  1. is the distributer grounded if not ground it take its phone away and dont let it play with its freinds for like 2 weeks everything should be fine after that lol or maybe not
  2. how much money do you have there is a place that will custom build you cv axles and they have a life time warrenty but they cost more than your car each so for 4x tbe cost of your rig you could have bullet proof axles but then the stub shafts need to be upgraded then your ring and pinnion and your spider gears need upgraded you could just get good at changing the axles and carry spares
  3. lots of information in the off road section on lifts of all kinds shapes and sizes
  4. ya i have a procomp al6 multi spark discharge box it made a world of differance it makes up for the short comings in our ancient rigs and sometimes brings them back to stock power ratings i have a video about installing it but i got all my information off this site its so simple its stupid and completely reversable even on the side of the road were would that bad injector wire be you only have 1 fuel injector in the throtle body so if its not working its not running we might need pictures something sounds off do you have one of those multi port fuel injection units
  5. if you havent done a full tune up i would try that plugs wires cap rotor airfilter the plugwires cause all kinds of havok when they fail causes misfires and other issues depending on were.the spark is bleading off to even alittle loss in power to the plugs makes it hard to start the taking for ever to warm up probably due to the intake being cold the fuel can fall out of suspention as it moves though the intake manifold making it even harder to start and stay running till the coolant gets up to tempeture the throtle body can actualy freeze up so basicly untill that coolant is hot its not gona be happy but it shouldent die just idleing also the intake before the air filter has a tiny opening and dosent flow well at high rpms so check to make sure its open and theres not a piece of something partialy blocking it if you cant find the issue i found a msd ignition system make a great band aid for all issues ignition related
  6. check your ground wires from the body to the battery to the motor to the dash to everywere theres alot of those grounds for a reason
  7. yes and no they sell them just not for that car if you read through this site you will find the knowledge you seek
  8. alittle late here but i would lift it more maybe 1" lift blocks or drop the subframe and go 2" the subframe drop parts are on your outback if your striping it anyway thats the way to go if you put outback/forester struts on a lego you basicly end up with a outback not realy much of a lift
  9. i tryed to get a good pic of the car all muddy but it rained last night anyway hers some pics
  10. well the brand sponsers racing events out by my house and they hold up realy good in my terrain there awsome sand tires there also realy good an any loose surface and snow there all terain tires not mud tires but i did do alittle mudding yesterday and they did great i have a set on my rc car too yes they make them in a scale version too or close too slightly different tread more a mud tire than a allterain tire but still same brand same basic tread pattern the bigest reason though they were cheaper than 2 tires from any other manufaturer i can go from sand to mud to snow to rocks all on the same trail so i need a all around tire that dose everything and this is my grocery getter so it needs to work good onroad too heres a quick vid going from the highway to my house coming back from the store my property starts at around the 2:25 mark after thats its just driving around to the other side of the property
  11. get some shoe polish and buff it out and run it theres nothing wrong with that car a idea take the insurance money and keep driving the car win win money and the car
  12. have you checked to see if theres anything bent or worn out obviosly you want the drive line as straight as posable other than that i cant help i dont remeber how much i droped mine and my front is lifted more than the rear so it needs less drop than if it had the same front to rear
  13. i know toyota and chevy wheels fit i dont see why datsun wheels wouldent maybe use that thing that streaches out of some kinda of box that has a bunch of numbers on it that magicly gets bigger when you pull on it ive herd some people use them to see if stuff fits before they actualy try to fit something just a thought though sorry no real help there
  14. they did but not anymore i already cut the hay out of it and installed some sweet flairs no more rubbing the terain out here dosent get any ruffer but im not gona try to go up the back door or any of the hammers trails not with this one to be honest i went out to play tiny trucks i was just out messin around in my back yard but i couldent resist playin in the dunes i can post a vid of the tiny trucks jumping off the dunes if ya want
  15. i finnely got this rig finnished and got a chance to get out and do some dune running theres one dune i went off i dident think i was even gona make it up so i hit it hard well i made it up and then some lol you can see the hang time in the video the car goes up then hanges there before the front end drops and lands relatively smooth on the back side all and all it was a fun day out air at the 5 min mark
  16. dude weld a bolt in to a piece of pipe and smash the other end done or bend the old one back in to shape and sleave it done thats a easy fix i riped the mounts off the body on my loyale lol now the entire set up is adjustable and that rod is about 3ft long with rod ends on both ends
  17. i use chevy sockets or what ever i have laying around the housings need slight modification but thats what i did
  18. you could pull a axle and run a stubb in its place but its not a on the fly type of deal they have these new extended axles with a slip built in to it they change much faster but you might not be able to find one for the ea81
  19. it sounds like one of your timing belts is a tooth off 19 sounds about right thats about what my 5" lifted loyale got last time it was on the road it was actualy cheaper to tow it with the diesel to were i wanted to wheel it than drive it there lol
  20. ive seen that it actualy works pretty good and you get all kinds of gears to play with about 30 of them lol
  21. you can time it staticly with the engine off key on that will get you vary close if that dosent fix it look at your timing belts you might be a tooth off on one side dose the engine get warm at all 22mpg isent bad thats better than i get with my loyale its still higher than the epa rating of 18 city 21 hyway if i remember corectly so i dont know how much better your gona get
  22. check your fuses i had that problem and couldent figure out why one was dim and the other was good then i lost my tail lights and while trying to fix that i found a burnt fuse i thought was for the rear but it was the headlight dont ask me why it was still getting power but it was new fuse nice bright headlights i think theres a bit of a back feed from one headlight to the other
  23. you would need the entire subframe from the doner car and like sead above some mad fab skills you would mostlikly need a laydown style engine like a vw or a toyota van motor a toyota or honda or nissan are more upright except the van toyota layed it down under the front seats threse just not alot of virticle clearence ov course if you lift it there would be more room or if you cut a hole in the hood anything will work im gona try and shoe horn a 260 v8 in a loyale someday lol
  24. i used to rebuild cvs for pepboys and autozone i rebuilt these day in day out i just clamped them and smacked them however the last time i tryed that i couldent get it to pop i ended up using a 6ft piece of pipe over the threaded end and just put some waight on it and they came apart puting them back together is another challange just clean it and reboot it if its that hard to get apart its probably ok if theres damage like a cracked cage or worn balls it will pop off with little effort also you can go through the cup and accsess the c clip on the end of the shaft but you have to pop the sheet metal plug out of the end of the cup but i only recamend that if the cup is already damaged you can replace the plug but its hard to get too after its put together and silicone boots are a must if you want the rebuild to last
