1984 Subaru gl $2450 I believe. It only has 128,000 miles on it original every thing except for what should be done an average subarue gl. I have most of not all the maintenance receipts and comes with 2 cool books that would really help!! Please go on Craigslist of Seattle for more!! Thank you so much. By the way this is a 2 door coupe, and yes Subaru did make them they are just very rare to find, especially one in such good condition!

okay cool because i'm pretty sure it spits a sh** ton of flames hahaha!!! but you cant see them because of the catalytic converter or something, i could be wrong. Plus it is straight piped in between the catalytic converter and muffler, and theres an electric cut out right there!!! Do we have an anti backfire system on the EA81 engines like on the EA82? Or is there a way to make some wicked flames without engine damage?

I know this sounds dumb because of how old the car and engines are but do ea81 have rev-limiters anywhere in reline because it dosent seem to be before it. if so how do you make or buy one plus install??

My 1984 Subaru GL coupe is straight piped beginning at the catalytic converter and ending at the muffler. in between its got an electric cut out!!! The po-po don't suspect a thing!!!! and its now got only 127,221 miles on her!!!!!

id like to give a huge shout out to (hatchsub) for helping me find a a rear window gasket for my 1984 Subaru GL 1.8L 2 door coupe!! if you guys are out of options and cant find a window gasket at your local glass repair place or anywhere online in the U.S. then click on the link bellow. thanks again man!!! https://www.google.c...ry in australia

okay cool thanks man!!

mine is a 2 door sedan and its a 1984, but i don't know i'll do the measure it thanks. i must just suck at researching aha! ill also look at the site thank you. sorry for the hassle.

so it was not there any other ideas, places, or suggestions? : /

okay cool thanks i'll take a look and see if anything is still there, if not ill get back to you.

Cool thank you

Iv been looking around done my research but its not adding up I have rust under my rear window gasket and I can't seem to find anything anywhere. I even looked on goolge Japan and nothing came up still. I desperately need advice I'm using my mom's Tahoe while she's gone for the week on a trip soit leaves my dad and I some to get stuff done and it happend to be that I just stumbled across this thinking before hahaha my sylicon idea worked so I left it out and we had a typical Washington rain for litterly 18 hours...I was sorta worried and went to check in it and there was a pool in my trunk. Bottom line I need a gasket. Reaaaaly badly. The pictures below are over sprayed with some protection rust stuff that dad told me to use. So the rust holes are underneath the gasket itself. Thanks in advance, Ben

so id like to get new rims and make it so they are wider and taller but i want to know how much room i would have for this without rub spots, this includes how deep dish i can go on them. i would like this because its really hard to find are tiers in our size and if we do find them there almost as much as some 18's!!! also some sites that would have cool rims of course that are 4 x 140 bolt pattern because i have a 1984 Subaru GL 1.8L 2 door sedan base. i think my tire is 13 x 5 or 13 x 6. I was thinking i could go to a 14 x 7 or 15 x 7. thanks in advance, Ben

hahaha ya your really far im in Washington state near about 40 min from seattle

do you live near me?

okay so i am his son but obviously i still live with my parents so you would be able to meet my dad to!! but i live in university place WA!! (rain city Subie baby!! lol) so could i go to a place like home depot and get some type of rubber lining and use that as a gasket? it used to idle at around 25-45 maybe 50 psi now it idles at 0 to 5 psi. one other qestion would 14x7 rims fit on my car without rubbing....i want new ones because my stock tires are really expensive so i want to get more common wheels. the only place that or site that sells custom wheels with my bolt pattern (4x140) is diamond steelies. my name is Benjamin but you can call me Ben!!

