what gaskets will i need?
well it all depends on what you plan on doing to the heads. If you end up reusing the old heads if they're not FUBAR, then I'd get the head gaskets and new intake valve seals. If you plan on rebuilding a set of "new" heads for it, then you probably want to get the whole shibang. When I rebuilt my 1600 heads, I used new headgaskets and I installed new intake valve seals. I haven't fired it up yet but I hope it runs like a dream:D

Things to look for when a car sat sat for over a year...
as for brakes locking up after sitting for awhile, my 76 Triumph does this. All I have to do is take the parking brake off and hook a chain up to it and gently tug on it with another car. If that doesn't work, put a breaker bar and the right socket for the lugnuts and jack the car up and bounce on it tillit breaks it loose. I've had to do both of these methods before:D

gl - gl-10 question
you also have to remember that the GL's had all of the same options for the GL-10 but the GL-10's came with those options automatically. Hondasucks has an 87 turbowagon but its a GL, not a GL-10.

Where should I put my new spoiler?
you should get three and mount one on top of another and then mount it to the back of you car....then you'll be makin fun of the little ricers:D I took a wing off of a gen 2 (84 wagon) and put it on top of my 79 wagon and it actually looks pretty swwet while having that (I have a spoiler the right size) look:brow:
-
What 4WD station wagon for ~$3,500,00?
don't get a Loyale, they're the bottom of the line basically with hardly any options. Just get a late 80's turbowagon or an RX and build the s*** outta it:D
-
Anyone here done a 4x100 conversion?

EA81 loosing power
I can't quite remember but I think there's 2 fuel filters on it. One is located underneath the passenger side near the tank and the other is located on the firewall. I know JonOfScio's 88 hatchback has 2 but I'm not sure on the older ones.....I never replaced the filters in my 83 but I know there was one on the firewall for sure:D

Starting problems- PLEASE HELP!
Caboobaroo replied to physicusman's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXyep, sounds like a fuel starvation problem. Start by checking your fuel systen to see if you're getting fuel to the injectors. If you are, then prceed to checking to see if you have spark. If both of those are in fine shape, time to pull the TB covers off and see if your timing is screwed up. If its not and it all looks fine.......well......time to get a gen 1 wagon:brow:

HP's Annual Christmas tree run

1978 conversion to electronic ignition???
not too long ago, I changed my point disty to an electronic disty. I think its from a 2wd 82 wagon or something like that. I know that it is an EA81 2wd disty. It wasn't very hard, all I did was pull the old disty out, take the ballast resistor off and the transistor box thingy on top of the coil and drop the new disty in and hook the two wires to the coil and BAM, it ran fine:headbang:

Repairing a stripped Spark Plug hole
I had to heli coil my sparkplug hole before. It wasn't that bad. I went to Car Quest and got the right kit for it and in like 30 minutes if that, it was done. Just make sure not to get any metal shavings down the hole or you might be sorry:banghead:
