I have a few spare blocks around here. I'm pretty sure none of them are or at least one of them isn't hydro lifter. Ok ok. so Cam, heads, and intake.. The exhaust will have to be custom as its not available.. Ok! Lets go shopping!
-
Sorry for the whole zombie return from dead thing. But I have a lead on a dualcarb setup. And possibly the dualcarb heads, and maybe (just maybe) the rest of the block. The less I have to get, the cheaper it'll be... Soo I under stand the dualcarb heads flow better... But are different to ordinary ea81 heads. Can they work on an ordinary ea81 block? Do I need to get the dualcarb cam too? Can the dualcarb cam be used in an ordinary block? Oh excitement! must have!

I wonder if Japan has any! They're closer!

To be honest, shipping would kill me if you guys could get something together at an alright price, therefore, my opinion is kinda useless at the moment...

thinking of repainting my wagon + photoshop =

How about The bumpers black, door handles, and the RX kit black also? Bit more contrast? I approve anyway:) -
THats what I thought to. I also thought Daeron was referring to A/C by which he meant the large airy rust holes.
-
I'm not 100%, But I think there are some Suzuki quad bike rims that are very similar in pattern, not sure if they clear the brakes though. I think that guy sweet82 or something around the offroad forum used something similar on his subaru buggie.

The Gen 1 bed cover is what I'd really really really like, with the louvers and stuff... Painted a colour to match a two tone brat maybe... Mmmmmmm:)

86 wagon top speed question
waimaks replied to subaruguru's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
'81 brat- 4 speed 96mph approx '87 RX - 114mph approx Also, the question is confusing. -
Ooh I like these threads! Ok so these are Gen 1's but hey... '81 Brumby, my first Subaru, and car. Is fairly tidy only had 64,000km original when I got it now has 82,000km. Is awaiting removal of a little bit of rust, then 'restoration' so to speak begins. #2 '81 Brumby, Parts-mobile. Got it cheap, for parts, and what do ya know, it was legal on the road and ran mint! Still has 1 month of legal motoring left in it, so is being daily drivin till then, at which point, I'll park it in a field for parts, and maybe future trailered 4X4 project. '87 Omega RX I'm actually trying to sell this at the moment, So I can focus on one old car. And get something a bit more practical and less-turbo for perminant DD.

EA82T, Easy 130-140hp? (not asking for directions)
waimaks replied to Zer0d's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
I think you could yes. Don't ask me how specifically though. I only have vauge Ideas in that department. -
Answer-- No, The hubs/knuckle things, are different, very different.
-
Ah, doh, learnt something!
-
The prelude bonnet hinges from the front, so definately not bolt on. And looks different shape to me also.

Ok, so for a laugh, and While its still Legal. I was gonna make the brumby RWD. I've got the hub assemblys off an ea81 wagon, 4wd, with solid rotors, and a popped out cv, but the stub(?) still in the hub. So to save myself busting up the outer cv, I thought i'd chuck on that hub, and stick my caliper on it, no bleeding nessasary. Soo, I've heard of sticking the complete vented setup in thurr, but nothing about mixing the two solid disc varients. Will it work?

I painted it! Pictures-56k bad
waimaks replied to waimaks's topic in Historic Subaru Forum: 50's thru 70's
I had thought about camo, it definately would hide some of the 'imperfections' a bit better than gloss does, Matt/flat camo that is. Got the first mud on the paint today... Just a little 4wd splatter on the back from towing legacys... I'd keep on driving it quite happily personally.... Buut, 6 monthly WOF (warrent of fitness) is coming up april 24th for it... And it is just kinda a little wee tiny bit impossible to pass, I don't know where on earth the previous owner got warrents, but it musta been dodgy as ****.
