Turbone

I'm going to try and leave with the early group. Maybe I'll have the wife and kids meet up with you guys later J/K

Might be a possibility. They dont ticket for Cruising there, do they?

I dont think so. The frame rails are further apart on your car and the body styles are so much different. But with a welding torch, anything can be made to fit

Make sure you remove the TC from the flywheel. Install the TC back on the tranny, turning it untill you feel the keyway slip in the shaft. Then your ok to put the tranny back on the engine. Failure to do this will result in a ruined tranny, and reattach the TC to the flywheel. Believe me, I had to learn the hard way

Would a Mid-life Crisis work? Just tell the wife and kids we are going on a Sabbatical, we should be gone for only about 2 weeks.....Problem is, I dont think we could come back empty handed

Yes Paul, most of us luv ya Have some wild ideas sometimes, but what the heck, it keeps things hopping here. If I was younger, wasnt married with 2 kids, I would probably hop on a ship and work my way over there. Stay for a while and maybe work a little here and there, enjoying the country and see as many Subaru's as possible. Now whos dreaming

You will have to change all the exhaust/intake flanges to fit the turbo. There may be a few more items I dont know about. A bigger turbo will mean more turbo lag, but when it kicks in, hold on to your hat Better put a IC on it too, if you want the engine to last.

Ha, that pic of my trk and me is when I was pulling a broken support out so it wouldnt puncture the tire. I wont be doing that in again - in the trk.

I smell a movie here :cool: At least he should go to Hollywierd and start writing, this sounds better than most stuff coming from there

There was about 10 of us there. Eric, Ken/Son, Tex/GF, Amanda, Danbob99, Matt, Will(newb), Brian in his Yota Landyacht, and me in my Mazda. Didnt get to see to much action from Kens Brat, I was in front of him. Had a hard time keeping up with Eric in his Hatch tho, I was a little leary of body damage. Which I did fix(kinda) today, it looks better than it did

Welcome, finally. And here we thought it was always Gabe online

The grills are different from 87 up. So a grill from a RX might fit on a car thats a 87 or newer, but not on something older.

It looks just like the one on my 89 RX. And those plants growing in front look suspisious

If he broke the bolt off in the crank, then its tighter than a .....well, you know. And its not coming out with a screwdriver. Can the pulley be removed? If you can get it off you might be able to get ahold of any material left with vise grips. If not, the only recourse is to drill it till theres not much left of the bolt, then pick out whats left. You must be very careful not to drill into the crank tho If this doesnt work you will need to pull the motor and take it to a machine shop. I had a quote last week to remove a intake bolt from a head. The carbide bits are $15 each, and the labor is around $45 +/-. Good luck.

C'mon up to Evans Creek on Sat. Lots of easy dirt roads and some difficult ones also.

And dont forget that Subaru calipers dont compress in, they screw in CW.

Negatory. The front diff is seperate from the tranny and can be removed. It will be a PIA to get back together because of the plumbing and gaskets. I looked into this when I was having so many problems with the 3AT in my T-Coupe. The front diff can be replaced when it starts eating up govenors. But it was easier just to replace the whole tranny

Hmm, fly there and rent U-Haul truck back? Or, take a bus and rent a truck back? Check the classifieds for anyone going to C Springs and needs a co-driver, then rent truck for return trip?

They usually last longer than the rest of the tranny

It probably means, when the weather starts to get colder maybe your choke wont work properly

Heres a link on Turbo's... Turbo types The XT6 flywheel is what you want, I believe. Dont bother with Accel, to many going bad. MSD is a good choice. Spider intake from a XT (Some have them, some dont. One from a turbo is prefered. A IC from a WRX works great with the spider intake. 3in might be a little big, 2 3/4 might work better. You want drilled discs? Go for it$$$ Not sure on the fuel cut to boost ratio. You can have fuel cutout with normal boost, sometimes. Hope this helps.

Its most likely the Governor. Its on the right side (passenger) of the tranny and looks like a big cup. Remove the 3 bolts and pull out the gear. Cleaning sometimes works, but most times a replacement will have to be made. Go to your local wrecking yard and look for any Soob from 82-92 that has a 3spd AT in it. They should work, altho I would try and get one from a later model.

Hmm, well. I think the person with this great idea should supply transportation for all wishing to go On the other hand, I dont think its to late to book a flight to make it here by the 27th.

Not to bad. That should be easy to clean up. Heres what I had to start with on my EA82T. EA82T dirty EA82T clean I have some pics of a EA81T that was in real bad shape, but it cleaned up and ran good (before I blew a hose then HG).

I bought 2 Titanium bits today, they didnt have any carbides smaller than 1/4in. Took the head to work and clamped it on the drill press vise. Absolutely nothing. Actually broke both bits One of the guys at work tells me that a local Napa store has a machine shop and the guy can do anything. So the heads going to the shop, aint got time to mess with it anymore. Besides, it has 1 easyout and 2 drill bits stuck in that little hole. Hope he can get it cleaned out with out screwing up the hole
