  1. -> So pretty much its more affordable to get a AE86 (old Corolla GT-S) then?
  2. -> Hi again! I was wondering if its possible to to do an RWD or AWD-powered STi GL Wagon? - How difficult would it be? - How costly would it be? - EJ20 vs EJ25 into my EA82 wagon? - Should I use RX or XT axles or use an EJ-compatible axles (ie. Impreza/Legacy/Forester)? - How is it compared with stock drivetrain (AWD) compared to RWD? ^ Just like that drift Leone in Europe, I would like to turn my wagon into an anti-AE86/SR20 or an anti-Evo/WRX. Since my wagon is being hated all over the city, I want to return their hatred back to them.
  3. ^ Apologies for creating a new thread. So it will work with any regular 1 DIN deck? Because I saw some pics here in USMB that the stereos are sticking out like a swollen banana. ^ Thats a pretty flushed set up! Nice!
  4. -> This can be a helpful thread for people who wants to replace the stock stereo on their EA81 or EA82. I've tried the search button before posting this thread. -> Long time no see guys! I have a question on which aftermarket or factory stereo that is compatible for the EA82. I'm aware the EA82 has a weird fitment for the head unit. So now I'm tired of my stock system with no CD/Cassette player. ^ I will update the thread on any compatible factory or aftermarket recommended by USMB. (potential to be stickied)
  5. -> Hey welcome to the forums! I have a EA82 Touring, and yea I'm not a frequest Flat-4 member (because all they talk about is all modern Subies). And yea I'm a Vegas dude too!
  6. -> Hello its me with a new EA82 question again. -> This time, its an A/C question. -> Its there anyway I can install a R134a A/C kit on my EA82 that doesn't come w/ an A/C system from the factory (R12)? -> So far on LV craigslist, there is a '92 Legacy for $1,450. And at the same time, theres a guy who is willing to buy my wagon for $1,200. -> What should I do!? Should I look for an A/C kit for my EA82 or should I replace my lovable wagon?
  7. -> Is this the one? ^ If it is; yup, you have a Touring wagon. Welcome to the few, the proud...you get the idea.
  8. -> ... ^ What CV guy? Please refreshen me, I have a TONS of thing on my mind. BT-> Took more pics of GLadys: Trip to UT ^ Not much happend, just testing its 'mud' and D/R 4WD capabilities. Top of a hill in east Vegas At a different location At Mt. Charleston Ski Resort on the same night ...more to come.
  9. ^ Where should I get them? Will it so with the wheel bearings? -> I bought all the parts that I could get with a very limited amount of time. Will post pics later on.
  10. -> I've found one two weeks ago, although it had the wrong interior color (blue-on-blue '92 Loyale). So I took chances (as an short-term fix), I took its:

    - full head & corner lights

    - front sway bar

    - L-F fender

    - front bumper (w/ turn signals and re-bar)

    - center console

    - all the (blue) seats

    - all the (blue) door panels

    - (blue) sunvisors

    - (blue) ash tray

    - all power window motors

    - (blue) rear 3-point seatbelt

    - hood stick

    ^ I got all of these for $150, but due to time constraints Marc sold the car/shell to a guy in CA it its gone now (I still need rubber moldings, and a gauge kit). :(

    -> I looking forward to replace all my blue interior into gray ones plus:

    - Rear discs or a full-on 5-lug conversion (whichever comes 1st)

    - all window moulding

    - gauge panel

    - newer Subie stereo & speakers

    - front shocks

    - Front wheel bearings

    ^ PM me on which cars/parts you have, thanks. I still have a guy in SD that has a total of 3-4 wagons in stock for parts!

  11. Did you ever find your shell? I still have one or two.

  12. -> Hmm...this really gets me thinking hard. The only primal reason for me to replace the dash just really because that the dash is dusty beyond comprehension! Looks like removing a complete dashboard is a daunting task for me (and Marc) to undertake. -> I can do an alternative and maybe use a matching gray-colored spray or look for a mint gray interior...I'll just get the instrument panel and whatever I can get my hand to on my last trip to "Blue" (the parts car). -> Many thanks for the tips!!!!
  13. -> Hi, its me again. I have a noob question again. I tried the search feature and nothing came out. -> I just bought a '92 Loyale 'parts car' for $150, but the interior is blue. but I'll go unique style so I'm going to convert my interior from 'AZ gray sandstrom coat' to 'CA blue clean coat' (yeah, my gray interior is THAT dirty, might sell it one day, and yeah I made up those names ). -> My question is is how to remove/install a dashboard. The guy who provides the parts (more EA82 parts still available ph#702-591-2883 look for Marc) doesn't know how to remove it. So I need help again, I need it off by this week. Many thanks guys!
  14. -> ... ^ I'm not looking for a totally new one, I can just look around for a part-out sale (208subaruguy), a wagon shell (artistic_gore), or a cheap wagon (any ebay/craigslist). ^ Nah...I'm planing on a full-on resto-mod; clean-shell/interior and if my EA82 gives up...either EJ22, EJ205/EJ207, or EJ25 STi swap in the future. I want to make it a semi-show car daily driver:)
