people in oregon where to play
chazmataz, im almost done with my map.. i think i can get from washougal to mt st. helens without touching a paved road!!! its gonna be rad (yeah i said rad). Ive toured much of larch mountain and surrounding areas over the past year and im hoping this map may be key to some great rally stages.. basically the more the merrier.. p.s. also working on a camera/ harness bar (think sparco) should make for some great videos! rllywgn

87 4 door GL -help- what to do?
i think the thing about the ea82 is figuring out what works on other cars with similarities and being able to apply that to yours.. alot of the stuff in the aftermarket can be customized to work in different applications. i would say if your looking for more performance start with intake and maybe an exhaust upgrade.. something that flows a little better. Also put upgrading your cooling system as a high priority, it will save you down the road.. almost guaranteed rllywgn

87 4 door GL -help- what to do?
try the search function for info to the basic mods and even the advance ones theres tips on here from everything from cv boot replacement to waterproofing your distributor. is your car a 2wd or 4wd? the aftermarket is rather soft for our generation of cars so plan on a lot of custom work in your quest for subaru stardom... great thing is, these can be wicked fun cars.. good luck rllywgn

98 legacy, amp wiring
most good stereo shops or hardwares store will sell the firewall grommet. run your power line on the opposit side of the car from the rca inputs to eliminate electrical noise (alternator whine). make sure you have a fuse within 12" (preferred) of the battery. when grounding, the shorter the better for the ground wire. basically find a good spot to drill your firewall or! run the cable in through one of the factory harness holes. make a small cut in the boot and slide the power line through.. may save some time. depending on how much power your working with heres some suggestions for cable: 8 gauge - up to 300watts 4 gauge - up to 1000watts 1/0 gauge 800watts and up just a few recommendations rllywgn

Converting XT Turbo to 5 lug, Elec P/S, Air Susp
when you do the swap you can almost pull everything for each front side in one piece (lower control arm axle, hub, strut, etc).. back is way easy as it is. just curious why the air struts though? i have them on my new (old) GL-10 but i already know there gonna give me problems eventually.. but as long as there gonna work.. there neat! rllywgn

A/C 1991 Loyale
being that your in pheonix i can see why you would want a/c... I lived just outside of lake havasu for a while.. i need to pick one up myself but i believe tha haynes manual's do a little better about pointing out part locations. although this may not be exactly what your trying to find, make sure the rest of your cooling system is up to the task of competing with 120 degree weather. I found a 2 row radiator to be basically a necessity downthere.. rllywgn

broken hood release
so the today i was looking under the hood tightening stuff and what not, then i finished, closed the hood and heard the socket tumble (that sound when you leave tools under the hood). so i went to pop the hood and snap.. here comes the hood cable.. dang.. so any tips? i believe it broke near the clasp itself. thanks in advance rllywgn

Radiator conversion/swap
are you looking to upgrade your radiator? if so, one of the easiest routes is a 2 row radiator, as opposed to the singloe row "heavy duty". check out radiatorbarn.com, they have a 2 row specific for L series for 138 bucks or so with free shipping, plus its all metal. With a little luck there maybe a "high performance" application thats close to fitting ( i havent found it yet) my ea82t wagon lived with mods and a/c in arizona off one of these 2 row radiators, 160deg t-stat and i wired the electric fan to come on with the car in "run" this setup was able to keep my car at stable temp in 115-120 degree weather rllywgn

Very stupid opinion???!!!!!......or truth
audi was originally known as Auto Union in the thirties and made its way through the first year or so of world war II. in 1947 i think it reformed as Audi as said before subaru had 4wd back in 76-77 but AWD was introduced in a production vehicle by audi first. rllywgn

Very stupid opinion???!!!!!......or truth
i wish i could verify the source but, i remember watching a rally documentary a few years back that stated audi was the first to put AWD in a production car so they could use it in wrc competition. i think it started with audi's group N (?) cars back in the early 80's. am i missing anything? rllywgn
