Risky to Drive Turbo Without Knock Sensor?
Turbone replied to losingalltouch's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Yeah, not a good idea. PM me your addy and I can send a used one to you. -
Tire size makes a big difference also. I have 185/70/14's on my Brat with a unknown year 5spd D/R. My rpm's run about 2.6k at 70mph.

XT turbo parts (brakes rims) on a 88gl how easy
Turbone replied to codytotheh's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Its a direct swap on all of it, you should have no problems. Unless its all rusty -
EA82T

You must be east of Hwy 18 I assume. Bonney Lk, WA. On the border of Hicksville and the City Slickers

I'm going to send you a scan of the EJ ECU pin outs, it might help a little. Oops, send me your email addy.

Thinking of buying a RX and have a question
Turbone replied to wrxzzz's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Regardless of what you think GD, the EA82T wasnt that bad a engine. Every EA82T that I ever had, had well over 100k on it. Show me another engine that was turbo'd with that kind of mileage. The reason everyone has a problem with them is they get them with high mileage, then beat the snot out of them and/or mod them. -

If you need or want info on the stock engine, or the RX in general ask me. I've been thru about a 1/2 dozen of the engines I now have a EJ22T in the car. -
No more knock since I changed the oil (just 300mi). I tried hunting down the leak today but couldnt see anything obvious. I may have a leaky HG :-\ I did replace the IAC and TPS, so hopefully my idle problem is fixed.

It just may be low on fluid, a LSD diff will act funny if low. If thats the only thing wrong with it, I would still buy it, they are easy to replace. You could always throw a open 3.7 rear diff in and drive it till you found a replacement LSD diff. -

The feature is called the "Hill Holder". It allows you to release the brake while sitting on a up hill slope. I think it only works on the front wheels tho. The problem could be the rear diff is locking up. -

Sorry I didnt make it down yesteday, I was working on mine...again I had to get my tail lights resealed, they were filling up my back end with water. Then for some reason, my electrical decided to go wonkers. When I first started it that morning, the dash looked like a x-mas tree. I popped the hood, but everything looked ok. I pulled it under my canopy and started looking around, but couldnt see anything wrong. When I went to start it again, it wouldnt start. I checked the ign fuse - blown. I went thru that about 6 more times I started checking out my harness by the battery and noticed my overflow tube for the rad was dripping right on a junction. I moved it and messed with the wiring and it fixed it. Dang, its the little stuff that messes with ya Drove it to a meet tonight with no issues.

Buy mine

Can I get a Amen...??
Turbone replied to IndyBlitzen's topic in Meet n' Greet. Your USMB Welcome Center
Nah, I cant ban anyone.....yet. I was just returning the spirit in which your first post came across. I'm a frequent flyer over at the "other" place, as I have more than one generation of Subaru. And I try and make a meet a week, got to rep the old school Subaru's. But as the others mentioned, we are pretty laid back here and try and keep the drama at a minimum. The USMB has been around for about 12yrs and we have a pretty good knowledge base for our quirky cars from beginning to end. We welcome any insight and questions you may have. Oh btw, I love your car. But I'm biased towards black. -

If the first part was true, you wouldnt be here either And if the OP hadnt posted a pic and a little info, I would have banninated him -
I dont think its going to work to well. The reason we do body lifts is because it puts less stress on the axle joints.
-
Yeah, I'm pretty sure they are the same. But if you are thinking of using a EA tranny behind a EG, its not going to last long.
-
This is basically what I did, but I cutout the EA FP relay and ign stuff so it (me) didnt get confused with the EJ wiring.
-
I might be able to come up Thurs and I have some diagrams etc. Do you even have a FSM?

Finished installing my GC/Eibach coilovers, my RX handles now Psyko came over and lent a hand, when were done with mine and test drove it (ask him about the ride) we worked on his Legacy wagon. I polished the headlights so he can see at night now and we welded up his broken exhaust. Pretty productive afternoon. RX sits a little lower now
