Z32 300ZXTTs had 4ws. They had a hydrolic system. Lost of manufacturers in the 80s and early 90s played around with 4ws, some active (Like the Nissan and Mitsus) while many were passive (ie, the rear suspension geometry had toe out under certain conditions and points during its travel.

Thats what I was thinking of offering, but I just wanted to check in with you guys. Any other Ideas? What other problems should I look for on these old cars? What usually breaks/wears out on them?

A 79 DL 4wd wagon with some rust repair, most rust not fixed. Not much in the way of cancer, but enough rust to take a second look at. Missing cowl and mismatched panels. The tranny is locked, so it needs to be replaced, I have a spare tranny so thats not a problem. The car has 133K or 233K, can't be sure, but it looks like the higher number. I'll try to get pics up soon, but so far, what is a good price? The owners left the car in a parking lot because of the tranny and left a note on the dash stating that they were trying to get a tow dolly. I left my number and they called me, so things seem to be swinging in my favor.

I think if the sixth digit in the vin or something like that is a 6 then it is an RX, but if its a 5 then its a fully loaded GL. It also wouldn't be SPFI, as far as I know all RX's are MPFI. Noting that, I don't think it is an RX.

What is hornet racing?

Rob, emailed you!

Thanks, I'll stop by the dealer today and see what they can do for me.

Bump to the top

Drop me a line next time your gonna be in Bellevue! Dan (Lepetitprince) and I would be happy to hang out with you and show you around!

Well, I see Corky for sure, but he's really hard to miss!!! Kust kidding Corky!

Dealer, junkyard...

Why didn't you stop by?!?!?

Anyone got pics? For those who mounted EA82 rear bars to EA81 cars, can I get some pics of you installation?

So if you go to ultimatesubaru.org, we are the Ultimate Subaru Club. If you go to the forum page we are still the Ultimate Subaru Message Board. Which are we? I like USMB. USC sounds weird after being the USMB for so long.

Good thing Dan and I smuggled ours in then!

Got pics of your RX? Id love a clean RX someday!

I keep telling you guys, my MSD is on its THIRD car in as many years and still running strong!

My buddies brat has a toasted 1st gear syncro. Grinds unless you are at a stop and sometimes pops out when its warmed up.

Sweet! You still want that gauge cluster?

Do what will make you happy!~ If you don't like the pugs, sell them to fund the 5 lug. I think you'll be happier that way because then you can fit impreza brakes on the front.

Why not just get a WRX engine? STi engines are still really expensive and legacy turbo engines are getting more rare every day!

Daniel is a wuss! Daniel is a wuss! Daniel is a wuss! Daniel is a wuss! Daniel is a wuss! Daniel is a wuss! Daniel is a wuss! My car has PS, but its a TURBO so its ok...

I don't think a rio weighs 1600 lbs. A lotus elise weighs about that much and it is a much smaller, lighter car than any kia.

Perhaps your clutch is not disengaging all the way. You might check the adjustment on the clutch cable.

Mine is 84 turbo with cruise.
