Me and some of the locals have already thought about having a WCSS here. Most likely in Northern Cali, north of Redding or the redding area. Zap, i can do alittle more work but I gotta find the time. I Have to get ready for a poker tourney tonight, so I wont have a logo done until tomorrow at the earliest. -Brian

Well, whats in my signature is what is done. I have ALOT of toys in the garage for both cars. Things for the RX that have yet to be installed: Saab 900 Intercooler Saab 900 B.P.V Things for my WAgon that were waiting installation: (3) Electric Air Pumps, wired and plumbed to run a single line to an air tank. I have set no deadlines, because anyone who knows me well... knows im a huge procrastinator. I'd like to have my Intercooler installed before the WCSS, but if I end up getting another wagon I will want to have a new lifted rig for the Show... if I keep up the pace im at now, i will have neither done -Brian

EA82t Crossover pipes Qs
TheSubaruJunkie replied to [HTi]Johnson's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
This thread has made me realize just how badly I want a new header... and a new turbo... oh... and then I can install my IC -Brian -
I have to put my lift kit in a EA81 wagon that has power steering. The problem is my wagon that is lifted has manual steering. Whats the difference between the two, and can I modify my current steering extension or will i need to replace it? -Brian

Turbos Turbos Turbos

Good save, by editing your signature will I have a friend with a VF11 for sale. If it wasnt good, i was going to have it rebuilt. I figure its got to be better than the EA82 turbo and I dont want something as big as the TD04. Maybe i'll try to find a good EA82 turbo just to keep things simple. -Brian -
Now that i know what we're lookin for, i will do some work on my logo a bit. As far as T-Shirts, will this be going on mugs by chance? I could use a #7 to add to my #6. Do we want black & white, or can i experiment with colors as well? Eric: I avoid talking on my phone at all costs. Mostly because its a cellphone, but I preffer to type over talk any day (can go back and correct stupid things I say... 99% of which no one ever see's ) -Brian

EA81T Failed Smog: High HC @ Idle...
TheSubaruJunkie replied to TheSubaruJunkie's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
3 guys at work told me (after i told them this story) that they used that can of "Guaranteed to pass" stuff, and it all worked for them. I could use that, but the car needs a tune-up real bad from sitting so long, so I think that will be the route I will take. -Brian -
Turbos Turbos Turbos
TheSubaruJunkie replied to Phaedras's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Thanks for the clarification Will. Does anyone have a list of other turbos that will bolt to EA82T Headers? I dont mind getting a new downpipe and whatnot... but I would preffer to keep the stock EA82T up pipe. -Brian -
New Lift Kit on the market
TheSubaruJunkie replied to Shadyirishmen's topic in Products for your Subaru
I remember that wagon on the front page. Is that you and your wagon? Saw you at the WCSS6 when you rolled in, then i remember seeing the car again in the horse corral. Looks like thats a pretty capable rig. I didnt notice any other cars on your page... how many people are running your lifts? You know... there are other 15" rims out there that you can use I wouldnt be doing too much off-roading with t-type rims. -Brian -
New Lift Kit on the market
TheSubaruJunkie replied to Shadyirishmen's topic in Products for your Subaru
Im sure there is some sort of patent on the BYB lift and PK so far is the only one who has rights to copy it. I hope you didnt just remove that BYB kit and create a mock-up byb kit :\ I'll check out your page soon. -Brian -

Nice, i didnt know the VF11 would bolt into a EA82T's up-pipe Now i know what turbo to get. I wonder if it will be too much turbo for the EA82. I want to have all this planned out and completed so I can decide what kind of exhaust to get as well. -Brian -
EA81T Failed Smog: High HC @ Idle...
TheSubaruJunkie replied to TheSubaruJunkie's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
The owner wont touch the car. Thats why I had to take it for its smog test, he didnt want to. Im going to go back and do a compression test on the engine. If it passes all 4 cyl, i will give him $250 for it (maybe lie and say its leaking in cyl3 and offer him $100) This car is in an apt complex in the projects. The couple who own it... well... they're crackheads. I cant let the car stay there or it will be towed, i think i'll go back saturday and get it. If it doesnt pass... I'll leave it in their name and park it somewhere (just kidding of course) -Brian -
EA81T Failed Smog: High HC @ Idle...
TheSubaruJunkie replied to TheSubaruJunkie's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Im thinking since its only 16 over, it wont take much at all to get it to pass. Im going to let it sit with the current owners for a week, then call them and if its still available i will offer like $200 for the car (they want $650 currently). WHen its in my possession i'll tune it up. -Brian -
EA81T Failed Smog: High HC @ Idle...
TheSubaruJunkie replied to TheSubaruJunkie's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
It DID idle smooth at 900rpm. Then after the smog tech parked it, and I got in it to drive away... i noticed the idle wouldnt go above 650rpm and it had a stumble in it. Like it was miss-firing on one cylinder or something. -Brian -
The smog tech was clueless when i asked what it could be. But it didnt fail by much. It passed everything at idle except for HG, and passed everything at 2500rpm (even passed HG at 2500rpm). I know we have a few smog techs and smog savy members, I'm hoping its something simple. Here are the results: TEST----RPM----HC (MAX)---HC (Measured)---CO (MAX)---CO (Measured) Idle:-----981-------120--------136(failed)-------1.00---------0.22 2500rpm------------150--------55---------------1.20---------0.29 The car has been sitting for a while. Im trying to get it to pass so I can buy it from the previous owners (who are absolutly NO Help at all). -Brian
