  1. Interesting. If thats the case then maybe a Gen 2 brake swap with alll the stuff? Caliper,Rotor etc.... Or......would a XT6 5-lug swap be doable on a Gen 1 Subie??? Thanks ya'll
  2. Hi does anyone know what year when the Brakes changed from the Gen 1 Subie to Gen 2? You know, from the messy pins/spacers caliper set up to the more Modern set up on the Gen 2? Thanks. My guess is 81 Brat, last of the Gen 1 body & 1st of the EA81.
  3. You lucky S.O.B. Nice score! More pictures will sure make us all Jealous/Envy:banana:
  4. http://www.ksl.com/index.php?page=1&ad=8812139&nid=745#4 You decide. Tacky or Tasteful? Have fun!
  5. Still looking for a Tailgate for your 84 Brat? Don't know if you'll see the post i sent. But on KSL.Com go Under Cars and Subaru/Brat. A guy in SLC is selling his Brat and Selling Spare Parts. I think his Name is Chris. Good Luck

  6. I was told many times I would never get dates or any Females looking my way.....it was true!....... For driving an old Junky Subie. Got rid of the old subie, got a girlfriend, got Married, had a Lovely daughter, got Divorced, Now looking for another Junky Subie Life is wonderful and full of expeirience when you have/had a Junky Subie:burnout:
  7. I fixed mine on my Old 85 Hatch with 3 small zip ties and one Wire thingy off a loaf of wonder bread and a little squirt of Electode Spray cleaner.
  8. The Owner is asking $1800. Who knows how well it runs/how well the engine was rebuilt, cant go off of looks alone.
  9. If you have a Stud Gun it could save the Hood but with that much of a damaged hood it may be prone to a Oil Can Effect, which the metal pops in and out like putting a dent in a Soda Can and popping it out, and no amount of Bondo(body filler) will fix it, it will only crack and fall off with the paint. Good rule of thumb....Bondo should never be applied no more than 1/8" when its ready for paint. Good luck. Love your Brat!
  10. t Jack up your car up enough to get your wheel off the ground, then grab your wheel(tire) with both hands, one hand 12 O'clock position on the wheel(tire) and your other hand 6 O'clock position on the wheel(tire) then a push n' pull on the wheel(one hand push & the other pull) checking for any Loose Play. Repeat again with a 9 O'clock and 3 O'clock hand on wheel position. I have replaced both Axles before and came to find out I Either had a Bad Wheel Bearing and/or a Bad Cone Washer Instead of a Bad CV Axle. Live and Learn I guess. Good Luck.
  11. Had the Gas line fixed under the Factory Warranty on my Bugeye WRX. It was free not to mention the courtesy ride to and from home.
  12. oh, i hate you. only because i envy you:grin: Nice work on the Brat.
  13. love the build!! I love your pictures as well!!! By the way.....thank you for that awesome picture of that Twin Turbo Legacy in Japan:banana: I'm going to save it as my wallpaper...if you don't mind:)
  14. My old 85 Red Hatch & my friends old 88 Silver Hatch......Wish I still had mine...
  15. I didn't know the obvious signs of a Blown HG but,now I know what to look for. Thank you all. Also, what does it mean when a Old Subie(EA81) back fires?? I was looking at a 86 GL Hatchback a while ago and it had this problem.....So, I walked away from the deal.....fearing that it would be a costly repair. Thanks again.
  16. Welcome!!!!!!!!!!! You found the right place for advice and freindly chats. Subie owners and fans of em' are the most down to earth people:banana:
  17. I know,I know.....Stupid question........ Thinking about buying a 85 Brat and I'm looking for all the Advice on how to check for HG leak/damage. The only method I know is to check what Is coming out of the Tail Pipe, Look for White Smoke,Right????? While reving up the Engine???? I've worked around cars but nothing like a Engine Overhaul or Tranny Overhaul......I guess I've been Lucky:-p THANKS GUYS, YOU ALL KISS rump roast!!!!!!!!
  18. Hello, I don't have the Handle...sorry....I also heard that a regular handle works. I'm curious, shoot me a e-mail if it works for you. I sent out your parts should be there either Sat. or Monday. Thanks

  19. I used to have a 92 Legacy L. My alt. craped out on me at 199,050 K on Christmas Eve a few years ago in the dead of winter. I started it up a few days later and drove it to the parts store and bought a new one! Then I sold it when the Tranny started to slip at 250K. Best Investment ever!!!!
