Turbone

Finally got pics of both seats installed. Also swapped tires (again) on the RX. One of the wheels was really bent and I cant get a set of alloys for at least a couple of weeks :-\

I know at least 2 people were taking pics of the mess

Erik (Eriksport) posted up some pics and vids over on Nasioc. Some great stuff, so of course I thought I would share http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?p=29062267#post29062267

Thats it.....I'm stayin home :-\

Heres the weather report from NWS and NOAA. http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick...0&unit=0&lg=en Looks like 30% chance of snow Sat night. But Sun is partly sunny, with a high near 18. East wind between 17 and 21 mph. In other words.....colder than a witches *****. Dress warm and bring blankets. I'll be bringing my propane heater and I think Qman will also. Oh looky......my 10k post

I know that tune, it sounds like the front diff is toast :-\ Start looking for another tranny. If you want more info on what to get, go over to the SVX Forum.

Got my snow tires mounted yesterday. I have to stop taking crappy cell pics

Theres also a chance the flex plate is cracked. What are the symptoms?

Haha....I'll have to show you sometime how much my car likes hi octane

You need to use the smileys to get the point across

Your lucky, its around $3gal here for 93 :-\

Well, seeing how your not cleaning out your PM box, I'll post this here: Theres more to it then just slapping a TD04 on. Have you read up on any of the threads involved with the swap? You need a WRX up-pipe and down pipe for the flanges, which need to be welded to your EA82T up-pipe. Then I suggest getting a top mount intercooler as the extra boost is going to heat things up. Look in your Nasioc Chapters For Sale Forum(http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=131), you might find the parts there. Or keep a eye on Craigslist, I found my TMIC there. Heres a good thread to read also...http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=88249 I also suggest you get a manual and read up on how these engines work, plus do a search here on all the threads about EA82T's. I can only help so much. I have lots of projects and I'm raising 2 teenage boys by myself. Theres others here that can help, but disregard anything that GD has to comment about on this topic Another thing is the higher mileage on your engine. If you start doing mods to it, it wont last long, trust me.

If your only coming up to get a tree, your priorities are all wrong Theres going to be alot of Subaru folks there to meet and wheel with.

They feel awesome. These were going in my RX, but they are simpler to install in a EA81. I'm sticking to Subaru seats in the RX, prob RS or better.

86deathwagon has exceeded their stored private messages quota and cannot accept further messages until they clear some space.

I wanted to wait till I had the other seat in, but I got sidetracked today and it was to dark to take a pic. But both seats are in......Mitsubishi Eclipse seats. They almost match the stock seats

What year is the car? If its 87+, it will have a hotwire MAF and that can get dirty. Most Auto Stores carry MAF cleaner for this.

Its something of a gimmick, I wouldnt waste my money on it. Altho some say it has increased HP a little.

Can you post the results of these races? I would like to see what you are racing against in your class.

I doubt it. The RX suspension is just to old and out of date. When I Rally X'd my Imp last year for the first time, it was a huge difference between it and my RX. I only race Honda's on the street now. JK

http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/forumdisplay.php?s=&daysprune=14&f=29 A forum here that will give all kinds of engine swap info. And welcome to USMB.

I beg to differ on that point. You might have had a tired EA82T. My EA82T (modified of course) has 155bhp and 171tq. The stock EJ22 has 133bhp and 137tq. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subaru_EJ_engine#Specifications_5 If you do a engine swap and race it (at the track), you will be put in another class. But you will have a better engine to run with, with more upgrade options.

I think it was for a 04-05 WRX. The top fits fine, but the bottom needs to be trimmed.

Depending on conditions up there, I would suggest bringing a shovel and tire chains also.

Altho my setup is the A-pillar of a EA82 rig, I think its possible to find something that will work on a EA81. Heres what mine looks like... The gauges are from Glow Shift, got them on Ebay. Dont buy a oil pressure gauge, they wont last a year. I went thru 2 of them before buying a different brand. I also had to tap out the the holes for the sending units for water temp and oil pressure. They are now SAE fittings.
