Turbone

A few pics from today. Thanks to all that showed up, had a great time (even tho I had a major wardrobe malfunction:rolleyes: ) Those that didnt.....you missed out.

We encourage ALL Subaru enthusiast to post their exploits. We just ask that you do it in a kosher, family orientated manner here. Its not to much to ask, really. Carry on

Bump for tomorrow! NOAA's forecast for the location we will be at, no lack of snow! http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick...52754306793213 07 Xmas tree run 08 run, no snow 09 run 2010 run

Shovels will definitely come in handy, mine will be in my Brat.

How much you looking to get Scott?

I used a early Imp clutch disc on my RX before I swapped everything. The pressure plate wont bolt up tho, but you can still use the disc

If theres no seepage and you have good compression, I wouldnt bother. How about the timing belt?

Ah I see, you didnt say if they were Subaru's.

After further research and reading, I dont think this thing is real. It could be a real good job of CGI, not sure yet

No timing belts on those.

I sent another email and got a quick reply. They will be thrown in with the full kits.

Hey Brian, this would be a gas

I got a reply back from Gates already. Part number for the tool is 91052.

Correct, I should have pointed that out originally. Yeah, you have plenty of room when the rad is removed. I just think using the FG for setting the guide plate clearance could be problematic. With the tool from Gates its just slap it in there and tighten the bolts. The guide plate keeps the belt from possibly jumping teeth.

Using a feeler gauge while the engine is still in the car is/would be a pita. When you tighten the bolts it moves the plate tighter, so the tool Gates provides means you dont need to use the feeler gauge, you just stick it in there and tighten the bolts. We really should have this available here :-\

Havent checked the website yet, but I would assume we do. Went to the corporate site and checked the part numbers, dont see anything listed that was in the TSB yet. Email sent to corporate, will post results.

Not sure if this has been discussed or not, but I got this link from a member here (unable to post it) But the info should pertain to all of the US. http://www.gates.com/australia/downloads/download_common.cfm?file=TSB_002_Correct_Timing_Belt_Clearance_is_Critical_On_Subaru_Engines.pdf&folder=news&view=australia&location_id=18884

Not able to check numbers right now, but try posting this over at the SVX forum. http://www.subaru-svx.net/forum/forumdisplay.php?s=&daysprune=30&f=5

Might need to adjust the TPS.

The lines from the compressor will not fit the 02 unless you use the condenser also. Ask me how I know.

Thats what I did when I installed a pair in my RX. Pretty easy job.

Forgot the 86 GL10 Turbo Wagon I got for free :-p Sitting in a backyard in east Seattle for a few years, it was pretty ugly. Qman helped me get it home and he was embarrassed to have it on his trailer. Before It cleaned up nicely and my late wife drove it for 4yrs.

I've had a few I've rescued, I'll start with my RX. Before After My 2nd SVX. Before After The 93 Imp I picked up. This was the most work I've put into a car yet to get it back on the road. Before After One of the EA81 coupes I had, no before pics tho. 89 XT S/R 4WD. Before After My first Brat, a 85. Before After The project I'm working on now is a 2002 Fozz. Hit in the front enought that it needed another core support, hood, bumper lights, etc. Before (Bumper and lights removed by PO, but you can see the damaged core support). New core support Put back together Right now it has a 98 hood, lights and bumper on it. But it will be getting replaced with 02 stuff soon.

Yup, same here.

One of the many coupes I have owned. Wish I had kept this one
