Are XT6 Rear Axles Different/Special ?
carfreak85 replied to MorganM's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
The axles are stronger IIRC and the differential is the same as other subes. -
I agree with Dan. Having a factory EJ DR tranny would be the sweetest thing in the world! Someday...
-
Well at least we know how you'd do it!
-
Do the MAF swap then get one of those nifty fuel computers and use it to alter the the signal so it will work. I think that set up would net a few hp if not more.
-
Go for it!

161 Awhp, 206 Awtq!!!!!!!!!!

Did you only make one pull per boost level? -
Having the 4" lift in front will lower the amount of cutting needed to fit 28" tires.

I don't know, but don't put a WRX master cylinder in your car just to say you have one. Unless they have the same bore diameter, it will severly screw up your stock brake bias and make your brakes very poor in general.

That is the stupidest thing Subaru has ever done. Ugly, heavy (4200lbs), ugly, underpowered (250hp, 217lbft), ugly, not an SUV (Lack of ground clearance), ugly, no manual offered and finally, FUGLY! What the hell were they thinking? If this is the wave of the futrue for subaru, I might be looking tword a manufacturer who takes their cars seriously.
-
From what company?
-
One thing Subaru talks about in some press releases is the fact that you can roll down your window with the door open and sit on the top of the door while bouncing up and down and the door will still close perfectly. Also the use of a frameless window is safer. You can put your hand in the window portion of the door and slam it and the window will not crush your hand, but it will also not deform at all. I accidently tried the latter on a volvo that belonged to my friend's parents when I was in elementry school and the results were less than steller. I have tried both of these tricks on my Dad's WRX and they work. Try it in your volvo and let me know the results! (Try it in the sube, but not the volvo.)

Maybe excessive carbon buildup in the cylinders or other hot spots?

valve train swap?
carfreak85 replied to LPGsuperchargedBrumby's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Yes. -
EA81 flywheel stopper EA81 valve adjuster lots more, but i need to see what there is before commiting to anything else.
-
The engine side was worse. The tranny side didn't want to move, sot it was preserved. That ugly coffin/porta potty is our yard waste bin.
-
So I finally got around to pulling the clutch on my hatchback. It hasn't been driven in months due to a bum clutch, but little did I know how bum the clutch really was! I DO know how to drive a manual, so its not like I was ignorant, this clutch just really gave up the ghost, also was abused by a few local kids before I got it stuck.
-
Got any pics? I've never seen a sube on its side (Roof, yes), so for now, I'm calling your bluff!
-
Here is that pic, and by the way the "snow" was some sort of insulation.
-
Technically there is no OBD connector because these cars are MUCH older than the first legislation that required OBD.

How to disassemble CV
carfreak85 replied to carfreak85's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Well I know I'll be breaking something tomorrow! -
I'm just wondering what is involved in getting the outer splined stub shaft disconnected from the axle. Haven't dived into the FSM yet, but if nobody speaks up, I may be forced to.

Ed, why such a funny oil change schedule?
