  1. Found it. For those who are interested in this table its here: http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=12566&highlight=spring+rates
  2. What about sizes for the rest of the EA82s? It would be cool to have a list of diameters so one could tune their car with different size bars!
  3. Are the front rotors on an EA82 larger than on a vented EA81? If they are, would the larger caliper and rotor bolt onto the EA81 hub? Second, could someone find the specs for 2WD EA81 front springs and shocks as well as the same info for EA82 front springs if they are interchangeable?
  4. Which EA82 had the largest rear sway bar? I think its the XT6 or turbo wagon, but I'm not sure.
  5. Sorry, I resroted the pics last night. hers the new link: http://usmb.net/gallery/album216?page=2The cool thing about these wheels is that they are SO DAMN 80'S!!! These will be a complete set for sure! GD, how long ago was this? Would you be able to hook me up?
  6. I think they are COOL! I know one other set exists, so might have to pester the owner of that set.
  7. I found three of these wheels on an early EA81 wagon in a yard today! Too bad its not a complete set! They are DAMN light however, so I will look into getting the cracks fixed and find a fourth wheel. pics can be seen here: http://usmb.net/gallery/album217
  8. I want to adjust my drums and do some tests then slap on the discs and do some more tests. Then I'll post here. When ever that'll be, gotta get my engine rebuilt first!
  9. That is bitchen'!!!! If I had the will power, That would already be on a cargo ship on its way here! Too bad I don't have the money...
  10. The locking switch activates the center diff, not the rear. The rear diff with those tranny tends to be a LSD, not a selectable diff.
  11. So what would you recomend we use? If armoral is bad, I want to know what I should be using instead.
  12. Head hung low, while digging in the dirt with the toe of his shoe, our hero quietly mutters: "I was kinda partial to the factory blue..."
  13. Kumho Venture MTs are around $70 and last for a long time.
  14. NO NO NO NO!!! The most important thing you can do is to see if the front and rear diffs are the same. If they are, then we can put LSDs in the tranny and have an STi style drivetrain!
  15. Cool, that means I won't have to get a bigger flywheel at the J/Y this weekend!
  16. What size is the clutch on a 2wd non turbo XT?
  17. Would somebody be willing to snag the little rubber slide that keeps power steering fluid from dribbleing onto the belts? Does anyone know what I'm talking about?
  18. Ben, your OBS was sticking in her lane!!! "Oh she should have swerved!" "Oh that sex crazed teen tried to side swipe me!", its all relitive!!! But that does suck!
  19. There are two good ways of getting the tar off. First is to get a bunch of liquid nitrogen and pour in onto the tar, then use a hammer and chisel to break off big 'ole sheets of the tar. Barring that, use a hot air gun and a big, stiff putty knife to scrape it off, beware of burns though! On a side note, the tar in my turbo wagon was old enough that it kinda flaked off when I cut a larger hole for my 5 speed shifter.
  20. No good flywheel will vibrate, unless you cut a chunk out or welded something on. Not even in the EA82, they are designed to spin, vibration and spinning are not good friends. I have an EA82 flywheel on my turbo wagon and during my test drives, it never vibrated (I used a lengthened 1-pc driveshaft). My bet is that the driveshaft is not stright (If you used a 2-pc shaft) or that its not balanced (If its a 1-pc). or a wheel whight fell off or mud on the rim or something silly like that.
  21. I thought that you were supposed to fill your tank the whole way up so that no moisture would be able to get in and corrode the inside of the tank.
  22. Don't you love parts cars?!?! They make life SOOOOOO much easier! Replace it for sure! Why use old, rebuilt parts when there are good, original parts to be had?
  23. So if I want big valve heads on my 82 brat block, I'd need the lifters, push rods and rocker arms? Am I missing something or did I add something thats not necessary?
