VERY eventful day in a EA81 hatchie 4wd.
not sure if it was on the hatch I used to have, or wagon, but when I got the new rear hatch supports, I have to transfer over the mount piece to the new support...

Bad noise! tied to engine speed. stopped or slow moving...
mcbrat replied to mcbrat's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXit's definitely in the front of the engine... haven't had a chance to see what exactly it is though...

ea81 cam gear replacement
figures.... I had a NOS short block shipped to me many years ago, and the packing job was less than stellar. I was looking at it the other day, and I noticed the cam gear has a crack in it...

ea81 cam gear replacement
ea81. to replace the cam gear, do I need to split the block and remove the cam, or can it be replaced with the cam still in the engine?

mcbrat replied to mcbrat's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXnope. does it while parked... but I'll verify... I got all my parts today for the clutch and axle swap... still need to get the items needed for the turbo swap though...

mcbrat replied to mcbrat's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXNo. Doesn't soind like that. It is accompanied by a vibration too that a can vaguely feel thru the shifter.

mcbrat replied to mcbrat's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXwhen I first heard it, it reminded me of a fan motor going bad. labored. kind of a lower pitched, sputtery growl.... if that makes sense.... bad enough that I didn't feel like driving it for my work commute...

1994 SS stock EJ22T. don't notice it if RPMs are up... but just off idle whether stopped or moving, the noise frequency increases with RPMs, but is not a consistent noise. seems to waver... 170k on stock engine and turbo (assuming it's original) clutch has been starting to slip occasionally. I'm hoping it's the turbo or the clutch, because both are going to be replaced shortly... TD04 (75k) sitting on the shelf waiting... any thoughts...

Back into a new gen for a daily driver...
mcbrat replied to mcbrat's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXI put new speakers in yesterday, and finally installed the missing map pocket the paper of the original speakers was brittle and ripped easily, and the foam surround was totally detached and mostly gone from the rears... the surround on the front speakers was still intact. now I need to get some all weather floor mats.

Hello and pictures of our new Project, 1979 Brat
Nice! Glad someone got it as I was torn each time I saw it out there... because my wife likes the Gen1's and I'd like to use my lift kit My '86 I sold was probably the one you inquired about. It sold to a guy in CR Welcome to the Subaru Family!

82 Brat chrome bumper question...
the front bumper of any 4wd Gen2 from 80-82 would work, and maybe an 83 DL if it had the chrome too, before they all went to the black style....

'82 Brat: Solid Axle Build *** DONE! :) ***
the full door went back on right after I got back from my last trip. no new projects for me, other than maybe some work/upgrades on the SS. I'm hoping to get the SPFI on the Brat this winter.

something just seemed like it was missing...
I think the exhaust sounds fine. loud sometimes, but controllable seat covers are doing fine. thought about getting some WRX leather buckets, but the stockers are still good and comfortable for me...
