Im down... you got 4WD in your car yet? -Brian

Got one. 3" with 26" Cooper Discoverer's. I'd like to see this place, is there still alot of snow up there? -Brian

Oh yeah!! Just the type I like... I'll find a way to get through it. -Brian

how about a lift? then can I make it? -Brian

Is your car a 2 door hatchback, EA81?? or a EA82? Do you know? If its a EA81, that 88 might not work for a 4wd conversion. -Brian

Remember Dave, when we drove to the Carson City PnP and it was closed. Then drove to Sparks to find that one closed too? I can get thursday or friday off if I get some notice ahead of time. -Brian

no no no no... you got it all wrong, you have to use CTRL+ALT+SARCASM -Brian

I put a 3" PK lift on my rig, and it took a weekend by myself. Im located about 2 hours from you, and could manage to make my way up there to help if you need it. Also, PM me and we can setup a run through some trails I know of. Is your car already 4WD? -Brian

YARD RUN!!!!!!! I'll keep an eye on PnP.com and check for the next 1/2 price weekend. Im always up for a meet, im 2 hours south in Sacramento. Kid: Do you know where Kyburz is? -Brian

im about 2 hours south of there. A buddy of mine, NV Zeno, just got a place there not too long ago. I usually drive up there to hit the junkyard, but i hear there are some trails out that way as well. -Brian

It would be easy to put Caleb in with those girls... but caleb and his car would be alittle harder. -Brian

Flux Capacitors are hard to come by. I used to know how to make them, but I got tired of slipping and falling off of my toilet. -Brian

Russ is right, the mechanic i met that im taking my car to is very qualified, and i can see what it must go through to get certified... expecially to get certified by california. -Brian

Here in CA, they failed me on my Smog cause i "modified my air intake" by cutting a hole in the lid. Easy repair, just got a new one... but just thought i'd give you a heads up. -Brian

Probably just casting marks. I remember seeing the same thing on my EA81, and thought they were cracks. Turns out they werent. -Brian

The roof rack was mady by Tony as well. I dont need a rear tire carrier because the roof rack has a spot for the tire. -Brian

Cool, did you guys repair the hanger??? or just replace it? I myself would suggest a stock hanger thats been re-enforced, and use lift blocks to drop the hanger mounts down a couple inches. -Brian

Expecially comming from someone like SubaruBrat. But he's right. All of tony's work is 110%. I couldnt believe the stuff that was rolling out of his shop. Too bad I already have all the accessories I need, cant think of anything else for tony to build. -Brian

SubaruBrat: I want the MPFI, im sick of Carb's... reason behind this entire idea is to keep the EA81 and its OHV, but dump the Hitachi and carb idea all together. CIS: Thanks for the support, i wont be needing any parts... i should be able to get everything from here. I was thinking the same, my roomates EA82T had a leaking exhaust that didnt provide 100% pressure to the turbo. It ran like crap, but still ran... so im thinking the EA81T with N/A pistons should work out just fine. And also... why is everyone suggesting to use EA82 parts? Is it needed? Why cant I just use the same MPFI Intake and parts from the EA81 (minus the plentum). If EA81T and EA82T injectors are identical, than this should be easier than i assumed. -Brian

Is this too clean to be considered a trashwagon?? -Brian

Awesome Craig! thats something i'll need to remember. -Brian

Why cant i just use the MPFI intake? Also, arent the EA81T pistons dished? I'd want N/A pistons to make up the CR. Also, im dreaming of putting an aftermarket cam to help bring the power into the lower revs. But thats not a neccessity. -Brian

I WANT TO USE THE EA81!! I preffer the OHV over OHC. And since this is going to be an off-road rig, i dont want turbo whatsoever. If i remove the boost with the turbo, will the EA81T ECU start to freak out? or will the added compression with the 1600cc pistons ballance things out? -Brian

Telephone poles dont hold a CHANCE against my sube anymore Tony also had a hood for me, i left it behind. I kinda like the crinkle in the corner, reminds me of what happens when toyota's get in the way, and reminds the telephone poles they need to step back when they see me commin. -Brian

Craig, thats exactly what I wanted to hear. Garner... i dont want carburation, timing belts, or the hassle of swapping fuel lines, ecu, etc. I know how rare EA81T's are, do you know how long ive been looking for one to do this project with. The only real work that'll need to be done is replace the piston's. Everything else is just removal of un-needed equipment. Miles, there are only 3 types of EA81's. 1bbl, 2bbl and MPFI Turbo. -Brian
