Minnesota Holiday Meet & Greet
Numbchux replied to MorganM's topic in Meet n' Greet. Your USMB Welcome Center
Is that were you're at? If so, this pizza shop is on the complete other side of the cities from us, we could caravan over, it's actually alot easier to find than I thought it would be. well, I'm out of the party, and it looks like we won't be going on a ski trip , but that means I'll probably be there we can work out the details as the time approaches -
Minnesota Holiday Meet & Greet

I'm still not sure, the 1st will be much harder than the 2nd (annual family new years party, but I may be able to get out of it), but we may be leaving town before that, so it's still up in the air, but if I'm there, there will be the usual posse of 5 or 6 people (who may come anyway). -
Wow! great write-up!
-
OH yea! What ever happened with that?

my friend just bought these http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=2494336295&ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:IT for the motors and trannys, from that crappy pic, is it worth restoring one into an EJ__ powered baja bug? or maybe just a street demon. any thoughts? what kind of fabbing needs to be done? since he needs both trannys I'm thinking use a FWD tranny out of the donor subie. Or maybe AWD (ok, one thing at a time). Anyway what do you more experienced transplanters think? cost? I'll stop babbling now, thanks.

crap, it's looking like I'm going to be out of town that day probably leaving new years eve for vancouver, then whislter/blackcomb as for location, we could meet anywhere in the cities, morgan, tony, what do you guys think? -
I'm thinking about this, if I buy HillbillyLes' injured wagon, and sucessfully fix it, I'll still have a good body, good D/R 5-speed drivetrain, and a couple crappy options for motors, but wait, my friend is looking at a 2.0T swap into his 2.2 impreza, hmmmm........ideas

minnesotas got subarus!
Numbchux replied to archemitis's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
We should experiment with that, there has to be a way to make the terrain look BIGGER than it really is, no flat, I bet the best way would be on the ground right at the bottom of the hill hmmm.......$150? that's better, but still the adapter plates are quite spendy, but that makes it much more reasonable, maybe in my next wagon -

mine has the rotten out cat, plus about a foot of pipe before it's rusted off, great sound, but I wouldn't recommend that setup, these cars like backpressure, without it, you got almost no power And archemetis, I've thought about the ej22 swap, and that'd be great, but it'd also be $$$$, which is something I don't have much of, I think the only way that would happen is if my mom's legacy craps out. and even then, the motor would have at least 200k miles. -

27th - 30th would work best for me, 31st and 2nd are possible, and definately NOT the 1st -

Well, here we see the disadvantage to taking video clips with a cheap digital still camera, it was saving the last video while you were coming up, which is a shame, it looked very cool, your front wheel came up pretty high! as for the FWD Auto -> D/R 4WD 5-Speed swap, I don't really have any idea what I'm getting into, you can come learn with me!!! and I want to practically rebuild the motor while I'm at it! -
It would have been fun, elcaminokurt stopped in for a while in his dakota, it was nice to meet him. We had a great time, there a post somewhere about a meet when Austin comes in to town. E-mailed you the rest of the vids, Morgan!

two vids: http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/photos/showphoto.php?photo=3078&sort=1&cat=500&page=1 http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/photos/showphoto.php?photo=3077&sort=1&size=medium&cat=500&page=1

only pic we took, but I'll send a bunch of videos from the on-campus broadband tomorrow. sorry none of your wagon, tony
-
I think it would be cool, subtle, but not unknown
-
Agreed!!! That was much better than we are usually able to find around here! We all had a great time. I left my cable/card reader in Duluth, so the pics and videos (mostly vids!) will come Monday/tuesday when I have time. I don't think we even did any damage, beyond broken fog light on the impreza.
-
I'm coming, with a carload, and probably at least one more (non-subie guys, but they love mud/cars/pizza), we'll be leaving here around 11:15, which should get us over there about noon, maybe a bit earlier. I'll be following Morgan's directions, which sound pretty clear, so I'll see y'all in the morn!
-
I'm in, and maybe a friend or two, here's a map relative the rest of the cities, it's far enough away, I'll probably stay here if we do come, but we could do it last, then you guys could head out.
-
don't quote me on this, but isn't there something on EA81's that needs a little, uh, careful sledge treatment, to allow the suspension to work properly? I don't have the time/patience now, but maybe poke around a bit.

wanna see another WRX powered brat?
Numbchux replied to subaru_styles's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
I wonder how that FMIC looks, I hope it doesn't stick out of the bumper like the last one posted up here, I wasn't a big fan of that :-\ -
I like that idea, though the places I was thinking are more out west, I think you'd enjoy the swamp at my friends place , but anyway, sounds good.

Who wants NA headers, and TWE update
Numbchux replied to WJM's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
well, I need a new one anyway, if it's more cost-effective than haveing a local shop do one custom (I still have to get quotes on that) I'd be in. -
hey sinbin, and welcome! I've yet to see a brat in the minneapolis area, or up here in duluth for that matter. Join MNSubaru.com, we need more old-school representation!!! anyway, this sounds awesome, I won't be in town until Xmas eve, and will probably be leaving for vacation very soon after new years, so my vote would be sometime between then (who'd have guessed). Edit: oops I already said that
