AMEN! Those flairs wouldn't be bad but what I picture is more like WRX or Mitsu Starion fender flairs. For the front fenders it would be cool if the flairs were intigrated into the fender and the rears could be rivited or blended into the existing fenders.

Looks great! I really like that red on gold combo, I wonder why? Keep me in mind if you decide to change the wheels!!!

I have no clue. I wanted to grab the tranny, but my old man was against it.

Did you notice the blue XT behind it?

Don't forget about us EA81 guys! If you can make a hood with all the same options as the EA82 guys are talking about, that would be killer!

Id pay $200-250 for an OEM style hood, $300 for one with provisions for hod scoops and $200 for flaired front fenders and bolt on flairs for the rear of my EA81 wagon.

I'd be interested in the CF brat hood, or even FG. Can you give us a rough estimate of cost for both these options?

Its been a long time since this has been updated, so I figure I'll drop some news. QS's original engine has been removed and is about to be rebuilt. The spare engine that we have (The one with roller rockers) is being rebuilt too. Unfortunatly, I've been temporarily bumped from this project, but I'll do my best to make sure the guys working on the engines do a good job.

This car was abandoned in the Central parking lot at the Summit at Snoqualmie. Engine was gone, tranny was still there. The rear glass was busted out and some other stuff was missing.

Need pics and more detailed description of the part.

Hmmmm, projector headlights? This sounds interesting... Wonder what the beam pattern is like...

There were issues with the turbos in 83. In 84 the factory started authorizing a water cooling package be installed on all EA81Ts that were sold or whose owners brought them in. My 84 turbo is watercooled.

Sticker under the hood tells what the car was sold as and the little metal plackard in the driver's door jam is the actual birthday, IIRC.

How would you route the tube through the radiator?

Sedans are stiffer.

My vote is no. Keep RXs for what they were intended for, rally and street.

WRX struts and springs lower a Forester by about 2 inches front and rear and the OBS struts are only .5"- 1" taller than the WRX package, so go with Forester springs and struts.

I agree with the idea of a $50 core. $150 does not scare me off personally, considering what other aftermarket adjustable cam gears run. Would it cost any more when you start making them with aluminum hubs?

Very hot! What do you think a set of these will run?

Nice! Glad it found a good home. I'll have to come check it out some time.

This may be really obvious, but have you removed your anti-roll bar? That will help some. T-case will help. I notice you mentioned a LSD, but have you considered a welded rear diff?

What? And skip right over the EA81s?

Do It!!!

What about rear pads? Does Carbotech have an application specifically for the rear subaru calipers? Also, I've been looking at PBR metal master pads, has anyone had any experience using these pads in a performance application?

This company is out of buisness IIRC. Yes it is DIY and depending on the construction and materials used, it can be worth $155, however that one held no special merits other than it was designed to fit our cars.
