we used a whole carbbed block. the motor went out west and back and never had any problems, pump gas and stock timing

use some silioe spray or wd 40 to help the boots slip on. good ol spit will do if you dont have the beforementioned

i suggested finding a pic on the net and drawing over it with ms paint like i did with this:http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=2074 but anyway once i download a driver for my mustek 1200 UB scanner i can doodle up something....

well depending on how your tranny is geares, the subaru motor has a short stroke and is best in the 2500-4500 rpm range. rpms translate to power the way it was designed in the subaru

well this is what my rx looks like now, minus the lift of course. dammit i need a camera

i dont know, i thonk an rx will look right lifted as long as the proportions are right. say 3 inch and xt6 wheels, or other 14's. hell my rx would make a good candidate, its already part time carb. dammit if i didnt have a picture. but the way i have it it would look right lifted to an extent. maybe lose the front dam if u lift it....

suppose the clutch cable was too tight?

do you mean the heater fan or the radiator fan? turn it on, is it connected to a switch? as far as the radiator fan the circuit for it is live all the time in acc and run pos. and the curcuit grounds thru the thermo switch, turning it on. also the ac pressure switches will kick it on when the ac is running. if the fan seems to run all the time, or draining the alt, there must be a short to ground somewhere along the line, explaining how pulling the fuse stopped the matter

dont forget the rx axles are longer than the brat. the doj is too big to swap onto the ea81 axle if you are relly serious you should consider the ea82 suspension, that is if yu can fab and have access to tools. another option would be the custom axle route, but that may involve $$$$ a simpler solution would be to see if 23 spline stubs will swap onto the full time tranny, so you can just drop it in with the existing axles if you want my real opinion i would consider the ea82 mod(relocate control arm mount, ea82 inner tie rod(ps only) and modified strut cap) as this will let you use the rx struts, and also acommodate a 5 lug xt6 suspension i may be getting my modified crossmember this weekend and i will see if i can get a pic of the mount relocation

so if i understand this right this is an ea81 in an ea82 car? very nice! i take it you swapped the pitch bar mounts? did you use ea81 or ea82 anciliaries?

the soob has a common ground so if you use a radio with 8 wires for the speaks, you will use the grounds for the left and right fronts, leave the rear grounds hang fom the radio. the haynes book has a good diagram for the electricals

post them here on usmb in the market place forum. this site is the biggest old scoll site with the most exposure. you answered yourself by posting here!

you would have to find away around the front axles. the brat has 23 splines and the rx is 25 spline, you will have to have custom axles made, or do the ea82 suspension conversion and use 5mt turbo axles for ea82.

i like the napa/wix filters. 1361GOLD 21361SILVER 51361WIX. i get gold or silver depending on how broke i am, either or, but i will get the gold if i have enough$

yep, mm hmm. ea82 all the way!

hey if i found a guy in the back of my car i would have taken him where he wanted to go. or at least gave him a head start. i would want someone to do for me the same! but thats me.

for 85 the non turbo fi were mpfi till the spfi came out midway thru 86

you are probobly 180 off. remember, there are 2 crank rotations for every one cam rotation. to double check the passenger side cam dot will be pointing around 10 o clock position at odeg tdc

although that dual exhaust is off an ea82, it came out oif an ea81 BRAT. so it will fit compared to the body the same the only real difference is how low the pipe comes to clear the crossmember. example is that if you use an ea81 pipe on an ea82 car it wont clear the front crossmember. this is because of the cast iron egr ports on the ea81. you can take these off the ea81 and an ea82 pipe will be required to fit around the crossmember now with the egr ports there your exhaust may hang a little low? the egr ports have recessed bolts that hold it to the head, opposite holes. but if you take it off the other holes are there to use.

i know the front half that bolts to the brake booster is the same pattern. but the top on an ea82 is longer. so it may need modded or the holes slotted on top, or some cutting. but an ea82 pedal box is better than no pedal box:)

it will work. the plugs should be the same but if not you can splice them. depends on your driving, it will work but may suffer high rpm/turbo demand. trashwagon 6 does good with one, 87gl10 turbo

i dont have a picture of the back, but you can mount them bowlegged. just dont hit any curbs:) NOT RECOMMENDED

try checking the EGR. there is a solenoid that looks like this; make sure its working, hoses look good, or egr valve isnt bad. http://www.warpthree.com/milesfox/parts/100dollarpart.jpg read this too http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=28912&highlight=solenoid my 86 sedan does it, but if i turn the car off then back on it goes away. when it comes on by itself it goes away off and on

if you can find a subaru alternator with an orange band that will be a a 60 amp, the green ones are 30. sometimes you will find non-xt6 black ones, but some remans are painted black

yo i wouldn chance it if i were you, it takes only one time to get caught, take it from me. my luck hasnt been so good with driving, so i stay off the road till im legal. look up the law and maybe something like a receipt will get you by. tell your insurance the vin so you can cover yourself in the car. insurance will be more important than 'pending registration' in the long run. as far as the police stopping you they need a probable cause. but if they read a plate and the name comes back suspened, warrant, or the description does not match the description then there is your probable cause. so make sure you have all the right papers so the cop can see that you are really doing what you say you are doing
