Flowmastered87GL

Come deliver pizza with me

I was the one who did the shortened shifter. Same throw, shorter rod AND knob My GL's short shifter Oh, and I ended up cutting off 2 inches, not 1.5 or whatever the page says. (I took off an extra bit after the boot kept sliding down cause the knob was too high up)

I dont wanna drive to hillsboro? You drove to Hood River didn't you?

There WAS a 78 brat with good fenders on it down here in Portland, but Caboobaroo and I took the fenders afew weeks ago ($25 each)

I remember seeing that car. I really like the idea of using a sedan rear piece instead of the soft top idea. I'm sure an EA81 wagon and brat B pillar could be grafted together too, but the sedan idea sounds a bit more promising as tehre is more room for the back seats that way.

Hmmmm if I can get Andrew to cart up his welder... we should bob the BRAT All I need you for Zap is to show me where to cut and what to be careful of hitting (wires, cables, whatever funny stuff is hidden in the body) and I need andrew to weld the arse back on

I will be having to move out of my present living situation in a month or 2 so I figured I would start looking. I want to get into a place with 2+ bedrooms and a garage (1 bedroom + garage would be really expensive for 1 person) Anyway... any sube nuts in Portland want a 22 year old college student roommate?

I also use the flathead screwdriver. I press the door panel as much as I can to give me more room behind the handle to work. I havnt yanked a door panel for a year or 2, but I recall it not being that hard to remove and install the clip.

Its registered in The Dalles actually

My 87 GL has NEVER had the light come on for any reason... somehow I think the bulb was yanked out... I never bothered to check however because since I removed alot of unnecessary parts to install the weber, I'm sure I would be getting all sorts of codes.

Heh heh, sweet Hey, I am in The Dalles til Friday so if he and Ahna are on I-84 and want to drop by he should remember how to get up here... Exit 87, then go south on Highway 197 and I am up on the bluff over it

I've had my 98 since MArch or so... its just been in the body shop for a long time. I bought it purely for the purpose of reselling. Had it been a 5 speed and wagon I woulda kept it, but an automatic sedan.. ummm no.

When you get back, I will need fundage for the Impreza (5 lug + Y pipe freight)... ETA of completion is now 4-6 days So... I may be pimp'n a 98 Impreza at the next rallycross

I know its coming up, I know I will be there (PROBABLY in the GL, but MAYBE the brat....) Anyone find the info page for it? I find it here and there on the ORG page, but havn't yet found DETAILS. Hmmmm so if I understand correctly... I can run Truck / SUV with the GL now huh? Its tempting to run Open class again, but somehow I think I would have a better chance of finally getting a trophy running against SUV's

Thats a pretty good idea there... I think you should go the small holes route also and make sure not to drill through the carpet, total stealth mode on the stereo You DO plan to drill a bunch of holes to let the amp get cool air too right???

Woo hoo, 5th place open class, only beat by a 2.5RS, Legacy GT, Impreza, and an Omni GLH To all WRX's that think they can challenge my 90 HP beast :moon:

my 88 toyota pickup at (former) work had only 90K and had a REALLY sloppy igintion... I could yank out the key with the truck on I could start it with pretty much anything too

if its JUST a muffler that i needs, just stick on a flowmaster or something... or a glasspack. If cats are needed also... then I can see how it can be expensive

I'm going with Ken... I guess a turbo legacy... my guess is a wagon.

Grrrr, I hate theives... my roommates stereo got ripped off from his Accord afew days ago It boggles my mind why someone would steal an 84 GL wagon :cornfuzz:

15 seconds I think is ok for an EA81, I belive my 87 does it in like AROUND 10 seconds getting on the freeway running to redline in each gear

Yes I have 4 14" alloys WITH center caps. Edrach has the lugnuts that you will need. His price is very reasonable too as they are $9 each new This is what I have I paid $50 plus time and gas to drive all the way across town for them, but I will be asking no more than $60 from you for me to bring them down to Albany. The tires on them suck, they NEED to be replaced.

Personally I think there is more talk about failure than there IS failure... beinga 2000 I think you are in decent shape... its like 98's and stuff that I HEAR about having problems... (the phase 1's like you said) Since you are in Oregon with most of us... you need to rallycross with us http://www.oregonrally.com Next one is in Hillsboro in about 3 weeks :bday:

my $350 86 that I had you swap the engine on... had the SAME problem... sometimes the gas light would come on AND the trip computer would read 0 miles after a fill up :cornfuzz: Solution... I sold the car and told the guy to trust ONLY the odometer and the analog temp guage

Since on one said anything... I belive 140's are safe jets to run in a weber... whether or not they are perfect for the car is one thing... but I do know they are safe (you wont blow up the engine or anything)
