  1. So installed some really nice speakers into my brat door, everything was sounding good, until I shut the door and my speakers basically embedded into my seat. DAMN YOU SOOB GODS I screamed WHY WOULD YOU DESIGN A SWEET CAR(truck?) LIKE THIS. Anyway after that I started looking for somewhere to mount the rest of my speakers and we just so happened to have the technology to mount them inside of the center dash directly below the stereo

  2. Don't have a pic of it right now but when hes working on something with the shop door open i will get a pic of it some time.

     

    Sweet, I have to see anything that sounds that awesome

  3. i have a friend down the streat from me that has a datsun pickup thats hes built really nice and very well everything has been made custom buy him for it since he has his own differential shop. it has a ford 351 motor in it which has been converted to propane which makes the motor run great since the octane is about 120 compared to the 87 or so of gas plus propane is cheap comepared to the price of gas i think he said he spent 5k or more on the motor. it has custom differentials on it the front one cost about 10k to make and the rear is about 3k take into consideration these have custom gearing, axels, caseing, ect. and that these have all the bells and whistles as people like to say. then he has the custom suspension setup which is off a 1ton truck plus his lift kit and bigger tires. he also made a custom tube bed along with a exo-skeliton, front and rear winch bumpers, and a bunch of other suff. i bet if you go to build it its 30k or over. he says if he kills it in the mud pit dont even bother pressing if i remember right the clutch since the differentials have such low gearinging just turn the ignition over and it keeps going.

     

    Will you please post a picture of that??

  4. Except a Brat has the same running gear as an EA81 wagon, so of course it fits.

    Stuff got changed when Subaru changes bodyshells.

     

    I've heard of the brakes being interchangable between the models. Well at least fitting the bigger EA82 stuff onto an EA81.

    no i had an ea82 wagon that had discs and drums that were redrilled to 6 lugs and then i swapped them onto my 85 brat,

     

    Basically just make sure that everything is super tight with absolutely no play of any-kind(obviously)
