Turbone

It looks like the Auto X is being held some where else and the mudpit is on site. I would assume the mudpit will be available for both days. But I am assuming. A Staff Member can verify if this is correct.

Kudo's for wanting to fix up a old school sedan. But I'm a little confused as to why you want to put on/in all the new gen stuff? Arent you trying to make it different? Instead of the cookie cutter newgens out there? Putting look alike Lego door cards, etc is what I mean. I dont have a problem with stuff under the hood/chassis, but when your going to be seeing something from a visual perspective, thats different. Do you see where I'm coming from?

Congrats. You certainly have your hands full now

Well, get r done! I've have 3 cars to get ready, you only have 1! :-p

I only live a couple miles away.......

Its definitely sounding more like a harness problem now. I had a problem something like this when I was swapping engines in/out a few times on my RX. The 2 big plugs that connect the main harness to the manifold and engine were not tight, making for a poor connection.

Theres a couple of trannies from the later 80's that have a locking center diff. The RX had a 5spd dual range with locking center diff and the XT6 5spd had a single range with locking center diff. If you plan on welding the rear diff and running it in 4wd on the pavement, bad things are going to happen. But seeing how you like working on cars, this will not bother you at all :-p And I would love to see pics of the NOS setup you have

What kind of shape is the strip in? Removing it would entail drilling out rivets and filling holes. But if the strip can be repainted, I would keep it. Does the topper match the new paint? Wouldnt take to much more paint to shoot that also. There was someone on the Board besides Mick that was doing Brat decals. Not sure if he was doing Gen 1 or not. I'll do a search and see what I come up with. Contact Pooparu... http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=86242&highlight=Brat+decals

Are you coming to WCSS10 this year? And if so, are you bringing the Brat?

Yeah, anything over 3 and its considered a "problem" :-p

Wow, it looks like the real fanatics were all born in July! Happy B-Day

You have a excuse. How was the reunion?

Depends on the size of the lure. And I'm stopping there

Wow, if the catching is that good over there, I might have to make a special trip. Wheres the honey hole at Spark? :-p

I have the intake you need. And I have a gutted DP also. I think I need to be in the Vendors section

Have you tried changing this yet?

If you go to Google Maps (use Sattelite) and locate the Fairgrounds, look directly east. Theres lots of trails from the looks of it.

Funny looking Wagon, is that chop job? :-p

I guess that makes me twice as smartrump roast

I would either suspect the coil or the disty. Usually a jumpy tach means the bushing is going bad and the disty shaft is getting sloppy. Zukiru, I dont think your tach is "jumpy". I would say it increases proportionatly when the clutch slips.

I cant remember that far back And I'm a ripe 54yrs old today. Just wish it didnt have to fall on a Monday cause it didnt start out all that great Connie, thanks for the B-Day present (if that was what it was), it came in the mail today :-p

Yeah, Edrach has/had a set that he sent out and had polished up. They look very nice when they are shined up.

Better to do it, that way you learn how. Sooner or later you will be doing it. Upgrade, bad turbo, etc. Get some PB Blaster and soak the nuts/bolts. Remove the oil line on top, then the hard water line on the side. Remove all the nuts holding the turbo to DP. Remove the nuts holding turbo to up-pipe. Theres a bracket that holds the turbo to the head, need to disconnect that. Then the whole thing should come out. The return line for the oil should just slide right off, but the water inlet will stay attached. This is where you need to use abusive language :-p It will have a double clamp on it too, so twice the fun!

I'll see what I can find in the manual, but I've always removed the turbo to get to that line :-\
