EA 81T into 81 Brat
On a scale of 1/10, about a 8/10. Lots of changes need to be made. The fuel system. The wiring harness and ECU. You will need to find a turbo x-member. And the EA82T is a tight fit into a Brat.

(Twin)Turbocharging an EA81
Carfreak attends the school where the car was built. I dont believe he actually owns the car. And GL with the project. I too have doubts, and will believe it when I see it

Yeah, I know what you meant. But Dr. RX did that late last month. He pulled his winter tires off and it snowed 3 days later :-p This is my 89 XT6, currently on loan to the guy that helped me do the swap. My 92 SVX is in the background.

All ER stuff for now. Hope to get EJ on the front and coil overs later. Along with the rear e-brake.

Sorry guys, but I could really care less about snow in Colorado

Took off my winter tires and put on the summer ones. I think we are done with winter Oh yeah, it got a 5 lug swap today HUGE kudos to Caboob for helping me out. It would have taken me a couple of days to do it by myself. But being the slavedriver he is, we got er done in about 6hrs. I was too tired and burned out to wash it, I'll get some better pics later. Also need to replace the clutch very soon. But I'm very happy with the swap.

Power drain 83 Coupe One More Time Might have found it
At the time, they were good parts. Just not made to last more than 20yrs.

Got into an accident in the RX
BFH usually works for me. And what happened to the brakes?

Power drain 83 Coupe One More Time Might have found it
Hmmm, it didnt have that problem before. Is the dash all hooked up?

What to do with an RX?
Its in between the turbo and the head. If you dont make sure to get it slipped on while installing the turbo, it can be rather frustrating to get on. Probably why they only put a spring clip on it and its not under much pressure.

1986 ea82t Subaru XT A/C work; Filter/Driers
I'm pretty sure the drier is Subaru generic. I had the system on my 89 XT6 recharged last year with R12 and its doing great. But I have no clue where the expansion valve is.

What to do with an RX?
Never owned/touched a Gen 1 mechanically yet :-p Lots of PB Blaster on the nuts. They like to freeze up from the heat. Getting the oil return line back on is a PITA, but the rest is straight forward.

what i do when i am not working on the car...
In that picture they look tiny. Like they would bend on the first jump :-\

Turbo question
Black hose goes to the pipe on the thermostat housing (Coolant return line) Red hose goes to the pipe that sticks up on the back of the head (Oil return) Braided line needs to go to a fitting on the back side of the head. Nice seats. I think you need bigger speakers in the back :-p
-
What to do with an RX?
Not really that much work. Weld TD04 up-pipe flange on EA82T up-pipe. Get TD04 DP and 2.5in exhaust. Get WRX IC and get creative with plumbing. And thats pretty much it. You can leave it there, or dump more $ into it. I wouldnt do any of this on a EA82T engine that has over 125K tho.
