Done.

Westcoastsubarushow.com is up, link to register is on the page.
As for the FB page, we don't intentionally block anybody. I'll run through the settings again, but it should be open for people to see. -
Jeff,
Keep me in the loop on this (FB maybe? or text/call me).
Would love to come out if i'm around. I'm about 10min from Dicks. Wouldn't mind having a couple people over for an after party either.

I never thought I'd see someone put Ohlins on an old Leone.
Props to you good sir. Props indeed.

We found a little room in the budget, and rented a pressure washer to help get the cars clean after mudpit festivities.

Friday 8/1 is the last day to pre-register and pre-buy merch.
-
Don't forget to pre-order your shirts with your registration!www.westcoastsubarushow.com/store/

So do the fronts fit aswell?
No.
Miata's use an upper / lower control arm suspension with the integrated shock/spring (coilover).
EA82's use a McPherson strut setup, like almost all other Subaru's. Which means the front suspension has a lower arm, and the strut acts as the shock/spring/ & upper control arm.
-
It was brought to our attention that some of the registration emails didn't get to where they needed to.
I have fixed that error.
If you have not received a confirmation email, please PM me your name, and I will resend it.
Sorry for the trouble!

Hey Subaru Fans!
Pre-Registration for this years West Coast Subaru Show is now OPEN!We are headed back the the Jefferson County Fairgrounds in Port Townsend! Dates will be August 15, 16, and 17th.
Registration for this years show is all very similar to years past. We will leave pre-registration open until the end of July, and as always will be accepting registrations at the gate. We are going to accept pre registrations for camping this year. Camping registration will not be accepted without registration for the show. We are going to cap available pre-registered camping spaces at 250. We don't want to oversell the field.
Dante's inferno will be serving hot dogs again for lunch during the day Saturday.
Merchandise pre-sale will be opening soon as well. We are very excited about this years shirt designs, and are exploring options for some other cool swag.
We look forward to seeing you there! -
Is the EJ22 running fuel injection?
The fuel system (tank, lines, fittings, design) of your wagon cannot directly handle a fuel injected motor. Those systems were built to see 3-10psi of fuel pressure, while the fuel injection will run upwards of 40psi.
The problems sound like fuel pressure issues to me. Does the car take a few cranks to start after its been sitting overnight?
I ran my EJ22 on a '86 carb'd wagon for a couple years, and had on again off again drivability issues. They all came back to fuel. I ended up losing that motor, probably due to fuel starvation. While its down, I'm redoing the fuel system to handle fuel injection by adding in a surge tank.
This basically has your stock low pressure system fill a small secondary tank (mine is 2 liters, located in the engine bay), and then you have the high pressure pump draw from that tank. This way your stock fuel system doesn't have to support pressure it wasn't designed for.

Coilovers for a 05-09 Legacy GT will fit with some mods.

EJ18 Carb.
Do it.
Also... isn't it about time to start another project and part this one out? I think its been more than 6 months.

I'm interested in a set of 4 of these if there are any still available.
Confirmed to work on the front and rear of a EA82 w/ disk brakes all around?

Just came back from the Cowlits Regional Conference Center, the site of WCSS15. There are two gates, gate 6 off of Washington and Gate 4 off of 7th. Which will be the gate we enter at?
We are not sure yet. We will make the decision on Thursday when we get on site, and we will put up signage.
The gate off Washington St. is more direct to the camping field, however doesn't leave much room for lining up. We may opt for the entrance off 7th, that is closest to Washington St. as that would give us some of that parking lot to line up in. However, that may be a no go depending on event happening in the Conference Center on Friday.

I've been here a long time. Way back in the day I built this car, and used it to follow the HatchPatrol around the trails of the PNW. Most of us faded from taking the old rigs to the dirt, the smart ones invested in more capable Toyotas, the others moved on down the road of life. I chose to invest that time/money in other projects... But I still have the Beast, and I still continue to drive it nearly everyday.
Recently I got the chance (thanks Qman!) to take the Beast through its paces on film for Subiesport.tv. The experience was well worth the day off, and it did re-ignite my offroading desire!
Check out the video here: http://subiesport.tv/site/2013/02/subiesport-s01-e02-crossover-megatest/
You have to sign up I think, but its free. Its a well produced 20 minute video, my part starts at the 7min mark or so.
Car specs:
'86 GL Wagon (stock: Carb'd EA82, 3.9 5spd D/R)
EJ22 Swap
FT4wd RX transmission w/ center diff lock (3.7)
3.7 LSD
3" BYB Lift
15" Redrilled steel wheels
BFG AT Tires

West Coast Subaru Show 18!
in Meet n' Greet. Your USMB Welcome Center

We love dogs. If you think your dog will be comfortable in the environment of the event, we don't have a problem with you bringing them. If you have any doubt about the dog's comfort or safety, please find a sitter.
Please make sure you pickup after your Dog, I do believe our contract with the grounds requires it, and I don't want to be the one doing it. Please make sure your dog isn't barking/howling all day/night.
Technically we don't allow dogs around the show cars, or in the buildings. Have we ever had to enforce that? Once. Some guy was letting his dog stand up against a car, owner of the car got pissed, I had to deal with it. This is more in there for our protection. Be smart and polite, and we won't even notice the dog there.
We only allow service cats
