Bucky92

Got a text message from Rob..he left around 11 ( our time here East Coast) about an hour later got another text saying that his air suspension went bad but he was still coming..bout a half hour after got yet a third saying he has the suspension working again. We are going to head down to daves housen tomorrow morning ..plan to be there early afternoon..so we can do a once again over Rocky ( if he makes it that far) and help get Princess buttoned up and done..should be there late morning early afternoon friday

Just keep us updated on your trek..you have the numbers..let us know how you are making out

I think mine has to be lighter...due to missing metal from the rust:eek: I was under him yesterday doing a spot check on the frame rails...ewwww..need to do something soon

There is a video floating around somewhere of a Loyale wagon with the STi stuff shoehorned into it

I also have to say..you do know we are talking about 20+ year old cars with well in the upwards of 200K miles on them..I was talking to somene the other day while working on my XT6 in PA .and he kept bragging about his chevy..sure it has 200+ miles on it..but it was on its second motor so it doesnt count...when I mentioned my Loyale and my Imp and the mileage (203K and 226K) and when I said "original" mileage he kinda shut up. Once I replace the axles and get tires for my Loyale..and put a new timing belt ( she is so due) and patch the gas tank..I would drive either one of those 2 cars cross country without a second thought ( WCSS10! ) I would even drive my Imp down to Honduras to have Loyale 2.7 Turbo do the bodywork on the rear quarters:grin: :-p

I completely sware by Seafoam.. I have never done the vac line trick yet..just some in the gas tank and some in the oil..Works wonders if you ask me...after running my Loyale with it for its TOD .. I have been told I have one of the queitest running EA82s around...if it wasnt for an exhaust leak you wouldnt hear him at all..OH and thats a car with over 200K on it. I use it in my XT6 as preventative maintenance since my motor has less then 30K on it. If you read through the threads about Seafoam..TOD.etc you will see the use of that along with MMO and also ATF ( OH! this is directed towards the oil leak issue). These car leak..plain and simple...I had my EA82 resealed and 6 months later it was leaking again..not as bad though..It keeps the underside of the car from rusting;) . Dont let that detur you from adding it to the oil..I would rather have to add a quart once a month then listen to TOD..

What time and where do you want us to meet up with you?.I dont want to travel alone and I dont want you guys to travel alone with all our cars have been through. Just have to be at the courthouse down there well before 5 on Friday

LMMFAO..or my exhaust leak :lol: :lol:

Nice car..nice scenery...U-G-L-Y mugs!! J/K!!

How many times have I told you...when are we going to work on Shel...I am there or I am square..you know that. Maybe next year Rockys frame will be fixed and he will be sporting the same paint..just done professionally. And Huck... I want a ride in Frankenwedge too!!!

Rob..you know I have a tattoo of a dragon on my ankle right?? and a chinese pheonix rooster on my other one...and a rose vine on my forearm...and my nose pierced right? ( dont want to suprise you like a certain someone did ..we talked about yesterday:) )

yea yea yea:rolleyes: .. I keep trying to make him go away but he wont go...Dont have a clue as to why he stays..but he does. On another note..i just drained Rocks cooling system ( was running straight water since his little blow out..flushed it with the hose..added one can and a quarter ( of an old can) of waterwetter..and 50/50...burped him took him for a spin..seems happily cool with his new Tstat and all. But I sware he was laughing at me...I could tell..cause everytime I would try to reach under to put the drain plug back in ..he would drip ..in my eye..on my face..in my mouth..Little bas$#%d car! Starting to pack him up..right after I call in the chinese food order

Did y'all realize that...shortly after 10 am Sat..my last name is going to be Dragone?? LMAO..how ironic huh?

Good someone needs too:grin: Poke him good for me too!

Tim...is this your RX you had at Carlisle?? It wasnt cause we were picking on the Maxwell house can was it?? If it is ..that car is the perfect starting point + some ..

