Cryogentic Treatment of CV's?
bajavwnsoobnut replied to 4RnrRick's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...

bajavwnsoobnut replied to 4RnrRick's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
if I ever snap one on the 76 I might try to find a new set of rear shafts and do that but for me the rear shafts on the 76 are basicaly datsun/nissan shafts with u-joints instead of cvj's but might think of the front halfshafts though considering it's gonna get alot of abuse when I get it going again for rallycross -
that must be the old old old gut then cause it has moved a few times since then lol and that Bob's is still there I think but the one on Lancaster closed shop a few years ago which sucks

ea81 year by markings?
bajavwnsoobnut replied to Rockman's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
use the same motor mounts so yeah use the motor mounts off the ea-71 and bolt them up to the ea-81 when you put it in -

bajavwnsoobnut replied to Rockman's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
nope it's the linkage you hafta be careful of not the crossmember Brian cause the d/r has the same mounting points as the s/r tranny but the linkage on anything that is a gen 2 is different than the 81 brat d/r or any s/r of that era -
I used to live in Mt.Angel and who knows you might have seen me runnin around a few years ago with a 91 loyale 2wd that was the dreaded mica red but live up in the Portland area but if you want to make a trip up here I might be able to help if anything
-
well the rear diff and the tranny's do have them and if there is a aftermarket company that can make one for the subie that would be cool for the engine and there is one that you can get that clamps onto the oil filter and then also there is a lil gadget for cutting open the oil filter when you pull it out so you can actualy look into the pleats and if you want to you can actualy use a coffee can and some solvent (like mineral spirits) and wash the pleats out and then if you want to take it to a metallurgy lab (a good place for to find one is a state university or just look in the yellow pages) and find out the concentration of certain metals and find out what the heck is going on with your engine the reason why I know this is cause a majority of aircraft maintenance companies and aircraft owners do this to keep track of wear and tear on the engine in their plane

bajavwnsoobnut replied to rabbit_39's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
well then check for air leaks to the manifold like the boot from the maf to the tb and so on and so forth -
that's understandable they are not strict with the open class rules and the truck/suv class is sat up more like open but for the trucks and suvs to run and if you want the site for our setup it's www.oregonrally.com and just look under rallycross and the other exclusion of the rules is instead of prod being just 2wd the smaller bored 4wd's can run in it also cause of the unfair advantage of the higher capacity 4wd/awd's of PGT but IIRC we are sorta folowing the actual rulebook on that too so who knows lol it's a bunch of gobbledygook on article 11 as it is! and who knows what next year will bring also cause there has been word that even rallyX will be going with the staged rally stuff from SCCA

bajavwnsoobnut replied to rabbit_39's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
well I think I have been on it but I don't really know but the hills around here I try to keep my revs up above like 3500 rpm or more so I can get the oomph to go up it and for me I am over near the Clackamas town center. -
yeah sounds like it's different then cause we use the standard classes like in pro/club rally with the exception of adding a truck/suv class as in: Open Production GT Production Group 2 Group 5 truck/SUV and the course changes radicaly from one event to another and isn't a sat course as in roads already sat and stuff
