Got an extra set I can buy? -Brian

No problem Subi... not sure if I'll be going either. Turns out this meet was posted on NASIOC and Iclub, so there will be too much testosterone for me to handle. I may show up tho, just to race. -Brian

Man that car is awesome looking! If you can, try to get some info on those rims and how they are fitted. I say you keep the car, just put another EA81 in it unless you can find someone to slap a EJ20 or 22. -Brian

Corky, i dont think you have seen the thread im speaking of. -Brian

Get a weber for your EA81 at the very least. And here is a write-up on the rear disc conversion: http://www.subaru4wd.net/old/New/mods/reardisk.html -Brian

Yeah, i recently posted on a thread there about a mini-meet here in Sac this week. By the responces I got, I dont think i'll be attending. Sucks since a couple of my friends will be there. -Brian

You can get rear disc brakes from almost any turbo EA82 Subaru. They are a direct bolt on, and there is no need for any modification to the braking system. Also, there is a napa part # for some brake lines, you maybe able to find them in steel. And I do not know of any manufacturer of strut bars for Brats, but it shouldnt be hard to come up with one. -Brian

RPM's webpage I believe. Race Place Motorsports is what RPM stands for... might want to google it. I know they have a page, just dont have it handy. -Brian

RPM indoor racetrack!! Print a 2-for-1 coupon and lets GO RACING!! I guess the Impreza kiddies are gonna have a mini-meet, and ive been invited by a couple friends. I need some old-school to show up so im not the only one. PM me for directions or something if you need to. Racing will cost $25 for each race... members only pay $20. -Brian

I'll try to make it. -Brian

DAmn you guys with lives.... Well, i still gotta come up there to do some work on the wagon, so dont make yourselfs TOO busy!! -Brian

OOO SNOW RUN!! By that time, i hope to have the wagon dismantled and the project complete. -Brian

Ah... well, it wasnt russ. Cant remember who. Maybe you said something else and I thought they would suck. I dunno. Im about to do a 5 lug swap, so I will have some 2WD XT front struts available soon. They are even KYB GR2's -Brian

Yeah, E it'd be great to do some wheelin with you!! But you gotta drive your brat, and you gotta wheel it as well. Jeremy... im sure we can find a free weekend somewhere in September. If not oh well. -Brian

My subie didnt like it when I drove into a granite rock. Rock was only exposed about 18", but I wasnt paying attention on a trail and it smacked my passenger side lower control arm. Hit it just right to bend the snot out of it, and caused alot of headache ever since. Other than that, the subie has taken all the beatings Ive given it. Never had one airborn but ive seen plenty of em get off the ground. Cant say I've seen every single on land without problem though. -Brian

From what i hear the coilover setup sucks and isnt worth the adjustablility (i believe it was Caleb who told me ) The 2WD XT will net you most of the parts you need. -Brian

Nobody has any part #'s or refferences to EA82 steering bushings? -Brian

Yeah, sounds like fun. Going to try not to break anything cause I still gotta use some bits and pieces. But, I will have my lifted wagon and JB will have his lifted brat. If you think you can follow us, lets go! I wont be able to do it till mid-September. -Brian

Going with 14" rims? Ive been thinking of getting a set of Kumho's for the next project... I'd need to find the same size as my coopers tho. Brat looks great. -Brian

Thats the largest hurdle, now theres nothing stopping you! 3" or 4" lift on this one Zap? -Brian

Ok guys, its time. Im tired of hearing noises when i brake, accelerate and turn. I figure since my car needs new bearings and CV joints, im just going to buy XT6 hubs and CV's, and get everything I need for the 5 lug swap. While im in there, i want to replace all the bushings I can reach. That includes steering and engine/tranny mounts as well. One thing I'd like to know, is if there are any bushings I should replace on the XT6 control arms? Also, does anyone have any part numbers for the steering bushings for the RX? I know WJM and some others had their hands on some -Brian

Downshift... no abs needed Other than that, you'll need to find the last 3 XT6's in the world with ABS (wherever they may be). -Brian

Uh... I think you mean Hail -Brian

Im jealous! -Brian

Are we supposed to be cleaning these things? -Brian
