In 84 maybe 83, subaru swtich from a 8 inch to a 9 inch clutch disk and pressure plate on the EA81s with 4wd. So what you would have to do is aquire a flywheel from an 84 with 4wd replace your existing one with it then order a clutch kit for an 84 with 4wd.

You should add a water pump to the shopping list since you need to take the timing belts off to change it too. And for a sealer, I like to use Loctite 518

Here's the short version of the directions, you may want to reconsider doing this for the first time without a manual, even the stupid underware manual. 1. remove all accesory belts. 2. detach powering stearing pump from bracket and sit it out of the way. 3. detach AC compressor from bracket and sit it out of the way. 4. remove radiator fans. A must with the mechanical and very helpful with the electric. 5. find a way to prevent the flywheel from turning 6. Remove bolt from crank pully 7. Remove crank pully from crank. 8. Take off the timing belt covers. 9. take of the timing belts 10. remove the pump from the block 11. change the seals and o-rings 12. reassemble in reverse order. This is may not cover everything. Like i said it's the short list

I've always been a fan of the OEM clutch kits. They include new, not remanufactured: disk, pressure plate, release bearing and pilot bearing. I paid $122.28 the last time I got one. I would also recommend getting a new Release bearing holder. They get a lot of ware, where they contact the clutch fork.

Yeah someone set a time date and place, I may want to come up for the fun.

EA-82 EA-81 Engine-Transmission interchangeability
GLCraig replied to NoahDL88's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
hmm, Ratty2Austin said that he used an EA81 Flywheel with an EA82 Disk and pressure plate when he did his 5speed swap. -
Yes the single row was standard.

That may nolonger be the case.

Here's a pic from a 86 FSM showing the CAM timing for the different EA82 cams. At some point I must have deleted the other pic I had showing How to ID the different CAMs and the lobe dimentsions. I do remember though that the Turbo and Carb cams have the same ID markings

ea71 flywheel on ea82 crank...???
GLCraig replied to PoorManzImpreza's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
This all depends on the year, which the EA71 flywheel came come. I know that the early EA71 flywheels (where the starter mounted at the top of the bell housing) were smaller in diameter then the EA81/EA82 flywheels. The difference is enough that the starter will not engage the gear that goes around the flywheel. Also the distance between the center of the flywheel to the centers of the boltholes is also different. There may not be enough material to re-drill the EA82 bolt pattern. -
The last time I looked an EA82 FSM it showed that the carb engine and the turbo engine use the same cam.

Where is the fabeled Edrach Axle Tutorial?
GLCraig replied to MorganM's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Here's a tool I made to pull the end of the axle through the bearings when you install the axle. It's similar to the one that SOA sells. -
I had a set of hella 530s with the spot pattern on my old hatch. They were good with the 55w bulbs and even better with 100w bulbs. I'm not sure if hella still makes the 530s but I know they still make the 500s, which are also a great set of lights. They also offer polycarbonate lens shields for most of their lights. One thing I've noticed about the the higher end light sets Like Piaa and Hella is they include a premade harness and a relay in with their light sets. I'm not sure if you will get that from a lower end set of lights.

That caliper may be the one the hill holder engages.
