Just curious, but why the move to aluminum if its heavier and more expensive? Will future customers have a choice of steel, aluminum or mixed?

The thread in the block is an NPT fitting, so I had to get a NPT to SAE adapter and then a brass "T". I put the idiot light sender in one of the open ports on the "T" and the oil pressure gauge on the other port. I also used teflon tape on all the threads in the system to ensure leak-free operation. I can get pics this weekend if you'd like.

My buddy and I will be there for sure!

These pads will fit on EA81 cars correct?

JC sports has been out of business for a few years now, but i can get you some NOS JC parts. PM me for details.

You're right, I'm sorry!

http://usmb.net/gallery/album287/Quattro_wheels?full=1 These suckers are off of Quattro San up at WWU. They say subaru on them and they are 13 inchers. QS is missing one or two center caps, so if anyone wants to donate a cap to the grand daddy of the WRX, PM me.

I have access to a bunch of old mags that have sube articles in them so I'd like to scan them and have one of the mods put them up so everyone can read them. Who should I contact for that?

This kid and the previous owner need a healthy beating.

I was reading this article I found in my engineering class and I read this passage: http://usmb.net/gallery/album215/IMG_0902 and it appears that I have a GL-10 Turbo wagon! I guess they couldn't fit the 10 on the rear emblem!

$4500 seems awfully $alty for a loyale. Go lower, even if it is rare thats just too much, these aren't collectable cars.

Haven't doodled with it yet, I don't want to fart around with anything until the engine gets replaced in this car.

There is gonna be a lot more of this stuff surfacing in the near future as I dig around up here (Note the EA81 diesel heads I posted in another thread).

Has anyone seen one of these factory on a subaru? This is in an 82 hatchback.

I'll find out, but here's a little treat: http://usmb.net/gallery/album287/Quattro_thingy

Yes, there were exparimental subaru diesel engines. I have proof and can get more! Once again, sorry for the pic quality, I think I've got the camera set correctly now. http://usmb.net/gallery/album287/EA81_Diesel

Hey guys, I found this engine at school and just thought I'd show what the hot technology in the 80's looked like, sorry for the bad pics, I'll get a new one soon: http://usmb.net/gallery/album287/EA81_intercooler?full=1

Hmmm, I wonder if it would make a difference on my car... How much was yours and where did you get it?

I remember someone stating that cavaleir rotors were a match for an XT6 or something. Anyone else remember this?

Thanks Galen, your RA :cool:

My FSM says the curb weight for an 84 4WD turbo wagon is 2500lbs

Interested in selling the trans and rear diff?

It is very do able. A few people have done it. Dr. RX was one of the first and he can give you all the needed info.

I'll be looking to get some of that footage!

Eric, thats pretty slick. Have fun with this one for me while I'm at school!
