Opinion Poll:
A all the way. Looks very original and yet, very one offish, but not overdone.

EA81 engine year?
I can get more this evening but this is what I have.... EA81 - 672700, '81 2wd 5-speed wagon EA82T - 962603, believe its from a '85 RX sedan, d/r 5-speed EA82T - 784006, this is possibly the original motor for my '89 RX, 4EAT

ahhhhhhhhh! they wrecked it !!!!!
king, that looks like it would be easy to fix. Just needs to get onto a frame rack and have that corner (after everything is taken off of it) pulled out a bit I bet and weld on a couple tabs to the corner of the quarter panel and have that pulled out as well. It can be fixed, but the cost is probably gonna kill you.....

Calling All Td04 People!
Steve, I got all the pics you'd want. I used a Samco y-pipe from a WRX and cut it to make it work, I also put in a piece of exhaust tubing to make it fit better. I also used a Samco interooler-> throttle body piece as well, with an adapter from a GM fuel filler neck for the reduction but I don't know what it came off of. Used the stock TB piece to go from the reducer to the TB. Here's the links to the pics http://community.webshots.com/photo/302403464/2381973490067339125eJPOCR http://community.webshots.com/photo/302403464/2832625290067339125qbmuhz

Water Pump Gasket Question
best bet would be the silicone IMO. I don't know much about the copper spray though....
-
Woohoo PARTS ARE HERE!
so where did you get those cool headgaskets from?
-
A new Wedge...
2wd struts will work, the springs are a lot lower. I put a set into a GL turbowagon when I did the 5-lug conversion and it sat about 2" lower in the front
-
Tranny Question
doing the conversion to a manual is actually pretty simple. The hardest part about swapping pedal clusters is removing the old one and removing the steering column.

Parking lights won't turn on on my friends wagon
actually I have a decent set of all season tires on black steelies... these were on my RX when I got it from the yard. I also might have some other wheel/tires as well.
-
Parking lights won't turn on on my friends wagon
sounds good! Let me know if you need any big parts like hatches and stuff. I also have a few engines and trannys coming out of my ears for these as well... As far as your problem, do you have the front parking lights too or none at all? If its none at all, then you might want to check into the headlight switch which I have like 3 of currently...
-
Parking lights won't turn on on my friends wagon
wait, you're in FTC? I'm only an hour away and have many many many parts! I might even be able to come down for a day and help you out possibly but my Bronco = crappy mileage so it wouldn't be until my RX runs again...
-

Denver meet n greet Monday Eve June 5th?

Cam Case o-rings.... are these them? EA82
yeah I'm currently going through it with my engine I just pulled out. Decided not to buy a new oilpump and went with a reseal and look what happens.....
-
EA82 rear sway bar mounts
if it doesn't have the mounts on the trailing arms, you're gonna need to swpa trailing arms or figure out a way to connect the mounts to the trailing arms you currently have.

Is my turbo toast?
this makes me feel much better. If anything, I did source another TD04 in Colorado for $120 with only 1,000 miles on it.....
-
Cam Case o-rings.... are these them? EA82
and since I'm also running a slightly modded EA82T, not just "any o-ring" will work because its either replace a $5 part now or another engine.

Springs Rockers Lobes OH MY! HELP!!!
I got two sets of gen 1 turbo heads in good condition except for the small cracks between the valves.

EA81 4 speed pops out of 1st upon Decelleration.
well there should be a plate over where the shift rods are, which is also where the detents are located. There also might be a couple plugs ont he side of the transmission that when removed, will be followed by a spring and the detent ball. Usually, if the dentent ball gets stuck in a certain spot, it'll wear down one side making it oblong instead of round. I'll look at my spare d/r 4-speed tomorrow to see if I can find a way to replace them easily.

sounds like a worn detent on the shift rod inside the tranny. Seen it happen on quite a few manual trannys that I rebuilt, not just Subarus.

Is my turbo toast?
Thanks Jerry! Hopefully tomorrow I ca do that and see what all I can get out of it. Maybe I can tear it apart but that would scare me.....
