I got a odd one for you my 88 3 door cel is on when its cold say 40f when first start it up in the morning to leave for work but when i leave for lunch break it goes off so, what do you think it is I haven't had the time to pull the codes yet but i will this weekend in til then i'll drive the rs

your going to put this trans in a n/a EA 82 xt aren't you it will pull down on hill 5th then (but thats in stock form I don't know what you have done to yours so, its up to how torque it makes below 3500rpm) but that said mine will pull down on a very steep long hill (it handles hills not the interstate fine there is one stetch highway that i travel often i do have to down shift on aka us 19 between abington va & leban va.) but I just down shift 4th and it can just about peg the speedo out going up hill but that with 155hp 167tq at the flywheel oh by the way how fast are your xts and xt6s

it been a while a i'll and add one more 88 rs once 4wd now 2wd for gas milage little roo 1980 1800 gl auto sedan old blue

the ea 82 5spd 2wd trans is not the same here are the gear ratios to compair 1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th final EA 81 5spd 3.307 1.950 1.266 .885 .725 3.70 EA 82 5spd 3.636 1.950 1.344 .971 .783 3.90 before changed the trans i was getting 27 city 34 highway after 31 city 37-41 highway cruising at 60-70mph i like the gear ratio alot better you can get up to highway speeds faster and 1st gear isn't nearly as low so, its not the just get you moving gear that it was with the 5spd fulltime 4wd d/r trans that was in it

nice car i had one just like it in high school

its not a rx but its a rs turbo mildly modded with high comp carb pistons bigger valves, shaved heads, delta cams, intercooled and 9psi boost and it will peg the speedo and keep on going the fastest i've had is about 5600rpm in 5th (I think that is about 140mph) that with a 2wd 5spd ea81 trans i put in it to get better gas milage on the interstate the gear ratio of this trans is .725 in 5th and a final drive of 3.70 I've had my 80 1800 gl auto sedan's speedo pegged with the tach @ redline going down hill

under that cover is where the factory fog light switch would of ben the one nearest to the vent is where the rear gate power lock switch is on the 85s and 86s

86 gl wagon 5spd dr 564k orginal bottom end 88 rs 5spd awd turbo 127k on body 7k on ej22t 80 1800 gl auto sedan 70k all orginal

why not just drop in a ej 20 its almost the same weight as an ea81 so, it handles as well as it ever did and will last forever but, I guess you could put a crappy old v8 in it that weights 3 times as much as the ej20 has 4 times the parts to ware out and if you baby it you mite get 100k out of it before a rebuilt or maybe your just afraid of wiring and ecu's

I don't know whats wrong with your car but i would like to know

sweet video I need to make one sometime

my rs gets 35mpg most of the time but when i drove out and back from seattle it got 43 though the plains

My 86 wagon has 563k on it and thats the orginal bottom end I don't know how my aunt drove it before it went throw three of her boys when they were in high school but I know how i drive it 5000k a shift its seen redline at many red lightes and before the lift and the 27s it seen 75-80 in third gear at few ps. burns a quart to a 1000 miles no leaks http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/photos/showphoto.php?photo=4800&cat=500&ppuser=2104&sl=8 from a few monthes ago

1980 1800 gl auto sedan 5yrs 86 5spd d/r wagon 3yrs 88 rs 1yr

for the life of me i can't seem to find out to get the rear bumper off I can't seem to find the bolts their not in the same place as the wagons so, where are they

hey if you need any more help I'm here to (423)246-4382

also mine is silver with 91,000k on it and was a one owner til last july when I saved it the 70 year old woman was going to let her grandson take it to the crusher because it had set in her yard since 95 because the dealer didn't know what was wrong with it or so, I was told. I gave her $50 for it pulled it 2 miles to my dads farm and once it was there it took me hour or so, to get it running (replaced computer, coil, disty) since then I've had to place the clutch so while had the motor out it got resealed the heads shaved bigger valves and delta cams.

my 3 door had rs badging and its a 88 5spd 2wd spfi with ground effects and spoiler but hear is the really odd part its got a DL head light setup

that gear ratio ONLY came in the ea81 2wd tranny it was never in any 5spd mt 4wd trannys EA81 MT 2wd 1st 3.07 2nd 1.950 3rd 1.266 4th .885 5th .725 reverse 3.583 final drive 3.70 EA82 MT 5spd S/R & D/R 4wd 1st 3.636 2nd 1.950 3rd 1.344 4th .971 5th .780 reverse 3.583 final drive 3.90

No thats the ea81 5spd 2wd tranny and only hatches and wagons got it so, they are getting to be rare but I happen to have one lying around.

your lucky if you can run 87 in you rigs all of my cars ping on 87 only one stock though the other two aren't (decked heads delta cams) all of them get 93

know their orginal

I used gl-5 80w 90 valveline and lucas It just made it a little quiter but its still roaring it 4th and 5th it is the trans not a wheel bearing or a tire it even does it with the wheels in off the gound and not under load of any kind so, whats next will the ea81 tranny go in without too much troble (clutch disk splines the same?) if it will its going in if not i'll be riding the lifted wagon which has almost 600,000 miles on it which wouldn't normally bother me i love my but being 400 miles from home and my tools worries me it likes to brake stuff but that could because everytime I drive it I'm going wheeling

my 3door has just started making a nasty winening noise in 4th and 5th gear the car only has 125,000 on it and i know this is not normal for a soob (being that i've owned 11 in my time) so any quick fixes to hold me over til spring break (in collage 400 miles form my other roos i don't want to drive back home to get the wagon right now ) I know it not the clutch its new and just changed the tranny's oil too and its full. Now here is my next ? has anybody on the board put ea81 2wd 5spd trans in a ea82 car thats 5spd 2wd I'm asking because i have one and think it would get better gas milage with that trans here are the final drive and 5th gear ratio's EA82 2wd 5spd final: 3.90 5th: .780 RPM @ 70mph: 3159 EA81 2wd 5spd final: 3.70 5th: .725 RPM @ 70mph: 2786

I'll try to make it. it will be the three doors first road trip
