Ozmodiar-X Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 Whats the fastest someone has taken there stock 87 GL non turbo, FI, 2WD, EA82, 5-speed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoahDL88 Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 70, as that is the highest speed limit in my area. If you've gone faster we don't want to know about it, falls under the same umbrella as street racing and tresspassing when you offroad.

Ozmodiar-X Posted November 14, 2005 Author Share Posted November 14, 2005 i dont mean speeding or anything like that, i mean, like maybe someone has taken it on a track or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSubaruJunkie Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 85 is about as fast as I'd like to go in the RX on a daily basis. Anything higher and my wallet seems to suffor. I did have it up to 97 on a downhill stretch comming home from Reno one night. -Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never been to a track, so i can't help you there, sorry. i do know that my 88 DL 4wd didn't like anything much above 70 anyway. those wagon bodys are bricks.

Snowman Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 I know it's not quite the same car, but the fastest I ever had my 86 4wd carbed EA82 with free-er flowing intake and exhaust was 95. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wesley willis Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 i've been to 156, that's in km/h. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phizinza Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 about 160kph in my duel carb Brumby. I have M/T tyres now, so I am limited to 120kph. I would think a turbo EA82 should do about 105mph But I don't really know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHIM Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 I had my carbed 81 wagon up to 105 chasing my brother on his street bike, took me a long while to get there, about 3 miles to the floor and finally got there, talk about taching a motor out!!! Also i had my 84 GL10 turbo up to 130 coming back from the mountain, started on down hill but leveled out for about 2 miles and checked by way of GPS, havn't gone that fast again, don't know if it's to smart anyway. I swear that thing has more power than it should! ~CHIM~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

archemitis Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 100 with stock or smaller than stock tires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subarian Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 I managed to get up to about 95 once between Las Vegas and Barstow, but I was getting a lot of help from the Mercedes I was drafting. I've always been impressed with the engineering on Subarus, but I never could figure out why they bothered to put a 125 MPH speedo in them...

WJM Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 95~97 mph in my 2WD DL wagon with 3AT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuBrat84 Posted November 14, 2005 Share Posted November 14, 2005 I would think a turbo EA82 should do about 105mph But I don't really know. Not trying to hi-jack the thread here but a EA82 Turbo in good condition is capable of doing WELL over 105mph. As for your non-turbo stock EA82 SPFI. If it is truely stock, tires and everything, I would highly recommend not going more than 100mph, even on a track. Now with tire and suspension upgrades, on a track, I would feel comfortable seeing if i could get that spfi motor up to 120.. a 5spd in good condition should be perfectly capable of it.

kingbobdole Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 My N/T SPFI wagon has 29's on it and gets up to 80 on the spedo.... last time I was stopped in it the cop said I was going 71 when I thought I was doing 55ish.

mikeshoup Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 My fwd XT6 maxxes out at 140:burnout: 140? Hm. My FWD XT6 seemed to top out at about 125~130. Much better than my Toyota I had before the XT6, maxed out at 110 (which was also redline in 5th gear). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scrap487 Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 well in my N/A ea81 wagon that only likes to run on 3 cylinders alot, I've had that thing up to around 90-95 I think(redline in 4th gear, 4mt)... and still pulling but not nuf gears. although I know they aint subarus... but i've had my 93 jeep cherokee when it was stock with the 4.0L motor up to around 150 when it hit the rev limiter, and my nissan 720 maxxed out on a steep downgrade at about 90mph(thing doesnt have ANYTHING above 45mph, thanks to 322k miles on original engine.. ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burtonsnowman Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Friend's '93 Loyale on studded snows--95MPH uphill (okay, it was down a steep hill, then up the other side) Plus, he was steering with his teeth. (It was fun as heck, but don't try it.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burtonsnowman Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 Oh yeah--128MPH in my other friend's '92 Legacy with NO exhaust! We could have gone faster, were it not for the pounding headaches we both had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
