West Coast Subaru Show #8 Hat thread
TheSubaruJunkie replied to Turbone's topic in Meet n' Greet. Your USMB Welcome Center
I have a hundred or so different fonts to choose from. Found a webpage with 6500 the other night and just went crazy. Can always add Mount Hood Oregon, 2006 or anything else we want around it.... just focusing on logo for this. -Brian -

You know what i think. Should also trim your front fender alittle too while your at it. -Brian -
Why is the hood and the rear gate still on? I say strip it and then jump it You could probably loose another 80+ pounds. Dont forget, those pesky windshields are heavy too. -Brian

High pitched whistle varies with rpm?
TheSubaruJunkie replied to mbrickell's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
If the engine has a clutch fan behind the radiator, check all the blades on that. If some are worn out or broke it may make funny noises. And throwout bearings like to whistle when they go out. Usually you can tell its a throwout bearing if the sound goes away with movement of the clutch peddle. -Brian -

I think those emblems with the wreath make it look like more of a VFW event instead of a Subaru event. Maybe if we incorporated something automotive into the design, like a piston, a steering wheel... something? Those all look like real bad knockoffs of the subaru logo, not a custom WCSS logo. -Brian -

Help! Looking at buying a 1984 Subaru
TheSubaruJunkie replied to excalibur5's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
A 2WD Subaru that needs a clutch is worth, at most, $700. If your looking for a good subaru, keep an eye on Craigslist. Subies can be had real cheap in our area The '85 engine you pulled is completly different than the one in that '84. And is easier to pull. -Brian -
Help! Looking at buying a 1984 Subaru
TheSubaruJunkie replied to excalibur5's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
$2200 is way too much for that car. Your looking at a $1200 car at most. I paid $1100 for my 1984 GL Wagon, 4wd basic options. That was at a local dealer who had it listed for $1400, which i thought was too high. And after taxes and dealer fees that $2200 is more like $2500, $2700, which can get you a good used Legacy or Impreza in the '91-96 range. Oh, and where in NorCal are you? Im in Sacramento. -Brian oh, and a clutch kit for that car will probably be under $130 after tax. Installing them on these old EA81's are a snap. -

Primary event is the show and shine, takes place on Saturday around noonish... then there's an awards event afterward where we'll have dinner. Plenty of raffles and stuff as well. Last year i spent $20 in raffle tickets and made out like a bandit. I sure hope this year there are as many cool prizes, i want a SPT barstool for my garage -Brian
