i was curious as to whether the ea82 spfi manifold had better flow than the carb manifold. anyone know??

modded this m&m tin onto my shifter. lmao its awesomly comfies too. fits perfecting into a hand. : D

dont need the carb theory anymore hah you jsut gave me the summed up version

if its old school i say props. New stuff jsut isnt all that cool to me.

ok so most people will say put a weber on it. well from what hear and read its the best. I like to experiment with different things and try to not follow the crowd. just for gits and shiggles. wouldnt throwing a bigger carb off of say a z24 nissan do the same thing. More cfm = more air + gas which =vroom.... cuz i can pick one up for like 30-40 bucks. also...... why would the weber boost power so much more than the hitachi???

well i ditched my ac compressor as well. havent had a single problem over the year or so that i havent had it. i did help it out by putting a bigger washer inbetween the bolt head and bracket jsut to help encourage it be happy. : D

anyone ever messed around with steam injection???

yesterday i mounted the driving lights i got for christmas. they are way better than the headlights. and did an oil change. added that "Engine Restore" stuff to my oil. i think itll do some good for subie. to early to tell on any improvment.

I did this to mine its way fun when its wet out. well idk that its real hard on anything. over a yr + maybe depending on drivn habits. hell it was raining tonight and i was headn home from shootn some pool. every chance i got i was sideways or driftn across lanes when i drop second its fun as hell. totally worth it

or pistons hah or machine the pistons so the the valves will clear.

K well hear it goes. been tinkn about doing a dual carb setup on my ea82. But id have to modify the factory manifold because it has coolant valleys going through it doesnt it???

hey there and yes welcome. tons of these guys are genius's hah im 19 and got my subie about a year ago and theyve got tons of great info.

well i dont have a cat and have a glass pack. sounds frickn sweet but it does get loud. so if you do use a glass pack put it closer to to your engine if you can. im not sure but i think this helps muffle it down a lil bit. less pipe to reverberate b4 the "muffling" device haha. thats just an assumption though.

ya thats what i planned on doing but my dad has the compressors plug in tore apart for some reason grrrrrr...........

well i jsut did an alternator swap from an 87 nissan pathfinder. 90 amp alternator. it practically bolted right up to my ea82. all i did was use the female connectors for the plug in. i believe most alternators out of the older 3.0 v6 nissans will work.

and it will idle fine. its jsut anything past like 1000 rpms.

alright heres what it does........(hitachi) under any throttle range itll die from lack of gas being pulled through the primary jetting. i recently rebuilt it and immediately would starve out. well with a lil red straw used off a spray can i blew through the primary jetting. after pulling the top off to plug the air bleed (im assuming that is what this hole is for) with my finger so i could see air bubbles in the bowl and i did. put it together and ran great. a week later does it again. i took a flash light and watched no gas getting pulled through the venturi. its a primary only thing. seconday moves tons of gas and the lil plunger pump (4get what its called) pumps gas to so that narrows it down to the primary circuit. any thoughts guys??? im thinkn its just somthin floatn around but it seems to random to be that.

so i used to drive a rwd b4 i got my subie. well this fwd stuff bored me on the pavement and the no rear e-brake grrrr...... hah well i dropped one of my front axles and drive around in 4 hi so in theory its just a rwd.(drifting donuts makn cookies ) is this bad or hard on the front diff???

picked up an alternator from a nissan 3.0 v6. did the swap into my 87 ea82 carb. literally bolted right up except for about an 1/8in worth of washers. so far so good. multimeter said 15.4 volts from the alternator(disconnected battery negative) so far so good. used female plugs for the plug-in

considering i have a spare from when i toasted my heads when my water pump went out yes. hah woulda made it home and saved if id waited longer for the engine to cool b4 adding water damn. oh well hah

is at lower rpms or just idle??? try loadn up the engine when it starts acting up. (like 30mph in 5th and floor it for like 5 seconds) idk but when my carb acted up like that i would do that and that seemed to solve temporarily until it would do it again a different day. does it cut out at low rpm when you get on it or give it any gas??

For the record i am only dreamin. yah haha. anyways. anyone ever considered doing a stroker kit maybe?? lengthen the stroke possibly?? im not quite sure how to do it but idk machine the bearings out to accomadate a longer stroked crank out of flat four. vw or subie or..... frick who knows maybe one out of a completly different type of engine. i enjoy trying to make stuff work.

its me. hah thats about it

at one point i was paintn all kinds of stuff on car a desert camo brown. i painted all kinds of stuff. hell i made some foglights out of those french vanilla cafe can thingys. they worked too.(i got them in the pic inserted around my grille) hah. i hacked off the bumper wraps with a grinder cuz the screws were rusted and inconvenient to get to. made a cold air intake out of random stuff laying around the house plus an air intake hose off a jeep cherokee. got the cone filter from shmucks. Tinted my tail ights with black spray paint. glass pack for my exhaust. (20 bucks). ditched the catalytic converter. wired up an under hood light. stripped the interior. its all been fun.

well i just rebuilt mine for like 20.00(schmucks) . cheaper than 60 for one at junk yard thatll prolly need rebuilt anyways. and unless you have emissions to worry about alot of the vacum stuff isnt that big. i have one to my secondary distributor and one to my vacum chamber. im sure i left out one or two things but really itll run fine if you pretend your just mounting up a carb on an old v8
