    Also, Nico has the Rare "Full Automatic-Cover" Fog Halogen Lights,   optioned for the Early EA82 Turbo.         ...and this is the Switch, mounted on the Dashboard,   for Factor

When I first bought my brat I thought the the funtops were rare turns out the brats w/out them are more rare!

*Fixed* I meant EA81. Tons of EA82s came with the line-installed sunroof. On the EA81, it seems like the line-installed sunroofs are much harder to find versus dealer-installed units.

 

Oh thats better, that makes lots more sense! Yet somehow I feel cheated....

 

My car came with the "break after every fix" option. It never fails either. :(

DL optional center arm rest

Kamei spoiler

Foha spoiler

Enkei wheels

14" wheels (Not Peugeot)

15" wheels (Not Peugeot)

Wagon/hatch wind deflectors

Extruded aluminum EA81 wagon trailer-hitch-equipped rear bumper

Headlight washers - From Oz/NZ

Three point EA81 wagon rear seat belts - From Oz/NZ

Factory installed EA81 sunroof

EA81 turbo'ed cars

EA81T power steering fluid bib

EA81 wagon/hatch cargo cover

EA81 fog light and dealer installed cruise control switches

 

I'll think up some more eventually...

 

Oh yeah, a key to lock the glovebox on an EA81... Got mine!

 

I have both a factory installed sunroof and the cargo cover. I also have cruise but i dunno how to tell if its dealer or factory.

how about a EA-81 jdm with the duel carbs complete.... wish i would have knew what that was before i gave it to a friend:banghead:

locking lug nuts with keys (real actual keys) only ones i have ever seen are in the brochure

XT6 3.9 factory LSD. Never seen one but the FSM talks about them and I've also heard the parts books show a listing for them?

 

 

 

I used to have a set of brand new gen 3 EA82T heads in the original packaging.

Try and beat this!

 

Subaru 360 with auto drive!

Subaru 360 with the "sports package"

 

looking at the video i think the leather gloves may have been a factory option too. We all know that when you drive with leather gloves the car handles better!

 

 

Wait out the first minute

Well... Back in the 1980's era, the "Shift-Up" Light in the Dashboard was a very Rare Feature for a Car then, but Seems like even Older Subarus got an Audible Beep alarm instead that Light, Back on the 1970's era; See this Post:

 

...There are one or two threads kicking around for the GSR. ... Just found out the other day. It has an audible *beep* from under the dash when you exceed around 115km/h. It appears to have a bit more gadgetry than the normal ones too I think.

I didnt no that.. My one on my GSR does not work. Mind you its had a alarm installed so they mite had cut the wires to it?

I'd have to say the factory dual carb setup is a rare thing to have. As far as I know, there are only 2 in the U.S. One up in pacific northwest (can't remember who had it and the one I had which I sold to McBrat when I (regretfully) got rid of my BRATs.

 

(P.S. I still have stuff if anyone's lookin. RX ground effects, BRAT bed chrome, misc dash parts, maybe some disc brake conversion stuff) If interested, just call me because I rarely get on here. Boz 609 941 9143

How about a NEW sealed bottle of Cybrid steering fluid?? (I think Hondasucks MIGHT have one...)

 

You know you can still order that from the dealer right? i picked up a new bottle from carter subaru about a year ago.
