lkindred Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 It's not what I have done. BF is doing it. He's been busy painting exterior, refurbishing bumpers, rims, mud flaps, all side strips etc. Still has a couple more add ons like skid plate and roof rack to go. And some fine-tuning on the paint job. Will post pics when the 86 Hatch is done. My job is to think of a new name - I've called him Hatch Boy since I got him and I think he is looking fantastic and needs a "heavier name".

Phizinza Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 I changed the engine yet again in my 83 Leone for another EA81. Now I've got an exhaust leak and I've got to replace my inner cv (DOJ) boots on both front shafts. That should happen today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twitch de la Brat Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 it's in the glove box I'm waiting on a clip for it . Awesome. What I did to my suby today, is drive it, and I will be driving it more today. And keep worrying about that drivers side wheel bearing that's getting louder. Why do the driver's side wheel bearings hate me so much? Same one that just detonated on my BRAT Twitch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

subynut Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 I dunno...I had a simular problem with the driver's front half shaft. I replaced about twice as many on that side than the passengers. But only on the 86. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derburger Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Replaced my XT's two "front sway bar end link bushings" which took a while to locate and receive from the Subaru dealer. Next is flushing out the A/C and replacing some orings, then charging with R12 Freon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twitch de la Brat Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 I replaced my O2 sensor, and now Xandra runs well again! Hopefully my gas mileage will go back up now And I started sanding the rust out of the bed of my BRAT. Its gonna take a while, a looooooong while. Esp. if my drill battery only lasts 10 minutes at a time. I think I'm gonna need to use the corded drill and grinder. Twitch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asis Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 Shuffle and deal Tire swapin... Like new toyo eclipse from black bart/brat to the driver BRAT, mud n studs to the GL rollers on bart least till its under it's own power. Got the goodies pulled from BART and even got the lil EA71 to sputter at me. goodies from BART cleaned prepped and primed/painted. Bit of clean up left to do on the seats and welding on the high bar and final touchups.

vagen Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 the spoiler is for autocross and yes it kills milage but creates down force at lower speed so the trade off may be ok. I will find out this week end when I race it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
