did he try the Chevy cavalier option? or is that for the fronts?
-
With the rear you're suck with xt6 parts. You also need xt6 front control arms, our the ability to team the ball joint mount on the ea82 arms. You seem to be reading the right posts. (i have my rear swap ready to go just need front stuff, and some )

88 subaru gl with ecm issues
zukiru replied to derekdee's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Ecm has nothing to do with headlights. But if I pull the headlight fuse in the interior fuse box by the driver door my headlight goes dim. So check that. -
I can't wait for snow either now that I have a 4wd xt. We only really get a dusting one a year or so. But I still can't wait!

Oh, this is a tough call.

The Awesome Older Generation Picture Thread

^^^how cool is that? what year was it? (nvm found it it was 1980) and people buy 6000 pound bricks with 5+ liter engines and complain about gas mileage. I love telling them how great the gas mileage is on the XT. -

Fel-Pro head gaskets for EA-82??
zukiru replied to cnc's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
awesome! the vics are only a buck more! after looking at the Haynes I also realized my ECU coolant sensor is in that crosspipe... haha thanks for the clarification, Fox. -

indeed we are! I honestly didn't see any that weren't blinged out... I hate chrome. -

wow I thought the same... (ej the loyale) but then you don't get any cash. it all boils down to what you need out of it. if you can't leave anything stock I imagine selling both for an impreza would give you something rewarding to tinker with. lots of after market body exhaust and wing crap to buy. honestly if I didn't love the unique-ness of the XT so much I would trade up to something faster and more easily tuned. (03 yellow WRX or 01 white/grey 2.5 RS) do you need money for bills? if you do then absolutely sell a car. -
Fel-Pro head gaskets for EA-82??
zukiru replied to cnc's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
usually not. two of the more common SVX mods are to bypass the throttle body coolant line and to add phenolic spacers. which both are done to keep the incoming air cool. (the spacers also effectively shift the powerband much like what would happen when you lengthen the intake runners.) I imagine if no nobody had tried it then it's for coolant flow reasons Edit: after looking at my haynes I realize that there its a throttle body coolant line to bypass. (won't need a pre-warmed tb here in Bama... ) -

Fel-Pro head gaskets for EA-82??
zukiru replied to cnc's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
wow glad I read this I was about to order felpro intake gaskets... how are the intake gaskets made by Victor? also what about blocking the cross over? wouldn't coolant still get to the other side via head passages? sorry random thought, but a lot of the time bypassing the intake manifold's coolant lines is a first performance mod. I'm sure that since no one is doing it there's a good reason. -

zukiru replied to Loyale 2.7 Turbo's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Haha! I had an invader style cf hood on my ford zx2 (my actual photo) And I had a sound activated light in the opening. It would glow when I revved. In my defence, I was 24, and I worked in the stage lighting business. -
Ooh cool how difficult is that?
-
which is why the tank/sender/gauge being fixed was my first suggestion. if I came off as a jerk, I apologize. but not knowing how much gas you have almost always eventually leads to running out. which is bad with an old fuel system.

did he by bug spray? I missed that part of the post.

that car is gorgeous. if I had the 1300 right now... just a few hours from home too.

scared of the wiring/ who has a FWD EJ swap?
zukiru replied to zukiru's topic in Subaru Retrofitting
thanks everyone! my confidence is rising! -
I suggest fixing the gauge, then adding some gas.
