here's my story, and how I got another car.
Turbone replied to subaru_styles's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Thats a pertty 3dr Even if it is red (I'm superstitous). Garner, these WS are glued in. I will be getting a quote for a replacement on my wagon this week, I'll post it when I get it. Dan, you pay for my gas and I'll get that tranny(if its in PDX) -
Lowering an XT.... cheap...
Turbone replied to Ratty2Austin's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
How about a better explanation on how you shortened the springs? Others may want to know how you did it(or is it a trade secret) -
Will the 83 Coupe be mine????
Turbone replied to Bucky92's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
I see the person that outbid you has bid on another Subaru also. This guy trying to corner the market on old Soobs, or what? -
Check this site out, they may have an answer for you. I have the same tranny, but havent had the car long enough to know all the problems with it. XT6.net

Boost issues...and new top speed.
Turbone replied to WJM's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Maybe the XT6 TB TPS is acting up. Is it wired the same as the spider? Picking your brain a little, might be doing the same upgrade. -

Sounds like fuel starvation. But you say it was like this before the spider intake and XT6 TB, so now my thinking that theres to much air being forced in doesnt hold much now. Might need to find some bigger injectors or bigger fuel pump maybe? -
LMAOAROF I just looked at the message under his screen name Its ok, I know he will fix it. But, DOH!

Hey, Qman may have some pics a little later of his escapades after the earleir X-Mas tree scouting run today. He brought the Brat by on the trailer, in the dark, and I could barely see it(you all know its silver). A local farm decided to let the crazies around here take a run thru the pumpkin patch. $100 if they could make it thru. I'll let him finish the story, with pics hopefully. Oh, and nice body work there Zap

It looks alot like the Dodge Rampage from the mid 80's.

If you dont have anything to contribute, then dont visit This is whats been needed for a while now. When folks have questions about mods and stuff, they dont have to flood the Main board weekly with the same questions.

Quattro San lives! (Updated as of 11/2/2004)
Turbone replied to carfreak85's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
I dont know about you guys, but check out that engine bay some more. Thats a nightmare! I think it needs a updated EA81T in it. -
Got amps? GM Alternators! (pics and part#'s added)

Heres a link to previous discussions. GM one wire conversion -
Major Breakthrough! (T-coup)
Turbone replied to Mr. Carb's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
The temp sending unit on a EA81T is on the gooseneck below the T-Stat, and it only has one wire from it. This goes to the gauge. There is a seperate sensor on top of the T-Stat that might be sending readings to the ECU. If the person that was selling the manuals a yearago had sent me the elec manual I bought from him, I would be able to tell you more about it -
Troubleshooting my EA82T (update)
Turbone replied to baccaruda's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Are the heads yours or from rguyver? It almost sounds like the valves are bent. Or you could be right and the rings are toast. What about the DP? Is it gutted? Maybe plugged, but that doesnt explain the bad compression. Your also right about the carby short block, alot easier to find -
Hey Kowboy, seeing how I'm just down the Hwy from you, whats this local yard in Enumclaw? Welcome to the board btw.

This mod has been done by several so far. It should have a write up and be in the USRM soon. Havent heard of anyone frying their wiring yet. -
Overpriced Parts? $500+ for a heater core
Turbone replied to NorthWet's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
For those of us that know the shortcut for replacing a heater core, there are the guys in the shops that dont, and end up doing it by the book. That means taking the entire dash out, then the housing that holds the core. Then you have to split that to remove the core. Then you have the fun of putting it all back together Now, what would you charge to do that? Granted, I wouldnt charge as much as the shop did, they usually have a high overhead Roundeye, my sympathies go out to you -
HELP, New to Sub's...random engine shutdown
Turbone replied to Highway 101's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Wow, what are the chances of this happening again? :cool: Its good to know the car is finally running without problems. It seems that this issue isnt that common, tho I know theres a few folks out there that have had some type of fuel problems. I wonder if its due to your location and availability of gas? -
HELP, New to Sub's...random engine shutdown
Turbone replied to Highway 101's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Welcome to the board. I dont know why you brought up a post thats almost a year old tho? What are you searching for? Theres quite a few full time mechs on the board and we have alot of Tech School students also. Unfortunatly, the original poster never came back to tell us if the car got fixed and what the problem was. Even tho I did state that it could be a disty going bad, I now think it could have been the coil. Its been a current problem here lately.
