Hey All. Haven't been on here in a while. (2 Years). I sold my old wagons and ended up in an 05 STI. Still driving it but am looking at an old XT6 to replace the two that I used to have. Figured I come back and say hi and get active again. Thanks, John

I think there's either a vacuum leak or an emulson tube thats clogged in the carb. I'm making my way through the threads to learn about carb tuning now. I can't complain about the car. Rust free, 175K, 4wd works, good tires and still gets 28mpg. I only payed $200.

I've got an 87 EA82 Wagon and I'm having a few issues. My Idle is a bit high. (1400 rpm) and The rig starts perfectly cold. after a trip to town and a warmup, the car needs to crank for about 10-15 seconds to finally start. I'm going to verify my timing tonight as occasionaly it diesels upon shutoff. After timing, I'm going to look for vacuum leaks. Any opinions on where to go from there?

I didn't know rust belt Subies were that bad. I should send my 84 back as a donation.

Question, you don't happen to have a parts list from your transmission swap do you, I'm doing one myself and wanted to double check myself. Also, What happened to your EA82? If you were getting rid of it I would be interested.

I'm with Jerry, I would love one. I always wanted an EJ22 with a set of Weber IDF's.

Miles, Thanks for the reminder about the flywheel and clutch. I shouldn't have to worry about the 4wd vacuum solenoid as I'm going to the manual dual range. I just won't have the 4wd lights on the dash. about the CV's, will have an issue with the turbo front hub spline count versus the non turbo trans splines.

Your A/F readings will not be accurate without a Wideband O2 Sensor your meter will always bounce around like a metronome. If it was me I'd wait and install a dedicated Wideband and weld a bung into the downpipe just aft of the stock sensor and use both O2's.

The car is an 86 so I'm not too sure I'm going to look at it tonight. I think its push button.

I'm looking at buying an EA82 turbo wagon bith a bad auto transmission. I'm hoping to swap to a D/R 5 speed and so far have a donor JY vehicle and wanted to see i'f I've missed anything. I'm looking at Trans with crossmember Driveline Console Front CV axles (need replacement) Pedal cluster and Clutch cable I was wondering if I need anything else and if I even need the driveline. Also, With the D/R swap what considerations will I need to keep in mind to retain Cruise Control?

I just did the same thing last month! Works amazing! Great job.

I its the same spoiler that was on the wagon, I have a NOS one for sale along with a Water pump, clutch, bike rack and a wagon rear cover. All NOS.

If you end up replacing the clutch, I'll sell you my NOS clutch kit.
