  1. Only if its hi comp or a turbo. But I dont think going to 50lb would hurt.
  2. Some people want their cars to have character and set them apart from others. Why be like all the other cookie cutter cars out there? My lifted Hatch has fast blinkers because the bulbs are a different wattage.
  3. This isnt oxidation, the paint thinner melted the plastic. No amount of sanding is going to help these, trust me (ask me how I know)
  4. I have pics of you riding it, remember? I just want a closer look to see how the engine is mounted, etc. I have a weed whacker engine that should work on it.
  5. I have a black hood and headlight covers if you need them.
  6. Got my RX real dirty on a 300mi+ road trip last Sat. Did about 10mi on dirt roads. One of our stops for a photo op.
  7. I've got a mountain board (actually my kids) and would love to motorize it. Tips, plans, etc would be sweet. Are you bringing that to the Show this year? Love to take a closer look at it.
  8. It could be the governor gear, which is a simple fix if you can find a good replacement. http://www.indysworld.com/80s/general/USRM/Transmission/Governor/ATgovenorclean.htm
  9. And I had nothing to do with it Glad your going to keep it. And I'm still watching/looking for a bumper.
  10. Welcome to USMB. Will you be at WCSS12? I would love to meet you and Angel (I want to see your mods)
  11. Maybe, maybe not. Depends on your base color and how thick you want it.
  12. Krylon has camo paint, comes in flat colors. Paint late morning while the humidity is low.
  13. I might recommend checking the thread date before responding
  14. Read this thread from the XT board. One of the guys rebuilt a ER27 (essentially a EA82 with 2 more pistons) and about halfway he gets into forged pistons etc. http://subaruxt.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=3575&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&hilit=ER27+build This wont be cheap, but o-ringing a block isnt either.
  15. Theres lots of good soap out there - Turtle Wax, etc. Go to any chain auto store, they will have it. Just dont use dish soap......ever.
  16. Been doing some much needed maintenance on my Hatch. Drained the rear diff and put it in new. The old stuff was black, but no water! Changed the oil. And had fun re-winding the cable on my winch. It hasnt been out for a while and I had to use my Brat to pull it out. I also had a bad connection and had to pull off the leads and clean it all up.
  17. I think so, not 100% sure. When I said I rolled past him, he was doing 65mph and I was probably doing 70+ (70mph speed limit)
  18. Mr Carb I believe. Buddy of Austins. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=103120
  19. No, they arent. Theres Hitachi's and NipponDenso. I believe the EA81T disty is different also. Jerry DeMoss and Psyko might have some info as well.
  20. I'm going to try and make it, but it all depends on how beat up I am after the Rally X on Sat.
