Yeah an 85 wagon is what i am thinkin about now...although the 86 wagon this one guy is selling looks very nice. I think the ea-81 would be a much better choice judging by what you guys say. So a 1985 non turbo wagon with an ea-81 engine sexy car. haha. wow im so pumped up for this car it should be a lot of fun. I found a guy through another post who does brushguards and racks that are exactly what i need although i still dont know prices. Should be one helluva fun car. Thanks for all the input guys you really are helpin me a TON:grin: Edit: damn subarujunkie your 84 wagon is exactly what im tryin to build. 3 inch lift with the rack and brushguard im lookin at. Looks like one helluva nice one. I was thinkin about goin 15" pugs on 26" tires? does this sound okay or what would you guys suggest?

oh man you guys are awsome this is EXACTLY what i needed. That brushguard is just what i was lookin for. Thanks again EDIT: oh i was scanning his site and didnt notice any pricing. Do you know prices for that same brush guard you have and the rack version 2.0? or would i have to ask him about that?

okay heres the thing . haha i want a push bar and a rack i could fit on an '86 wagon. I hear you cant buy them so i was thinkin about makin one. Problem is i wouldnt know where to begin. I know my way around a metalshop quite well. i can weld and cut and do just about anything but i have no idea on plans. Anyone have some plans of some sort or give me some advice. I dont wanna mess it all up. ORRRR if someone could completley build me one and i would pay you for your time + any costs to you. I would of course need a quote so dont go start right now i need to raise the money as well. thanks in advance

all i want for my birthday is a soob and i really hope i get that

awesome man thanks for the help with all that it really helps a ton. Like i said i am scanning the archives tryin to find stuff so i dont ask TOOOO many redundant silly questions. Could anyone help me a lil more with this quote above?? what is he talkin about exactly. Sorry i am still a COMPLETE beginner to this and not to smart when it comes to cars but thats part of the purpose to all this is to learn more about what im doin here. haha thanks again everyone

wow cool coincidence... happy birthday a week from thursday to you too:). I cant wait to get a soob. I already found a guy who im talkin to about buyin an '86 from for 1100 and it includes a TON of extra stuff... hes a guy on this board as a matter of fact. Im hopin to get it in the next couple weeks and start the modifications. I already have a few trips planned. Im goin to whistler canada this summer and know of a couple places around there to go. Im also goin to priest lake idaho in july and i know of a whole bunch of places to go there too. Well thanks again everyone for the warm welcome. I dont think ive been to a forum with much niced people then y'all seem to be :cool: .

yeah thats what i was thinking, just wondering if there were any other websites around.

hello all, im lookin for a website where i can find and order offroad parts i.e. brushguard, big ol' rally lights, rack etc etc. As cheap as possible would be nice. Also any stores you recomend in NW Washington state. I was thinkin i could also put out an ISO on the marketplace forum for used parts but would prefer to do it this way. Thanks in advanced for your guys help

yeah right on i noticed a lot of people from NW washington like myself... you guys know of whidbey island? i live in freeland on the South End. For my first im lookin to build an offroader... hopefully an 86 gl wagon N/A with a 3" ozzified lift 26" tires brushguard etc etc. Thanks for the warm welcome

hello again, yeah sorry about the confusion i was a little confused as well haha... me and my friend were talkin on the phone at the time and were talkin about both... I do not want a rally mobile but i do want an offroader... so for this i need: a mid 1980's gl wagon NON TURBO (scannin posts here and ebay and autotrader etc etc)(Edit: ehh i keep hearing about gl-10?? what is the difference on these and the regular gl's? which is better for offroadin?) 3" lift (ozzified is best right??) 26" tires (dunno brand or price yet?) 15" pugs??(heard a bit about these but dont know if i need for sure or where to get em) brush guard (dunno where to get?) a rack (dunno where to get?) rally lights (dunno where to get?) sweet spray paint job haha Custom roll cage built in my shop class i know im forgettin some stuff but bare with me haha i have no idea where to find a lot of this so some help would be appreciated... also any other ideas on buildin this OFFROAD (lol) machine would be appreciated. Sorry if some of these questions are redundant to what others have asked i have been scanning old posts to see if i could find some answers to my questions

hello all, im new here... my name is andrew and im only 15 . Haha well im just following instructions sayin whats up all. I currently dont own one but am hopin to get one in the next couple weeks. I turn 16 on june 3rd so i am thinkin sometime around then. Thats partly why i signed up here is to get info on my first from you guys... ill be postin questions quite regularly im sure. Well great to be here see yah all around.

hello all, i am lookin to build an rally mobile. i was thinkin an 85 or 86 gl wagon. the first major question i have is about which model of gl? Should it be turbo? i hear about this turbo traction thing a bit but i dont know what it is at all haha. also whats the difference between ea-81 and ea-82? i cant find that anywhere. For mods what i have so far is a 3" lift from ozzified, 26" tires (help on what kind??), some rally lights ( also help on what kind and where i could find em??), a sweet paint job , a rack (for snowboarding next winter), and thats about it. Any other important stuff ill need? id love to hear some of the stuff you all have done to your cars. i live in western washington so there are about 019303 places to go offroading around here so it just seemed like a fun practical car to own... thanks in advance for all your help.
