old sub freak

I found one NOS Hitachi....Insert sad face...I may buy that one and keep my eye out for one more...I was so excited when i found the add on ebay...but alas..they only had one ..So the hunt continues.Close but no cigar .....thanks guys

i concur ...Good luck

yea,he didn't have real info about them other that it was a stock Hitachi. you can't beat $150 bucks but.......I was hoping to find someone that got one and see if its worth anything .

Brats made for Japan had duel carbs.when we were buying low mile engines we always got the ones with duel carburetors...just for the coolness of it and they sure had more power...So.... i found two choices...one. hitachi ...carburetors made in China for $150 bucks or number two New old stock from japan for $600 bucks...And i know you get what you pay for but.....$300 compared to $1200 is something to consider.. so....any thoughts? anyone ever used a Chinese Hitachi ? Thanks and stay safe ,todd

Got It ....the pump wasn't grounded..duh ,,,easy peasy Japanesy ...thank you guys

so.... I still have no power to the fuel pump .I did the hot wire but still no power to the pump..??is there a place in that line that could be broken ? or did i hook up the "hot wire"wrong ? my hot wire from the battery to the pump came apart yesterday as the Grandson was driving his new Subaru hatch back ....i need a permanent fix for it ....how hard is it to install that "relay"thing from amazon...? Thank you and everyone take care

thank you ..i just like the coolness of a stock duel carb set up on my Thrasher...my dream would be to find two ,stock ,off the shelf Hitachi carbs.I know ,i'm a dreamer....but it could happen...i saw a few years ago on ebay but had no play money for them..two webers would take away the stockness and a lot of work just to get them to work right......so .....Thank you for your thoughts ..you guys stay safe a take care in these CRAZY DAYS

hey gang,anyone put two webers on the subaru with duel manifold? i rebuilt one of them 18 years ago....it runs ok but lacks the zest it had all though ago ...thank you

i am hopeing to find a couple new old stock ones .mine are ok and it runs fine ...just not much pep..thanks though

Hey Folks..I need two hitachi carbs for my 84 brat..It still runs ok but ......two old stock carbs would make it purr again.I have tried to rebuild a few over the years but they never came out right. any thoughts. I considered a couple webers but i don't thing they will fit...and i like to take off the air cleaner top ...just to show off the twin carbs .

Thank you Guys.. my Grandson is stoked to get it..Taking out the welded diff tommorow. Let him learn the ropes before he gets in trouble up in the woods or having to replace wheel bearing ect from driving with the differential end welded up..Thanks again ,Todd so i put this on and Nada....the pump worked hotwired from the battery but not like this...is that hooked up right ? i will go check the fuses ect...thank you again for the help,todd

cool ...I will check that out ,Hope your doing ok in these crazy times insert big thumbs up Hmmmmm ? its just over the years i have replaced that to get the pump going...and assumed it was bad.so can a guy just run a hot wire that the key can shut off to the pump lead on the revolution senser ? or just spend the cash and do it "the right way"?

Hey gang.my grandson is buying my 1984 hatchback. the roll over switch ? (the small blue box just above the hood latch ) is bad. I have it hot wired off the battery now,but need a more permanent solution ... can a guy buy one of these somewhere? is that the right name/ i was always told it was a roll over switch..? so...... any thoughts ? thank you ,todd

Well guys... i just got a belt that matched the one i took off...and that part is fine..But the no start ...After looking everything over 50 times hahah i realized I had broken a few teeth on the outside of the crank shaft sprocket while prying it off.....The ones that line up with the sensor ...duh ? Live n learn.... put in a good one and VaRoooom..easy peasy Japaneasy....Thanks Guys .
