the spring on the clutch pedal is a helper spring. Not all the years had them. After doing the clutch cable on my wagon last year it was stiff as hell. I removed that big ugly spring from the clutch pedal and all was better. As far as what was said above about it being the Pressure plate's jub to return the clutch fork to the 'home' position. thats not entirely true.. if you have a HH (which all 4wd manual soobs do) the return is built in to the HH.. My car was an auto and I opted to not install the HH when I converted to manual. even with a brand new clutch and PP, a return spring on the fork was still required. I knew this in advance however because that little tidbit of knowledge had been passed down to me from someone who knows 10 times more about subarus than I will ever know

Its easier to just say...search n00b!! However.. you want more power? Get a turbo EA82T, EJ20G.. what ever.. get aturbo..Be prepared to rewire everything from the dash forward

Want a list?

something like that What this poor guy doesn't know is that I have some XT suspension in my garage.. waiting for a home... Oh well...

That was exactly the first word that came to mind while reading this.. followed immediately by 'holy ****! he's going to get himself killed'

bump.. yoohoo.. anyone home?

No hard proof.. just a glimmer of a memory of this coming up a year or two ago and some actual information being provided *shrug*

Its Australian.. Anyone else know more?

Yes.. not as good as welded, but better than open by a long shot

RXs and wagons that came with FT4wd 5 speed(but note that not all of said wagons had the LSD)

That thing has about the same top speed as the average EA81

If it makes you feel any better, I got my first one in Bremerton and it was 2wd

4 inch lift = stretched fule lines..its possible something came undone during your initial drive.. also check the wires to the pump as the lift may have stretched them as well.

Thanks guys, Any suggestions on where to get a helicoil kit for a good price.. and what size I may need.. Oh and can you buy extra inserts seperately..just in cae

Well, Now I've gone and done it. Was torquing down my heads on my EA82T. Got to the final TQ stage (47ft/lbs). Damn headbolt stripped. Ripped the threads right out of the block. Am I screwed? Do I just toss this block in the dumpster and hunt down another one?I'm so friggin irritated right now. This motor was supposed to be done and in this weekend. Also, is it worth using that gasket again, ir is it screwed too?

Eh.. mine are wired to come on with the key.. switch borked and I was in the middle of a long trip.. temporary fixed that has worked well for over a year:)

Top of the block, behind the intake manifold.. A little left of center.

Sorry bud. Car was crushed.. Motor is in my garage.. Tranny was stolen.. only thing else that got pulled was the grill.

Ooh! Ooh!..I'll be there!! If I leave now.... One question.. is the PB 5 speed from a turbo car?

My FSM says to split the case.. Headgaskets.. Inexpensive is a relative thing....Be too cheap and you get crap and end up doing it again.. Try the felpro permatorques.. no retorquing and I believe they are about $40

Elucidate please.

The NASIOC guys are having a dyno day on the 26th at the shop 10 minutes from me.. I'm trying to get my car back together and get the day off work so I can attend.

You're here. Post a WTB in the market place.. Or try CCR in denver.

Right on! How does it feel to know you have single handedly made the world a better place?
