  1. Ah, very true... for some reason i thought he had an 88. Go for the celica adapter then -Brian
  2. Look on ebay for a Nissan Sentra cone filter and adapter. Thats what I used, and it bolts right onto our MAF's. Definatly dont let your engine overheat! That is a sure way to kill the motor. -Brian
  3. Up in the top right corner, there are 4 links. Home, Forum, USRM & Photos. The USRM is our Ultimate Subaru REpair Manual. Check it out, i'll give you a direct link to the ECU stuff, but theres a ton of info stored in there. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=49918 Save yourself $85. -Brian
  4. Welcome to the club. Get used to being razzed, imagine what all the jeepers tell us when we show up on the trails with one of those things lifted running swampers. Its even worse than what your co-workers say. -Brian
  5. Already got my time off. I'll pre-register when i have the extra cash. I know it doesnt sound like alot, but im soaking every free penny i have into my hatch. I will make it to the show, if i have to i'll pay at the door. Chances are i'll pre-reg, is there a cutoff date for that? -Brian
  6. Our cars dont really have a transfer case. It wont do any harm to run in RWD. -Brian
  7. Not many aftermarket parts are readily available for these cars. But, being a turbo, you can adapt almost any aftermarket part for other turbos to work on our cars. my RX includes: Saab 900 Intercooler Saab 900 Bypass valve (you dont want to use a Blow off valve, use a bypass valve instead) Go Fast Bits manual boost controller Subaru High Comp Pistons Magnacore 8mm race wires Others have installed Fuel Pressure Regulators, aftermarket pumps and some have even gone as far as installing aftermarket injectors. SubaruTex had done some pretty extensive modifications to his RX, but then he sold it off. WJM has also gone above and beyond with his RX... but he keeps blowing them up. I myself just finished rebuilding my motor, and I dont feel like doing it again, so ive removed my boost controller and kept with the stock turbo. Stick around, and you will learn alot about that motor of yours. -Brian
  8. Awesome, thanks Mike. I may have to paint some fenders too... so i will definatly go get me some of that paint. Im also gonna be getting the Kumho's for these rims. Maybe I should install my WRX scoop and make a twin of your Hatch? Do you still have that thing? Any chance we'll see it at this years show? -Brian
  9. It would be best to contact them. We wouldnt know. -Brian
  10. Yeah, you retain the EA81 4wd selector. But the rest is EA82 stuff. I thought there were 1pc EA82 shafts, but i could be wrong. I Got a PM from Jerry that cleared things up a bit. Hopefully Jibs can get everything wrapped up, tired of seeing his brat sitting in the garage -Brian
  11. Sounds like the AAV was disturbed. It resides ontop of the thermostat housing. -Brian
  12. Cool, so it looks like we gotta drill a hole. No worries, just thought things should bolt up. Thanks Guys, -Brian
  13. I got spare axles IM not worried about it. I think i'll put the LSD in when i put the lift on tho. Im lazy :-p -Brian
  14. Im gonna be putting my 3/3 lift on my hatch. IM wondering if RX springs will add an inch in effect making my car seem like a 4/3 lift? Has anyone put RX springs on their EA81? Do they fit the EA81 struts well? Also, would this effect my camber? I dont need to be eating away the outside of my front tires. -Brian
  15. Also check and make sure your ignition coil isn't starting to die. That and your spark plugs are good and not creating a short somewhere. -Brian
  16. Ok guys, who's done the swap? Jibs is doing it to his brat and we're having some problems bolting the shifter up to the body. We got the EA82 shifter and all, using jerry's kit. There doesnt seem to be any holes in the body to bolt the shifter mount to. What did you guys come up with? -Brian
  17. Use a EA81 Auto. I hear they're better than EA82's. -Brian
  18. I cant read a thing, even if I do download the images -Brian
  19. We're trying to use EA82 stuff for the shifter... but the mount for the actual shifter lever has no way to bolt up to the EA81 body. And he's using the EA81 flywheel, so i hope those washers work right oh.. and do you HAVE to use the 2 piece EA82 driveline? Would a 1 piece EA82 driveline work. He's doing this to a brat. -Brian
  20. Looks like you had fun. You should invest in a copy of PhotoShop and crop those images down. Even with my 21" monitor im scrolling all over the place to view them. Could only imagine the poor saps stuck with 800x600 res. -Brian
  21. Russ start your own thread about your stupid camaro... And Phiz... the Subie seems to handle alittle better in RWD mode. Not near as good as my RX with AWD, but better than FWD. Cant argue the better gas milage, i averaged 20mpg on my trip to Reno and back. -Brian
