rare soob?
Yeah, it might be "rare" but it's not necessarily "collectible" or won't necessarily appreciate in value.

Quick crank pulley question
All of the EA82 crank pulleys I've ever seen have had the pin. I have an EA82 crank pulley I don't need, and it has the pin. Let me know if you're interested, it's worth $5 plus shipping to me....

EA81 with SPFI
Hey Jerry. If those donor parts had been sitting for a while, the injector might need a good cleaning. See about swapping out the injector only perhaps?

ea81 question
Monstaru eats motors for breakfast and brushes his teeth with that foamy brush stuff they have at the car wash. several people have sucessfully passed emissions running Weber carbs with varying amounts of emissions doodads present or removed from the car. Go for it.

Score! redux
got an '83 wagon for $200 today! It needs to have the wiring un-monkeyfied and a couple other things need sorting-out. It's light blue and the body's EXTREMELY straight, and the chrome taillight trim and driver's side antenna (and the Jan '83 VIN plate) indicate that it's a late '82 model. This will allow me to sell the brat much sooner than I'd planned...

EA82T XX=XX N/A subframe!!!
plus it's bad for the transmission mounts and axles due to the odd angle. Minimal perhaps, but I can't tell how far off it is in the pic...

Engine swap EJ25 to EJ22
what about keeping the EJ25 manifold/wiring and just swapping longblocks (and "adjusting" the exhaust)?

RX --> Brat
i think that the RX rear suspension would be WAY too stiff for the brat. consider the weight difference in the rears of the two cars.

Frustration has set in
Dave's right about the need to screw the piston back into the caliper. The auto parts stores sell a "multi-cube" for 3/8" ratchets that is intended to be used to turn caliper pistons back in. It shouldn't cost you more than $10. it is preshaped to match the notches in many different pistons - hence the multi-cube nickname. Screw the piston back in counterclockwise. You may wish to open the bleeder screw a bit to relieve the pressure while you screw it in.

EJ22>EA82 wiring: Auto VS Manual SMACKDOWN!
...whatever. EJ conversion wiring: Auto Vs Manual Is the Shift Lock unit needed? Can I just jump a couple of wires and bypass the Shift Lock unit? >>>>>Austin said in an older thread to jump the AT/MT wires, same thing here? I'm pretty sure that the TCU is needed, but it will have very few wires left? OR is it possible to bypass TCU entirely by jumping the right wires? It would be nice to have fewer doodads to cram under the dash.
