The bottom rails need to be swapped. The passenger seat is easy, but the drivers is a pain because its height adjustable. You will need to drill out some rivets to get the rails off it and put on the GLF seat.

Theres a few members from the EU on the XT Board that have done 5 lug swaps. Lazer is the screen name of one guy and he's from Norway. http://subaruxt.com/forum/memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=416 He might be able to help you find the parts needed for the swap. What I find really interesting about this RX is that it has a factory electric sunroof. Only the GL-10's got those here,

That comes up with a invalid selection I've always called this part a ECU, the 86/87/88 book calls it a EGI. But the numbers are not in my book. I have one from a 89 XT6 and can ship.
-
First of all, not sure what a EGI board is on a XT6. Secondly, this should be posted in the Wanted forum. And third......you might get a better response over at http://subaruxt.com/forum/index.php?sid=fdc55b7d302509f45a96d63d070f10d1 I just looked for the number in my parts book and theres no listing for that part number.

Theres a couple of people in Spokane that might be willing to help out. Baccaruda has a swapped EJ Wagon. Monstaru has a EJ swapped Hatchback. In the Retrofit Forum, theres a lot of info on the swap.
-
Usually only happens to the turbo models. Theres a few members, me included, that have encountered this. Look for a hole in the location stated above.
-
If you are talking about in between the DP and turbo, there is supposed to be one. Its a 2 layer metal sandwich type.

You are not getting it tight enough. I've had the same problem. Lock up the engine, use locktite and herf on that sucker. -

This will not end well. And with that, I'm done. -
1986 XT Turbo Blown head gasket (help)
Turbone replied to tysree's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
The engine in your XT is a EA82T. If you do a search you will find that they are very temperamental and sensitive to cooling issues. A rebuilt is also pretty expensive. Up to $2k, but you get a worry free engine (if your cooling system is 115%) Another option is to swap a EJ22 in it. Theres lots of info here related to that in the Retrofitting Forum. -
1986 XT Turbo Blown head gasket (help)
Turbone replied to tysree's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
You might be looking for a new engine. Or at least a major tear-down. Never use crap like that in a Subaru, it gums up the whole works. You need to ask questions before doing something you are not sure about. Thats why we are here, to help. We have a few members in your area, I think one of them is a qualified mechanic (Hondasucks). -

If we knew your location, someone close by might be able to stop in and take a look at it. If it was a HG, it would overheat and smoke. You need to pinpoint the leak before digging into the HG's. -
I look forward to it all year. I (and friends) work hard getting my cars ready for the Show. Maybe if we pick 2 locations, North and South, and alternate every year things would be easier to organize? Thurston ORV Park for the North. Hood River for the South.
