Funny Story
I think the guy is a Stalker......and as long as you have the brat you will be followed by him. My advice would be to sell me the Brat and save yourself a headache:banghead: In all the Junk yards here, there are no Brats but there are XT's. Glenn, 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester

BRAT shifter kart under way
Looks cool so far! Are those three lug wheels? I thought Renault was the only three lug pattern? What are the finished dimensions of your cart going to be? Is there any links for this type of cart? Post Pics when you have them! Glenn, 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester

Rally lights. What works... cheap.
Several folks use the Harbor Freight lights and are happy with them. I have them on the top of my buggy and like them. Get them on Sale for around $7.95/pair. Glenn, 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester

Chef Tim went and did it!!!!
Congrats, How long is she and how much does she weigh... I assume no problems on the delivery? Sounds like you were able to take her home immediately. How are the other Subies taking it? Post some pics......................! Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester

Where does the Justy owner fit in on this site?
I copied this from the "Older Generation of Subarus" header, Older model Subaru discussion: 360, DL, GL, Loyale, Brat, Justy, Xt, Xt6, STD, RX, RS, GLF, FE, GL-10, GL-5, GSR, DL-5, FF-1, and Rex. So it looks like Justys are barely welcome here:rolleyes: However, the more you modify it,......the more the Justy is welcome here! Just Kidding, Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester

New to the Board from Montana...:D
Yup! The Distributor Cap and Rotor and the Spark Plug wires seem to be the magic solution to making the old subies run better. Your distributor is in the front of the engine in the center. Find you plugs on the bottom outsides and trace them into the top front center of the motor area under the front of the air cleaner. Good luck' Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester

Yup! Spark Plug wires. I noticed twonremtz was kind of a ghost member.... Try the basic tune up and I'll be it runs better. Good luck Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester

New to the Board from Montana...:D
As for the hesitation/jerk, try a new cap, rotor and wires...? My car does this from time to time and a basic tune-up seems to cure it every time! twonremtz Is in Billings and there is someone else who moved there but I can't find him at the moment? Good Luck Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester

Car stripping advise
Your doing it the easy way! Brace the motor and tranny and pull the body off the motor, struts, wheels...! I did it in 20 minutes. Kept the running gear in one piece. When you pull your driveline plug the tranny so it won't leak all over.... Good Luck! Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester

How is life in the real world?
86Subaru, Welcome, Harpua on the board here lives in Afton! He drives an maroon RX. I'm sure he'd be a great local source for info on your Subie. Oh ya, one more thing, he might answer to the name of Donny. Good Luck, 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester

Where does one get paint for these old school cars?
I thought old Subaru paint came out of Krylon spray cans! I used bedliner on my SubaruHummer! Good luck Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester

Electric Fan Issue
What kinda car do you have? My temp sensor is on the RHS of the radiator and has a single yellow? wire attached to it. (82 Hatch) Have you tried jumping power to the fan just to see what happens?:-\ Many folks have just ran a switch to the fan for manuel cooling? Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester

Suspension travel?
Bythesea, This was an old thread, I have since resolved my suspension issues. FYI I used BugPac coilovers in the rear. I currently have the coils off the shocks because the old torsion bar seems to support the buggy just fine. If I find I need more lift or whatever I can always put the coils back on. Last weekend Harpua and I "ramp tested" the buggy. We were able to get it around "16 off before the rear came off. Glenn, 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester

Clock issues?
Sweet82 replied to Sweet82's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXIt took a while but, last night, as I was driving home, I finally pulled my clock off while waiting at a stop light. I noticed a small resistor "R510" was soldered on one side and not the other? By the time I got home "R510" was completely off. I got my trusty $3 Harbor Freight pencil soldering iorn out and re-attached it. Magic! It came to life! In the thumbpics in the above post, it is the exact same resistor. Thanks to all! Glenn 82 SubaruHummer, clock still works... 01 Forester, clock works again!

Bon~Voyage! Farewell to all! see you next year! update
I think solid axles are in Little Roo's future???? Maybe not Toyotas but how about Samurai axles???? I re-read through all the posts for a hint and that's all I can come up with???? Starting with a second Subaru is always a good idea---Then you have Two! Any more hints:confused: Glenn, 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester

buying a brat
My first car was a manuel transmission because I wanted to learn how to drive one. I think everyone should learn/know how to drive a manuel. Why not start out with one? In my area older Subarus are hard to find. I'd suggest keeping your eyes pealed and see if you can find one locally. If not.......have you tried the "Market Place" on the board? If you find a good source for old Brats let me know and don't tell anyone else:lol: Good Luck, Glenn

Bon~Voyage! Farewell to all! see you next year! update
Your Cruel----Stop teasing us! Give us just a hint of what "Little Roo" has in store in the future? Please, Please, Please, (now I sound like my kids) No wait let me guess............... A straight panel somewhere on the body................? No........that would remove too much character..... Be Safe! Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester
