  1. On the wire diagram, it says the speed wire is yellow/red strip, on the round black multi terminal, if you would like I can post the wire diagram. ( I am guessing it's the black multi terminal, cause it's the only yellow/red wire.
  2. Um.. Here is the link. http://www.tyreleader.co.uk/steel-wheels/peugeot/
  3. Anyone know if any of these wheels can be modded a little to work in my brat, don't really understand their measuring diagram in the rim pages.
  4. I think I posted this in the wrong area and 3 times, so I'm reporting here.. Mostly I want to check to see if I'm doing my swap right, and I need some clarification on a few wires, I know this might be a bit redundant but I haven't had any luck finding it online.. So.. I followed numbchux's guide the best I could, this is what I have.. 86 subaru brat, ej22 engine and keeping the brat manual transmission, harness was done by SJR. Also got a complete wire diagram from a vender online. Ok, I have the speed, tach, oil pressure, coolant temp, going to the dash display, I have the "hot at all times" going to the battery with a 15 amp fuse on it. Now the things I don't understand, 1. Starter wire, the ecu has a 18 gauge, and the starter wire from the brat side is a 10, is it ok to splice them together? 2. I can't find the check engine light wire, the wire diagram says its blue/red, with a black/white (ground?) But I can't find a blue/red wire on either of the round plug terminals going to the display. 3.i have a few wires labeled "hot fused" should I also have these on the wire coming from the battery, is the fuse size the same? 4. One for "hot run and start" I just don't know where to put this... I think I have a handle on everything else, I didn't dismantle the car, but bought it in boxes, unlabeled and unorganized, so guessing where parts go, and having parts that I have no idea where they came from has been a challenge, but I thing this Brat is getting close to being driven.

  8. I had a 78 dl wagon in the mid 90s, 4 bald tiers, in one of the worst snow storms in 20 years. The only cars on the road were me and the cops. I drove fine without any problems. But was almost hit by several cops. Which would of been back cause I was homeless with no insurance, I loved my "boos of doom".
  9. No, no problem with the 8 button, ipad is just dumb some times
  10. Ok, now I understand, thanks guys
  11. I was looking thru the web on a unrelated topic, and saw someone posting that 79 to 84 was a ea1, and 85 and up was a ea2. It seems cars more compatible with mine are later, or 85 and up, so how is mine a ea1? Also in my specs books, they tend to split between 84 and earlier , or 85 and later. So... Ea2 then?
  12. The one on the left is a Justy, the one on the right is a brat.
  13. I may have found a right trailing arm, but it's for a justy 2wd, I was reading in the Haynes book that they are similar, their print pictures seems similar as well, any one know if it is compatible with the brat.
  14. Seems they have many different names, online at Subaru sites they were called trailing arm ( right, left ) here in this manual ( Chilton ) it's called inner control arm, and Haynes repair manual called it the inner suspension arm. But both my left and right had rust holes in them, and I was going to weld them to patch the holes, but I probed around a bit and found them completely rusted out internally. So I bought a left ( driver) side trailing- inner suspension arm- inner control arm, but still need to replace the right (passenger) side.
  15. I bought a 4" lift kit from SJR, and I wanted to make sure I have the right one ( thought it's a little late cause I already bought the kit ). Is a 86 brat a ea1 or ea2, also it seems like the leading rod bracket should be "lifted" along with everything else. Thanks in advanced.
  16. If I buy 2 left ( driver side ) trailing arms, can it put one on the right side ( passenger side ). I have been looking for a right side trailing arm, but they stopped making them. So I'm wondering if I can put a left on it, cause it seems to be mirrored. And can't really see mush of a difference between the two. Any thoughts would be helpful. Or if anyone knows where one might be hiding.... Thanks ahead of time.
  17. Tanks for the ej22 info, I was looking at several legacy models today, but didn't want to take one until I was sure.
  18. Anyone know what size the rear differential support bushing is, mine is fried and will need to be replaced.
  19. Ok been following this forum for a while, but I finally need some tech help. 1st, I bought both rear break calipers for a... 85 - 91 subaru brat, dl, gl or a 90 - 91 loyale, or 88 - 91 TX6. First I can't find a mounting plate for the rear calipers, any sites or other compatibility options would be helpful. 2nd, can I use any pre-2000 legacy motor wire harness, say from 93 to 99, to do the ej22 upgrade? If my questions are redundant, I apologize ahead of time.
