November 3, 200718 yr hi everyone you might recognize me as oilcover or coiloverkid from the nasioc forums... I have an 87 GL wagon, with a built 2.0L JDM EJ20, rotated turbo, and Link+ standalone, blahblah...it's RWD, too. it's fun. I just blew the rear end after 2 years of loyal service, and Im throwing a new R160 back in. ANNNDDD i'm excited to find you can fit miata coilovers on this thing. see ya round!
November 4, 200718 yr Video (featuring you) of your car was posted about a year ago.... the person said you sold the car to him.... did you buy it back or was he full of BS? Either way, that's one hell of a sweet wagon.
November 4, 200718 yr Author I bought it back. I couldn't stand it being in possesion of a non "subaru person"...you guys understand. I sold it in a rush to pay for my more expensive wrx project car and i regetted it, so when i had the cash i bought it back. that IS me in the video. I'm the original owner/builder.
November 4, 200718 yr When the original video came out (way back when) we were all gaa-gaa on it. Basically, we wanted more. Can we see more? BTW, I had stealthily tracked you down on a drift forum and had serious thoughts of purchasing it when you put it up for sale. Sadly, I suck, so I never contacted you.
November 4, 200718 yr You need to make that thing AWD/4WD and do a 5 lug conversion... Then you can :burnout::burnout: instead of :burnout:lol..
November 5, 200718 yr Author i'm trying to get coilovers/stiffer suspension for this damn thing, it's hard! the problem is i wanna be 4-lug so I can run old school corolla style wheels with a good sized lip and sit flush. like this: this means re-drilling it to 4x114.3 or hub adapters... someone told me go 5-lug and get coilovers, but that's $$$. another option was kyb gr-2's and that coilover sleeve kit with stiff springs and crank down on the sleeve to dump it! which ground-control coilover conversion kit fits?
November 5, 200718 yr welcome. Nice to see that you have found your way here. Heard about your wagon from various soob circles. I have the EJ BRAT in L.A. Working on a long term EJ powered RX. Send me a PM and we can hook up. I am in Redondo Beach. BW (btw, your pm is full)
November 13, 200718 yr someone told me go 5-lug and get coilovers, but that's $$$. 5 lug on my wagon, with coilover/sleeve setup was less than $200