I am a girl and seriously..its super easy...apply all that you know about a straight 6 or V 8..just that its H style now...its all still the same concept. And if you want to PM me your addy I can get you a copy of How To Keep Your Subaru Alive on CD pdf format..or if you ask oober nice I have an FSM for the EA82 in pdf format on my puter;)

As for friends and family on the board...I met my bestest friend here ( LeakingOil)...and some true saints to the car world ..Skip,Turbone ( my new daddy:-p ), moosens,edrach,McBrat,grossgary...etc etc.to many to list actually. And some even from other countries..Loyale 2.7 Turbo..he is my favorite body guy from Honduras..does amazing work with fiberglass and paint...Joost from Holland..another who helped me paint my XT6...just too many great people.. Also on this board..even the women are treated as highly as the men..Us girls get respect here..unlike other boards

What he said^..and even when you hate them ( like my love/hate relationship with my XT6) its hard to give them up...like selling your child.. I have had 7 Subarus..and currently own 3..each has thier own use. You will see

He doesnt know us too well do he???

HAHAHA I know that road very very well..drove it at least once a week...just for fun..Even old Bucky has done that one a few times ( It was a blast in my 70 Mustang coupe )

I have also owned well into the 30-40 vehicles of almost every make and model..and old Subarus...have personalities..everything else is just so boring. Plus they are 100 times easier to work on. Around here..I have one of 6 or 7 EA82 cars and the only XT6 ( the next closest one is an hour away and the owner is a friend of mine) Yet I cant drop kick a dead raccoon without bouncing it off a lifted Ford or Chevy or Toyota. I happen to be an old Ford Mustang freak ( only had 5 of them 66,70,71,79,81) and I like my Subarus so much better. I bought my 92 Loyale 5 years ago for $600..and it has been the most trouble free..dependable car..these things arent like american cars...oil leaks mean nothing...and can still be driven with issues. We arent a cult...this place is one big family...and I am serious..there are people on this board who will bend over backwards to help someone else out. We will drive hundreds of miles to give a fellow family member a hand. And for someone like myself who doesnt have family...this is mine. Once you drive a Subaru and the car bonds to you..you will understand;)

LMAO Dearon..you have to understand...us XT6 fans are edgie right now with XT6.net down. And its sad to know that you may never see ..or yet....drive ...an EG33 powered anything. I have driven my friends enough to know WOW:eek: and am looking forward to taking a drive in the infamous Frankenwedge. And like Phil states..we can take many many cars off the line with out ER27s..I know I have without even trying with my bone stocker. The cybrid steering thing..awesome...Its so noticable that when I have to swap into my Loyale or even the Imp..its a whole new world. Come up to the Dragon meet in NC this weekend...I will let you take Rocky out for a spin:grin:

Before we start and arguement about Er27 vs EJ whatever...let me just state..my ER27 is a great motor!..if you go back and note my complaints ..its been pretty much...everything else...with the exception of blowing an intake manifold gasket..which was actually cause by whoever installed this motor not tighening down the bolts to spec...and with old Rad caps the pressure never built up...new caps and a trickle leak turned into a mess..The motor is fine...the coil?? that can go on anything..the plugs wires etc..also can happen to anything. So lets not get into any fighting over swapping to an EJ..cause I have no plans of that anyway..want to keep my ER27..and save my EJ series for my Imp. and dearon..this quote: an EJ XT sounds like the most magical subaru of all, to me!! other than that, the JDM 2 door STI is the closest thing to a reliable subaru sports car there is!! almost makes you sound like our "friends" 3 main bearing love..LOL..J/k! winky crap

And when you dont want that wagon any more..you know I have first dibs!!! ( I LOVE that wagon!)

My plans are basically...leave sometime Thursday..the earlier the better..but still need to work some plans out with my travel partners ( Melis and Dave )..so it may be alittle later Thursday...just have to be at the courthouse before 5 on Friday to pick up the licence...Thats all I know for now..going to wing it from there. And I got the direct orders from Daddy that Rocky has to come...we must not anger Daddy:-p
