dumb 4wd question
TheSubaruJunkie replied to SubaRust II's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Use your pushbutton on loose grade. And use it at any speed you'd like Ive cruised freeway speeds in 4WD in Alaska. -Brian -
only serious replies please
TheSubaruJunkie replied to SubaSkeet's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Thats wierd, ive heard 2 people now complain about this. Its very un-tony-like. Maybe Adam NDJ can stop by his house or something. I know he's local to Tony. I havent tried calling, but I have his cell. If nothing becomes of this I will call him and try to get status. -Brian -
Check your junkyards too or search the yellow pages for a Peugeot dismantler. -Brian

EA82T Exhaust questions
TheSubaruJunkie replied to TheSubaruJunkie's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Didnt think so. Not sure if the bends would be the same or not, maybe i'll just have to lay them next to eachother and try it for myself. -Brian -
EA82T Exhaust questions
TheSubaruJunkie replied to TheSubaruJunkie's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Yeah WJM, everything but the cross over pipe. I was thinking of using the turbo to so that I can use the downpipe. The exhaust is custom. I think its cat-back so maybe I dont need to use the downpipe. -Brian -
Anyone here know if I'd have any chance of using a custom exhaust from a '92 Legacy Turbo on a RX's EA82T? Was just thinking about something. -Brian

Bad JuJu to re-use axle spring pins?
TheSubaruJunkie replied to 88HatchMonster's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Ive had no problem re-using them. Along with the castle-nut and the cone washers as well. Seems the CV's I get only come with the axle. Only a few have come with the castle nut and almost none have come with new spring pins. Your old one should be fine, as long as its not bent or crushed. -Brian -
Lowering an XT.... cheap...

You oughta lower the front alittle more. -Brian -
What happened to my dash lights?
TheSubaruJunkie replied to mschafe's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Just search every fuse in your fuse box and see if any of them have blown. I had that problem once except they quit on me durring a drive at night... and freaked me out. I found that it was in fact one of my fuses that had blown. -Brian -
http://phpwebsite.appstate.edu/ Check that out Eric. Might be alittle over your head but what it is, is a Content Management System for webpages. Lets you activly edit, add and remove data from your webpage all via the web. You setup user's like you would with the message board, or the gallery etc... and then those users have access to changing the information your webpage has. I sent a link to Tex. Im going to be installing it on USMB.net to test it, and might end up using it myself. They have a live demo on their page that you can play with. It looks pretty versitile, oh and did i mention it was free? -Brian

I have 700MB of space that is unused becuase we switched the USMB Gallery to this new platform. If you guys need space, let me know and you gotit. I agree with Tex, the Gallery software is the only way to host multiple images and keep them organized in a easy to view way. If you look at www.subaru4wd.net now, you'll notice most of the links point to gallery folders cause i got too lazy and 98% of my page is mostly pix anyhow. Jared has a great page put together with trails and ratings. It takes alot of mantime to upkeep a page like that though and I agree with Eric on revieling the secret fishin holes. Although you guys got a TON of great pictures and footage that needs to be seen Also, the hatchpatrol page will probably boost your Video sales about 300% Eric -Brian

If you'd like, i can help setup a gallery like i have on USMB.net. Subarutex uses the same gallery software so he could probably do it as well. As far as actual web design, i dont think i'll have time to help with anything like that. I can help come up with graphic logos and edit images if you'd like. Email me Eric if you need further assistance or to swap idea's. -Brian

Tabeguache [short video] [pics too]
TheSubaruJunkie replied to singletrack's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Thats some great footage and great photos!! Looks like a ton of fun. -Brian -
The lift acts like a body lift in ways. You unbolt the struts from the top. You unbolt the engine crossmember and you extend the steering linkage. In the rear you drop the diff hanger and you drop the torsion bar, then you add extensions for the rear shocks. The CVs retain the propper angle if done correctly. The engine is dropped 3" along with the Tranny. If you lift the car more than 3-4" then you need to think of shift linkages and extend brake lines etc. I believe the EA82's even have a tranny crossmember that is dropped as well. -Brian

Vids of older turbo Subarus?
TheSubaruJunkie replied to mschafe's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
I have video of Soobme's turbo EA82 off-road with me http://usmb.net/gallery/albuo73 -Brian -
Yesterday morning i woke up, and drove my car home from a friends house. Its a 30mile drive, and the car drove great. No problems. Mind you, it was raining and its one of our 1st rainfalls here in California. I get home and park it, then I go out later in the afternoon to head to my parents house. As soon as I pull out of the driveway and head down the street I feel the car bucking and backfire, so i lay off the gas and it goes back to normal. No stalling. So I drive off, and feather the throttle. Im able to drive the car just fine, as long as Im feathering the throttle. If i give it too much gas it cuts out and bucks, backfires and doesnt want to drive. Seems to only do it if the engine is under load, or hard acceleration. At a stand still I can rev the engine to 6k no problem. If Im in gear and lightly accelerate it will go to 6k no problem, but heaven forbid if I want to actaully get up and go... any hard acceleration and the car just cuts out on me. I spoke with Ryan and he suggested my fuel filter. Once i thought about it, it made sence so I bought a new filter. The car drove better for about 1/4 mile on its test drive, but the problem came back. As soon as I got home I swapped the Diamond coilpack for the stock one to see if it was the coilpack. On that test drive the car was able to accelerate from 1st to 2nd to 3rd no problem... but as soon as I shifted to 4th the problem re-appeared and now its back no matter what. Im kinda stumped. Hardy and Scott say to check the plugs (i havent yet) but they're new, no more than 2000miles. I find it odd that this problem would appear out of the blue, and wonder if maybe its related to the weather. Anyone have anything like this happen before? -Brian

Wow!! SCORE!! Why would someone just let all those subies get covered in weeds like that? Makes me wonder how many more undescovered goldmines there are out there? -Brian

None of the images are showing for me. -Brian

Definatly.... neither of these forums will see enough traffic to grant them their own space. Maybe we should have a EA81 and EA82 forum... or how about a 2WD and 4WD forum. hell, why dont we just create a forum for EVERY horrizontally opposed engine class there is. -Brian
