November 12, 201213 yr hey guys check it out just picked up this 82gl wagon with plaid interior and a passing light!:cool: chillin with the 85
November 12, 201213 yr Nice! It is identical to my 82 (before I painted it anyway) Have any future plans?
November 12, 201213 yr how many miles are on it? and definitely more picks:brow:, i just got a passing lamp hooked up on my 85 brat there very cool i even got it set up to run by its self so i could look like a motorcycle driving down the road with only the third eye on or in my case the 5th eye, also more info on it would be nice like what your plans are for it which shawn said above
November 12, 201213 yr Author specs ea81 with old junky carter carb 4-speed 4wd 250,000miles.. it has been in dry storage for almost 10 years and has no rust plans as of right now a good cleaning sort out the POs electrical mess:rolleyes: weber swap diffrent wheels... possible hub redrill this car is going to be more of a street machine because i already have my 85 wagon for offroad
November 12, 201213 yr Brings back childhood memories of my family '82 Wagon. Yours looks real nice, I'll be watching!
November 16, 201213 yr Author pics! this is after a quick cleaning:) plaid interior:cool: engine is fairly clean and just for fun:D
November 24, 201213 yr Author its raining so i have pretty much been inside all day with my Dremel tool cleaning my intake arsenal of tools... and i polished my thermostat housing:cool:
December 21, 201213 yr Author ok so i need to get a weber...what one should i get just the 32/36 off ebay? anybody had any luck with that?
December 24, 201213 yr Weber wont fit the carter intake. You need a Hitachi intake manifold to make it work. GD
December 25, 201213 yr Author Weber wont fit the carter intake. You need a Hitachi intake manifold to make it work. GD ya i heard that i already grabbed a hitachi intake off an ea81 at pick and pull so now i just need the carb and adapter.
January 4, 201313 yr Author ok so got my weber and got it on but i have one problem...my throttle cable isnt long enough? this car had a carter carb and the throttle cable hooks on the oposite side of the carb so do i need a different throttle cable like one that was for a car with a hitachi? are they longer?
January 8, 201313 yr Author ok well this may be important for anyone who is doing a weber swap on a car the had a carter carb turns out a hitachi throttle cable is longer than one for a carter wich wont reach the weber... who knew?
January 23, 201313 yr Author i saw this rally edition hatch at pick n pull today and i thought it was pretty cool kinda sad to see it there though.
August 2, 201312 yr Looking sick, love the stance. I need to get my 84 down low. That and a five lug will be happening after I finish the spfi swap.
August 2, 201312 yr Looks better with white wagon wheels IMO. That hood, although nicely done, is better suited to an AE86 Trueno or some 80's Toyota. I always thought the Land of the Rising Sun stuff never belonged on Subies. But it is your ride so no complaints. How did you lower the front? Cut coils or use 2wd struts?

Cut coils or use 2wd struts? the wheels are still white this picture just makes them look brown. and I cut coils and removed the adjuster bolts on my strut to drop the perch down a little bit.
