perhaps it is leaking oil?

heres a pic of me at our 4th of july 4x4 run.

i know it took a while but for future references here are some pics of the buggy. And a couple of the other things i 4wd in.

Hey i love dave mathews also. They did an AMAZING job at all along the watchtower.

grateful dead, steve miller, sublime, motley crue, jimi hendrix,mystic roots, bob marley all seem like suby working music to me.

unfortunetly ill bet the warranty didnt cover that. no coverage for stupid LOL

from what ive been told the stock boost level on that motor is a 7 psi. i dont suggest raising it either but ive been told 10 to 15 depending on how healthy the motor currently is is the limit before having serious risk of breaking things.

that might work on an ej but ill bet on an ea81 youd be loosing more fuel then what is getting into it.

yeah im not sure how good an idea it is to carb an EJ since their fuel injection system is excellent already but i would love to see about putting a harley carb on my ea81. even though to be honest my weber should work fine.

great work. ive seen your videos many times before. things like that are what make us all proud to drive a subaru.

thats great to hear. i just hope it can hurry up and get registered. id love to see the thing in action. ill bet it handles awesome.

speaking of that hows your nissan coming along?

never heard of a brownie tranny before. i was gonna say i probly have some brownies in my suby but i dont think they will help with performance a whole lot LOL.

i think i heard of someone on this forum who put a carby off of some kind of harley onto an ej22.

well the past ones will just drain the battery and make it die out. this time when it failed i noticed that it still works but if you take off the battery cables it will die out.

In the past year my subaru has gone through about 4 different alternators. Now i usually buy them used at the junkyard for around $15 but id still think that i would at least have some last a little long but it seems like for every season that thing goes through a different alternator. ill admit i do rev it hard but im still surprised on how quickly they seem to go out. does anyone know if there is a certain type of alternator to get or a certain years of subys that are more or less prone to alternator failure.

thats awesome

That is awesome:D

well as many other members will tell you on here those old ea82s have a habit of ticking quite a lot. it may be possible to fix but often people just let em tick and they are known to go for thousands of miles that way before anything goes bad. if there is NO oil pressure at all though then that may be some sort of problem with the oil pump you put in it.

Thats cool. is it an old ea82 5 speed or did you get one from Aussie?

Im willing to admit jeeps are serious gas hogs but as far as reliability they are about as good as subys at least from my experience.

Sorry my bad LOL

Nice suby but i always had a question regarding these. Does anybody ever bother putting a dual range in them or do they seem to do well enough with the single range awd?

Wouldnt it also work to gut out the ignition and use a screw driver? i know i have some rigs like that for me. Then again i live in the middle of nowhere so theft is not an issue.

Glad to hear its working out for you. Ive heard that myth before of Subaru being really hard to work on but from my experience thats just not true. ill admit the computers get confusing but for the most part they are easy.
