Attention: Transfer case weak link found
Spoken from a expert I think the Nissan T-Cases are tougher than the running gear on our Soobs. Just dont get to wild with the go peddle and it should be alright (for a while)

Low power in 4WD
Check the rear diff oil. If its low it could be causing some binding. Same with the tranny.

I can't believe this-- beware 56k carnage enclosed
Heres a replica on Craigslist. Blue 84 Wagon Has a big price on it too. Maybe contact them and get some pics of it.

Attn: Paul or other people interested in my gen 1 4wd wagon
Does it still look like this? Only one small ding in the driver side rear door and thats it?

gurgling sound behind passenger dash
It could be just air in the lines that run to the heater core. Its quite common in earlier Soobs. To rememdy this, remove the radiator cap (while cold) start the engine and slowly fill with water. You may have to let the engine run for a while to let the thermostat open, this will help release more air from the system.

subarus everywhere & none to drive
Have you checked or changed the oil yet? This could be very important to you. If it looks like a milkshake, then yes, you have bit off more than you can chew. This would mean a head gasket change. Most of us that have been dealing with this type of engine usually change the waterpump and timing belts, and sometimes the front crank seal at the same time. Its unfortunate that you have spent alot of money on the car already. I hope I didnt rain to hard on your new car :-\

Well.. I feel Slow...
Just what Skip said. The only thing a stock EA82T is going to beat is a EA82. To get it going faster you need to do alot of mods. And here is where the search function is your friend. And Dog, you havent raced a real car yet. I got spanked in my 6 by a new model Benz. With 4 people in it

Oil pressure guage learns a new trick!
First, see if the sending unit came unplugged (I assume you checked this already). Second, do you have another oil pump laying around? I might, have one with a sending unit on it.

Sad Pictures
Thats real sad. Thats the most sorry excuse for a rack I've ever seen. Jack stands dont cost all that much. You could have been hurt and you definatly hurt your car. Hope you learned a lesson :-\

Mark your calendars: SubieFest 06
A few years back PNW had a RallyX at PIR. Theres quite a large field next to the track. But its a car breaker, a few people racing broke struts and hubs on the course. Big rocks and ruts. But no serious off-roading stuff that I know of. But Evans Creek isnt to far away Maybe an hour away. I think no matter what kind of Soob you own, you should attend. It sounds like its going to be rockin. I for one would love to get on the track in my XT6

How many have you meet and greeted.
Ah yes, the one person I would love to meet. BILLY C

Camo EA82 on I-405 in Bellevue
Is that the one that Tcat sold earlier this year? I didnt know it came out here.
-
Tranfercase rigs- what tire you running, how big?
Yes, 8in lift. I think I would prefer skinnier tires, altho these ride nice. I worry some about damaging the sidewalls on roots/rocks, they cost to much to replace. I need more time off-road with it to make a discision yet.
-
How many have you meet and greeted.
Zap, my list is almost identical to yours :-p There might be some from the last shows I didnt catch names of, but in all, about the same. Hopefully next year I can camp out @ the WCSS.
-
Tranfercase rigs- what tire you running, how big?
30x11.50 on 15" Chevy wheels. Man these suckers are wide, almost got me a ticket cause of them(among other items). No breakage yet, havent had a chance to get wild with it.

My 84 brat
If it get it gets lifted and/or painted, it would be fine. It would probably never see any serious off-roading anyways
