Cant say much except listen...WOW! New inspiration

oh, leave the covers off the timing belts. That way if you break one, you can change it off the side of the road in 20 min and keep going
She is going to be my snow and mud mobber, I have heard mud clump can dislodge the belts >.< anyone have experiance with that? Because im tired of taking those P.O.S plastic covers off
-
Thx guys, Im sure it had abit of oil pressure to get the lifters from tapping. And i can turn the oil pulley, however there are 2 spots where it slightly clicks or catches. The timing belts didnt look horrific, just figured they would last asleast 1k miles to test the engine out >.< Guess i should throw a set of new belts and see what that pump is doing. And as far as scoring, 3/4 cylinder walls have crosshatch, 1 is slightly scored, but has no depth. Im just a backyard teenage mechanic, trial and error I suppose.

So I have a problem on my hands, I picked up a nice 86 wagon d/r, $150. But the motor had been overheated to the point of melting timing belt covers, it had also blown a headgasket. I began to tear the engine down to replace the headgaskets and discovered a rocker arm had dislodged itself from place(lifter was super loose). I skeptically assembled the engine back together with fresh headgaskets and newer lifter, Got her timed up with the old belts and then she ran like a beast!...with no oil pressure. Said hell with it im driving you, hoping for a faulty guage. After a 20 min drive the driver side t-belt snapped, would oil pump seizure cause the belt to break, or the re-tensioning of old belts? First time I have done any engine work to that extent. Basically just want some opionions please=)

Well, if u want to have zero fenders yes. But it looks like the rust has taken care of most that
-
oh defiantly. but there's no 4EAT for loyal.
unless i use 1 from a turbo and its Electronic Shift. i say Fuq that after the trouble i had with my 91 legacy.
Thats why you get a 5 spd d/r=)

I hope that isnt your wife in the front seat... jk, nice ride and sweet dog.
-
Heres what were dealing with, Where have others mounted their guns? I like the behind the seat idea.

The EA cars are so easy to break into, you wouldn't have your SKS for long.
The wagons have such nice storage under the carpet in the back, better, safer and smarter.
The last thing you need is to get your gun stolen and used in a crime, keep guns in the hands of legal owners and keep it out of sight. Unless of course you're in your early 20's and want to look cool.
Never have my rifle in my car if im not in it, i dont take it to run erands in town. only time im using a gun rack is when im mobbing in the woods or chasin down big mulies so theft is not an issue.
-
Was thinking of gun rack ideas for my ea82 wagon build, came across http://www.discountramps.com/car-pet-barriers.htm, Anyone have experiance with any of these things in an ea82, think it would be strong enough to suspend an SKS? Anony homemade builds of similar type? Think it would be slick looking lol:Flame:

You can find hankock dynapro's m/t in 215/75/15r, Surprised nobody has brought them up, they are fantasticly quiet, so ive heard. They are on my neighbors brat and look great, and for a set of 4 you are looking at about $600-700

+1 what corvette said, AWD is what makes the almighty subaru a beast, and why the honda prelude cowers like a small puppy.
-
I'll be a rebel here...that would be one KICK rump roast WHEELER!! Gota love an old pristine rig like that, but a pristine sedan sittin on 27'' swampers would be cooler.
-
Im in for sure, need a ea82 4''. just throwing out...$375 haha
-

If you can help out just one oblivious subaru owner lift their wagon, then wth why not?
-
definatly interested, how much of a bargain would we be talkin here? Just shoot me a Pm with more details:)
-

Talking about the blonde in the back of the jeep? =)...ohhh right the buggy, yea
-
Get a cap from NAPA, my cap is very tight, much tighter then the stocker i lost...
-
Save the headache, those Guma 3 speeds are absolute garbage(I drive one) find an 4AT, it will bolt to your ej.

Push button sucks. For the "average" off-road situation it fairs quite well, But If your going to upgrade the motor, throw a 5 speed d/r tranny in it as well, it will make a world of differance. In other words, the snowdrift you were stuck in with the push button, you would be mobbin the hell outa it with the D/R:lol:
-
If it flows good, just add coolant and water. Change your T-stat, sounds like it may be stuck open. Also you can put a chunk of cardboard infront of the Rad. that will help warm things up. It will not overheat. When you get to warmer weather, pull the cardboard and you will be fine.
Get new Rad. hoses too if you havnet done that in a year or so. They are cheap too.
+1 on the cardboard, easy cheap "mod" lol
-
Thats a headache and a half man, Just lots, and lots of work. IMO buy a legacy that had a turbo from the factory, there a dime a dozen! atleast in WA state...
Then you would have the correct turbo platform to upgrade on, to replace existing turbo conponents, with WRX parts and what not.

IMHO i would let the stock y-pipe be, as well as the cat, that will keep youre much needed back-pressure. From the cat just straight pipe it with 2.25'' all the way to the back (unless you got to worry about yuppie emissions BS) That would minimize cost and would give youre ea82 a nice purr and growl. This is the setup I run, Cost me under $75, and you can "hear yourself think" inside the cab=P
