the sucker king

you "can" do anything....... but they didn't make a 70's coupe w/ 4 wheel drive, so my guess is it would take a bit of fabbing, drilling new holes, etc. it wouldn't be like the ea81 or ea82 cars where everything pretty much swaps in.

oh yeah. (actually i have no idea what my car would do at 14,000. i CAN say though that it has no guts what so ever at 12,000.)

should have mine in next weekend.

a month and a half to go.....who's ready? not me. but i will be! very psyched. so it's lookin' like the colorado offroad subie prom.

i have a couple sets in different colors, excellent shape, $10 a set. check with shawn first, cause he's got them CHEAP.

what i mean is does your hatch look like this: http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/Literature/brochures/1985-b.jpg if so, no timing belts. a gl should have an 1800 though, not a 1600. maybe one was swapped in? anyways they are WONDERFUL cars. i'm from lyons, population 1600. it's on the other side of rocky mt nat park from you, near estes park. i spend a good deal of time west of the divide in the summer. i don't ice fish. i like the colorado from pumphouse (near kremmling) to silt. trout, whitefish, suckers, whatever. my absolute favorate is the lower yampa (from hayden down). never fished your neck o the woods.

lazear, huh? not a big town. you have a fish hatchery though, right? where do you fish? the colo and the yampa are my favorates. oh the car- sounds like a nice car. you did pay the premium. is your car the lillte hatch with overhead valves or the bigger hatch w/ timing belts?

i ordered it from redline in california. it was $50.

i've not had any problems with my weber when starting, had it for a year, much better than the hitachi, which had a tempermental choke. the weber runs WAY smoother too. maybe something is wrong here. really my weber fires up every time, no problems. i have heard they are prone to icing though i've never experienced it. worth it? good god yes.

i'll bite- what's a urx?

i've got a couple more for you, mick. i've been holding out. will talk to you soon.

i did it with an 80 hatch and the ONLY holes i had to drill were to mount the 4wd shift lever. the diff hanger holes were there. of course it could differ from year to year. also some people complained about having to bang more space for the tranny. mine started out as an auto, and i had no issues.

i make it three! where we are going is still up for discussion. i would like to camp somewhere near the river if it's fishable when we're there. i think there's a decent size campground at big bend, just north of town. if i'm vetoed on the river camping, so be it. i suppose a headcount would be helpfull to decide where to stay. i'm can play it by ear if need be. i'm starting to think this won't be that well attended. the fewer folks going means less planning neccassary. i figured people would need time to plan if travelling long distance. doesn't sound like a whole lot are. oh well, prove me wrong!

good tires = the most important thing

.........................

rust free, and 52k? buy it buy it buy it! what body style is it?

so did anyone get any pics (right side up) from the meet?

i'm sure i have one i'll scan and post soon. Qman- i get a "forbidden" warning with your link. put some clothes on that hatch and repost, please!

it's the size of the barrels. primary=32mm, secondary=36mm. stock hitachi's are 28/30 i believe. the adapters from redline cast $50.

sweet pics and such. were you by indian wash? i think i know where you were. i've done a lot of wheeling in moffat county, similar terrain. i just got a welded diff and i think it will help on those rocks. desert rocks are so hard and smooth your tires tend to spin before they would on pavement, in my opinion.

i just want to say that i grew up there (actually in new lebanon, ny, about 10 miles from pittsfield).

you need to call the your state emissions. with a vin # they can tell everything your car is flagged for/ needs to have.

here's a map from delorme: http://img120.exs.cx/img120/5885/mapofmoabcopy5lf.jpg a couple trails are labeled by name, others you can find on this map by cross referencing with the moab websights

it should say right on the label vlsd. right next to the gear ratio.
