Spiffdafied wheel
TheSubaruJunkie replied to Scoobywagon's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
That looks good. I hate dealing with rust when it gets that bad. It reminds me of when I had to take And turn it into Alot of sanding, boy were my arms tired The rim should look a thousand times better when they're mounted to the car. -Brian -

Hey....its all white now!
TheSubaruJunkie replied to WJM's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Is it the same off-white as our Faded RX's get? When I painted my grill white, it doesnt completly match the hood. And this was posted yesterday, plenty of time to get pix -Brian -

New Weber Adapter--Wrong Bolt Pattern?
TheSubaruJunkie replied to Bratenstein's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Take that adapter to the yard with you, find a EA81 with a 2BBL carburator and unbolt it. Make sure that adapter bolts up, and if it does... grab that intake and take it home with you. You can swap the manifolds no problem. Its not impossible that Redline could have sent you a EA82 Adapter (OHC) and if thats the case, the bolt patterns would be too large. -Brian -
Latest mod.... at LEAST 50hp :)
TheSubaruJunkie replied to TheSubaruJunkie's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Hey... it could be worse, I could have NOS stickers on my car. And if it were girly, i'd have Backstreet Boys and N'Sync stickers on my car. Pantera is far from girly my friend :cool: -Brian -

Im going to design my own USMB decals. No offence, but I dont particularly like the ones floating around right now. I may just put Subaru4wd.net decals on and link from my page. Not quite sure yet. -Brian -

TheSubaruJunkie replied to TheSubaruJunkie's topic in Subaru Retrofitting

I have a Metallica & NIN decal too. I didnt want to clutter the car, i think these will do for now. The metallica one is an oldskool design, but its from the Hetfield design that was included with the box sets. Just metallica in writing, no skull. I'll find a place for them -Brian -

EA82T Intercooler Qs
TheSubaruJunkie replied to [HTi]Johnson's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
I can hear my BPV working, i like it better than the idea of having an obnoxious BOV. I used (3) 2 3/8" I.D. 90 degree rubber elbows and some 2 3/8" O.D PVC Pipe. Im having problems with the pipe staying together under boost, so Im going to re-do everything with some mandrel bends using 2 3/8" O.D. Stainless Steel. I'll also invest in some silicon couplers and maybe a silicon reducer. The turbo outlet is 1 3/4" O.D. IIRC The reducer im using goes from 1 7/8" I.D to 2 3/8" I.D. wich fit perfectly on the 90 degree comming from my turbo. -Brian -
I'll be recieving one shortly. Before I get in over my head, I thought I'd check here to see who knows what about em? I dont know anything other than it was used by a friend of mine for a race car of his. Until he upgraded to a Legacy, now he is going to let me use it on my RX. -Brian

I just bought a 81 brat!!!!!!
TheSubaruJunkie replied to kingwill's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
I saw that on craigslist as well. Thats a very sweet score, those rims alone are probably worth $300. -Brian -
CV joint, wheel bearings or what?
TheSubaruJunkie replied to spideyz's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Keith. If the problem has just started, then chances are its your CV joints. Bearings tend to show signs of failure before making clunking or clacking sounds. If you start to feel vibration at higher speeds, then i would call napa for a reman While your Doing the CV, might as well do the bearings -Brian -
loyale wheel question puegeot wheels
TheSubaruJunkie replied to fgug's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
The 15's will fit just fine w/out a lift. To keep your speedo correct i would advise getting a set of 195/50R15's or 205/50R15's. My RX has 195/50's on it, and they look great. No rubbing, no modifications, straight bolt on. Do make sure you get the peugeot lug nuts as well, it is vital that you use those with the 15" alloys you are about to get. -Brian -
I plumbed my BPV the other day. Just had time to snap some shots. It looks pretty crude, but it's all functional and that was my goal. THe car actually performs better than it did before (which was another goal). Version 2.0 will be stainless steel mandrel bends with a couple silicone couplers. You can see my epoxy on the bottom of the BPV, it came apart... i'll need to fabricate a gasket to seal it better and find a different way to attatch it. Stay Tuned..... -Brian

You betcha Jared. If your traveling to WCSS, stop by and i'll follow you like I did on your way back from WA. Just dont get us pulled over again -Brian

Intercooling for Dummies. (I did it)
TheSubaruJunkie replied to TheSubaruJunkie's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Yeah, i will actually have the mechanic here at my work weld a bead around all the tube. Will be alot cheaper than having a shop roll them. -Brian
