wouldnt that still be the odd lug pattern? the typical 3 lug pattern is 4x41/2 for most rwd cars and 4x4 on most front wheel drive

the plans for the datto are now to let it be my hot rod as it was intended now that i have the subaru for a daily driver this winter she is getting a tear down and getting a new cam and dual side draft carbs the ultimate plan latter on down the road is to get the body work done and paint it with a vg30er ( supercharged single cam vg30 found in newer fronters and xterras) and some chassis reenforcement the girl on the hood in the pic above is a friend of mine i was trying to get the car into the ratsun.net calender and figured hot chick on top of my car should land me a spot unfortuantly it didnt but i got some nice pics out of it my personal favs

find an rx trans for it and rally the crap out of it

yeah still a few things that need to be done like i need to make the fuel pump work on its own rather then an alligator clamp on the positive side of the battery make it so the tires stop going flat (leaking from the bead) but other then that im basicly ready for winter in my little 4x4

sure what do you wanna know about it

rebuilt the carb and took it for a drive talk about a gutless wonder thing can barly get out of its own way but i love it lol

tore the carb apart it was digusting i also drained the fuel tank because there was water and old fuel in it so with a rebuild and fresh fuel it should be good to go

so im curious why do you need to run the same motor ? are you going for complete resto? is is there some mechanical reason you you need to run a 1400

im not seeing any pics edit now i am looks good man let me know how much better it preforms i might want to do the same swap in my wagon

carb rebuild kit on the way i was very tempted to pull the weber 32/36 off of my 610 just to drive it but decided against it considering i cant take my only running car apart untill this one is reliable so ill rebuild the carb and run it this winter then then next summer when the datsun has its twin side drafts on it the subi will get the weber i must say i love rockauto.com even with shipping the parts are still cheaper then the parts houses

well i tried to tune it today and im thinking the carb needs a rebuild

thanks man yeah i love this little car i cant wait to drive it ok started out today but cleaning the head mating surface dad prying out the valve seals passenger side pistons drivers side yes she needs a good seafoaming torquing down the heads assembled the stair-down proof i did more then take pictures lol empty up....... ......and in running video of the quiet valves the timing and the dwell as well as the carb settings are way off its getting tuned tomorrow threw the air filter on it to see how its gonna look

alright i got off work today after working 8 days straight and dug into the subi first i painted the valve covers and air filter used a silver base coat and anodized blue paint then i got really busy for about an hour O_o end of the night tomorrow i finish painting the air filter stuff and put it all back together with new gaskets and a new clutch

clutch came in today i tore the valve covers off and checked to see if the cam was flat spotted and its not come thursday it will be on like donkey kong edit ************ty cell pics lol clean(er) engine head gasket set clutch kit

i might just do that i wasent going to pull the pil pan off just gonna put some new head gaskets in it but after i do that damn near the entire engine will be resealed

gasket set came in only thing it was missing was an oilpan gasket O_o valve seals everything and for 20 bucks cheap insurance

thats easy to fix change the seat or the steering wheel and your done

im looking to get about an inch of lift all the way around the front is easy but the rear is what has me curious can i reindex these torsion bars to get about an inch of lift out of it? i know vw guys and datsun truck guys lower or raise there trucks/ cars like this but how would it work in the rear of the subi?

well i bought some degreaser at ace and went to town on the engine its clean now well cleaner parts should be here tuesday and my next day off is thursday so the clutch will be done as well as head gaskets then its time to drive it

those are freaking bad rump roast

alright guys there are so many hoses on this thing anyone have a picture or 2 of how everything is supposed to be routed? i want to make sure its all set up right so that i can properly tune this thing once i get the engine back in it as you know its a 78 ea71 non cat car

parts are in the way so hopfully next week it will have a new clutch and head gaskets (cheap insurance) and then all it would need is reg and its ready to go

i found one on rock auto that im gonna get as well as a head gasket set figured i might as well do it while its apart

hey man my new wagon came with a ea-71 1600 short block that i would be willing to part with to help get this thing going if you had a clutch disk or some other parts i can use ill trade it to ya
