this place appears to be turning into iclub sometimes... anytime theres a minor disagreement, the damn thread gets deleted. there was one just a few days ago where someone posted a Q and got some less than intelligent answers, i responded in the kids defense, and it went back and forth once or twice and the thread disappeared... the ultimate watch what you say and who you say it to subaru messageboard

Replacing Rear Struts
easiest with compressed air and a big 1/2 inch impact gun - man i miss working at a shop. you wont have to compress the springs in the rear, ive done plenty of these on loyale cars and never had to pull a compressor out, theres just not enough tension in the rear...just unbolt the top, remove and replace. enjoy

Anyone running aftermarket or custom intake manifold?
boz if you ever get the chance, comepare the spider to the normal, flat EA82T intake. the difference is huge, especially after porting.

Rx intake
i had the expess auto parts unit on my car it was dirt cheap and it worked great
-
Rx7 cooler
an EA82T will not reliably handle 22PSI...maybe for a (read: one) 1/4 mile run, but dont expect to drive it home afterwards these motors are not closed deck and already prone to eating headgaskets. the fuel system will not handle 17PSI on a daily basis with out going lean - hence my comment about dystroying pistons. the initial poster said nothing of a fuel system/head gasket upgrade
-
Rx7 cooler
no idea on the fuel cut defender... but just a thought if you blow 17PSI into an EA82T youll likely be leaving pistons and rods all over the road...14 is cool, im gonna experiment with 15 once this wastegate is corrected on the XT.

Massive cams for the RX
$900 for 2 cams? straight from thier catalog: 4-cyl engines ---------- $210/cam due to our cams being so short in length, i think we'd only be charged for one. i dont know man, a $50 cam grind doesnt sound too reassuring.
-
Massive cams for the RX
go with paeco... they also have a massive catalog of stuff for our cars

Turbo performance mods (87 GL wagon)
these performance tips were for N/A EA81s i believe i know skip was experimenting with a colder thermostat, im not sure how it effected the engines overall performance. octane is something that turbo guys cant get around. i wouldnt even put 87 anywhere near the XT, i could just imagine the wonderful sounds the engine would make on full boost.

Opinions on an RX
oh no - maybe yours isnt a REAL RX!!!!!! hurry and check the VIN before the USMB gods banish your car to "wannabe" status. its a goddamn conspiracy! jay, they didnt ONLY come with hubcaps... actually you could get them with whatever wheels you wanted to at the time, the white hubcaps that everybody associates them with were just specific to the car. the also made a gray version of that hubcap that appeared on some XTs and others...ive seen RXs with H alloys, the wheels you mentioned and others.

ATK Engine reviews please
ATK is what places like pepboys and autozone use from what i know and from experiences working for both those companies...they paid about $2500 for that motor, probably even more to have it installed. places like that usually dyno test everything so you might have lucked out. score