okay so yes im talking about the piston rings thank you!! ...i have been Hooning around in it probably not what you want to hear but i am a car freak and have a car freak teen mojo/blood/brain...if you know what i mean. haha 1 so i ordered the Haynes manual and the how to keep your Subaru alive manual. thank you guys honestly the fact that people like this car and can relate to the feelings that i have for it is good enough for me!! plus its a good motivator for me! so my oil was not running that far up the dipstick in the beginning that's why i questioned it? it was only 3 inches max above where the full marker is. so i just need to remember put a full oil change 10W-40 in it and let it run? But for how long and in what psi range am i looking for specifically? if its different than all the other times i start it up on a normal bases? also if it is a full oil change should i take the filter and the pump itself off and check it before i run it on new oil? and i need to find a good reliable site of where to find the parts...including gaskets for my windows because i have a bad one on my back window and its leaking through my trunk. also i did fix the coolant hose lol or my friends did....they smelled "fruity stuff" and i really dident think anything of it hahaha!! of course i need to start small and progress on my work since i am ignorant of many things still.

so i heard that pcv valve is spring loaded? is this true? if so that would explain alot!! To answer your question it runs great! It is burning oil i believe because its all black on the dip stick and every time i pull it out for the first time after the engine has been shut off the oil is half way up the stick!!! another thing is that it would leak oil all over the hoses in between the oil cap and alternator, however it only came from one hose and that oil had to pass through the pcv valve to get all the way up. so that tells me that its being pushed by air(correct me if i am wrong), Its not as bad now you barley notice the oil...its just the smell. You can smell oil if you think about it and know that the problem is there...if that makes any sense. the oil pump does have a slight leak and the filter we need to figure out how to once and for all properly seal the o rings and gaskets. ya i already had that coolant hose experience(1 1/2 inch gash and internal gashes), that's actually what made me more concerned than i was before it happened. I think it might be the gasket or what ever surrounds the pistons, sorry i should know what that is i just cant think of it. All i know is that it wants the bigger psi build up but there is something that is escaping....air... still doesn't explain why there is so much crank case pressure, i could be missing something though. But my guess is as good as any other guys.

okay thanks, Its not the pcv valve because i took it off this weekend and it was fine. we had the oil seal redone towards the end of last year. so i don't know if thats it. i don't think its the oil gauge, plus the engine is a ea81 not an ea82 so will the oil gauge problem still pertain to this situation? I'm just worried because people have been saying that its just going to constantly have problems...which it basically has. Another thing is all my hoses are starting to get dry because of sitting in my grand parents garage for 8 years...so wouldn't i just be spending as much money as an engine swap would cost?.....i also took the tube of the valve cover and shined some light down the hole and there was black chunks of oil just at the beginning of the hole!! and further down it was pitch black oil. if its going to be cheaper to keep it and do all this stuff then thats cool, but i need a daily driver and still have fun in it, If you know what i mean. but if there are other engines that i can fit in there and they are more reliable and i can do it for a fair price and still have money left over then that would be sweet too!!

so my valve cover gasket or head gasket is pooped on my 1984 subie gl. on a cold start my oil will go up to 75 psi then 10-15 min later it will go down to 5 or 0 psi at idle but when i move it will only go to 25 psi max! i also have a crap ton of crank case pressure, so much in fact i could probably fill a small air compressor. Any ways what would be cheaper get an ej22 swap or try to fix the problem. i already looked at the pcv valve and it was not clogged. keep in mind that this ea81 engine has only 125,451 miles on it i think, i know it has 125k. Also keep in mind that i am a 17 year old teenager and i have a budget obviously... please tell me your thought or comments, especially money related. or what i can do in general....i really don't want to sell it because it was my dads very first car he ever bought like i said before and i want to be able to keep this little dream boat running thanks in advance you guys have been a big help!!

But if I were to maybe 3in 4in max

Well I want 15x7 rims and I don't think I would have to lower it at all then

oh and or some suspension for front and back to lower it.

okay i will look in into that, thanks. also i wanted new rims...is there a web site where i can find my 4x140 rims for really cheap...even if they have rust on them. i can fix them up i just want some wider deep dish steelies.

Lol thanks alot you guys!!!I'm going to actully do the opiste of what most gl owners would do and just get wider street tires and maybe lower it a tad...I think it will be the new look instead of raising it and big wheels blah blah blah

Well there is also air coming out of where you poor the oil in and its like a frekin air compressor. The engine has alot of pressure in it
