  1. Hey Aaron, I just saw your message :o

    Yep I am still in Dallas. I don't know if your cell phone is still the same but mine is 469 682 6557. Talk to you soon.

  2. Hey, Are you still around.

    Sorry i havent been in contact, I got really busy with my new job.

     

    Talk to you later.

  3. yeay, she runs and she runs good and smooth. I think i will warranty out those plugs anyways. i also need to make some new bearings for the timing belt tensioner and pulleys. They will work for now, but they are a little loose for my taste. Ive got an extra set now that i can take measurements from and make some new ones. If they work well then i will see if i can make a limited run, i sure enough people on the forums would like a new set of bearings for there xt6. But this is just me talking for now. Next up is replacing my pads and rotors. I also need a new clutch, but im not sure what brand or quality i want. Thanks again for all the help. defiantly get an xt6 beataru. -- im thinking now that the reason that the rpms climbed so vigorously is because my foot was on the gas for all 6, and when it broke only 3 were fireing, eh dosent make much sence, but tis all i can think of for now.
  4. will do, i will do this first thing after work. thanks
  5. thankyou thankyou, yes that sounds like the problem. I did replace the plugs wires distributor and rotor. I work at an Orelly's, so i get that sort of stuff cheap, and in this case free because they were still under my 1 year warranty. I will tear that thing down again and flip a cam, dose it matter which one i flip, i don't remember seeing this in the service manuals, although i was in a bit of a hurry when i did it so i could have missed it.
  6. well i got a new set for a guy richardstanly (or something like that, sorry i cant remember the sn off the top of my head) witch took alot longer than expected, anyways i got them and installed them. In the process i found the problem, the passenger side tensioner had seized up and welded together, ill post pics when i take them. So i replaced everything in there with some decent pulleys and put her all back together. Now it runs with 6 cylinders instead of just 3 but it still runs like its on 3. I did the timing, i did the timing belts like the book said, i even made a special hold down tool for the funky springloaded tensioner, and i had to helicoil 3 bolt holes in the process. So to get to the point... how do i get my horses back. my mechanic friend (no a subie specialist but hes been around) says i ether have a burned up valve, stuck valve, clogged cat, incorrect compression, or a bent valve, or i need a new O2 sensor. but my understanding is that this engine is non interfering so the bent valve thing cant happen right? as of now it runs decent and idles rough when cold, when warmed up it idles smoother and revs good, but has no power and backfires when the engine is under load. any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks guys. p.s. my girlfriend thinks my car is in its grave, and wants me to get it outta her driveway, and the "its a classic subie" dose not sway her. so the faster i convince her its a sound drivable car the sooner i get home to a smile.
  7. we don't even really need the part number, if you can give us specific information on the original vehicle this transmission was installed in or some leads on helping us find the part numbers then we can get closer to a quote.
  8. soooo, dose anyone really want this transmission. We cant look up prices and availability if no one gives us anything to look up. :-p
  9. well, good to know it was that simple. The one thing i would check if someone else is having an overheating problem, and its not the aux fan. The ~3/8in hose going to the throttle body, mine had a tiny pin prick hole in it for like 6 months and i couldn't figure out why i was loosing coolant, smelling coolant, and running just a little bit hot. Those tiny coolant line hoses going over the engine seem to get neglected a lot, and they don't seem to get enough pressure to burst but they like to crack. Just my 2 cents.
  10. its the stock brembo kit for the car. Brembo stopped manufacturing the rear brake rotors in like 98, according to my sources. Nothing really special, but still better then going with Eccentric or other ************ty brands.
  11. yeay, i found someone with a spare set on the temp xt6.net, i will be getting the pulleys in the next couple of weeks, nextweek i plan to do prep work to the engine block, and im going to change all my drivi train gear oil. I can get all royal purple on sale so o think i will just do that, and i also got all my brembo brakes in from my distirbuter. lots o work ahead.
  12. yeay, I'm so happy you finally got an account.
  13. well i went to my subaru dealer ship and tryed to cross refrence the part # and it didnt work.... ... thinking... ... wait!!! i own a loyale with a ea82 in it. I can just look. yeay!!! thanks for helping me discover the obvious.
  14. oh... damn it. I explained on the other forum. To beable to ship a car thats less that 25 years old it must be disassembled in Japan and reassembled in the US for it to be imported legaly. That way its considered a kit car. For a better explanation of the process ktsubaru can explain. I just help him with finding customers, i don't know the process very well myself for whole cars.
  15. I though I explained already? Oh and ktsubaru my friend, and actually he is the main reason that we can import these cars to the states. He finally got an account on this site.
