alone is worth it at 300 350 for the whole car

     

    PICS would be nice

  2. Ok back to car prices

     

    new cars were not talking about right

     

    used cars is like a good fruit crop

     

    lots of good fruit you sell for less because you have lots to sell

     

     

     

    I live in the PNW lots of good rust free used cars 10,000,000 of them

     

    salt states not that many rust free cars... Infact a rust free should be worth more

     

    My friend is form minnesota his mom&dad would fly oneway over twice a year see the Gkids bla bla bla.

     

     

    drive back in a rust free car and sell it. Pays air fair bla bla bla

     

    In fact car dealers in the salt states buy cars here and have them shipped back and sell'em like hot cakes

  3. he is the seller, he makes the price he wants, don't get bent out of shape because you where turned down or aren't find a "deal"

     

     

    I agree with Scooby 101%

     

    I read your posthttp://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=102357

     

    the guy wants 450 for a running car low miles sounds like a good deal to me.

    You spit in the mans face by offering 20 cents on the dollar

     

    is your money worth more than mine

  4. Bob that one didnt work to well but I think this is the one you where thinking of

    This is what got me thinking about it. I replaced the sending unit, I just hope its not in the wiring...............

     

    Jeff

     

     

    thats the right post

     

    some thing tells me its not your wiring

    but in the meantime did you ground your wire ? grounding it will send the gauge to full

  5. I've been here on this site for about a year and this JDM pops up a lot.

     

    It seems to come up in steering, motors, etc etc :confused:

     

    (adding) used motors, racing motors, body parts, seats .......... in this case google in not my friend

  6. my old 90 loyale that I sold to my neighbor ( I only had it for a short time and all night driving so i never seen it ) well anyways he works at boeing and when he takes this certain right curve on the way to work (freeway offramp) the car smokes like a old steam freight train once in a while NOT ALLWAYS.

     

    So I did some lookin on this site a I found some imfo that some ea82's smoke going around long curves right or left I cant remember.

     

    I also found out subaru redid the PVC system to stop that smoke.

    But I could be wrong.

     

    So apparently it happens once In a while

  7. I've tried that. A couple times. Usually for the exact reason your thinking about. To track down a vibration or a whine. I can tell you that it never worked for me. It seems that the whole dynamics of the drive train changes without the load. So,the noise and vibe's dissapear.

     

    In the end,in my situation,it was a u joint on one occasion and a rear wheel bearing on another. I say don't waste your time doing that.

     

    X2 that never works you need the wait of the viehicle
