i always wondered why nobody has done that yet, if you wanna go through all the trouble. get the rear disc backing plate, and take two front calipers, and drill new holes in the backing plate, space as nessecary and hook up the cable, like toyota, or any other rear emergency brake car.

mine worked just fine, but i never had the need to use it. i would realy rather use the emergency brake, if i am ever in that situation. i disconnected mine, with the ea82 swap and dont miss it at all =]

the egr shouldnt do anything at idle, unless its leaking air directly into your manifold. otherwise it might be your carb.

or your wastegates poopin out. you can usually hear a bad boost leak.

200 for two turbos? whats the problem here? unless your at a u pull yard, thats as good as it gets i think. -
dont let not having a lift stop you. my non lifted one goes everywhere my buddies lifted one does i just might have to hit it a little faster.
-
maybe i missed it, but how come the interior is full of smoke, and the cars shootin white stuff, before the race? sounds fun as hell, wish there was stuff like that around here. damn midwest!_!

Another Accell super coil Dead
archemitis replied to 78TurboBrat's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
parts break sometimes, and since thereshundreds of peepl here on the board and like 10 of them have had problems, it doesnt nessecarily mean they are all doomed to break. mine works good still, and doesnt leak, or about 5k miles now. i always have a spare one under the seat, and when something goes wrong, i check it first. it looks cool too. isnt there some warrantee? -
the thing i like the best about blocking it off, is that your intake will stay alot cleaner. along with a pcv rerouting, and you intake will stay shiney inside, even after lotsa miles.

i live in minneapolis, and my dog hangs out on the porch. not too many subarus pass, but when one does, he looks out the window, like its me comin down the road. even animals know!_!
-
suonds cool, but the 1.8 turbo brat, a few posts down, would still smoke your v8!_! cast iron blocks are for suckers
-
i tried my damndest to pull him out, with my hatch. but he outweighs me by like 700lbs so it was useless.
-
run it in 4x! matching tires and good fluid in your diff, and tranny is about all you can do, as far as i know. or switch to awd =p

efi rools, i was at work yesterday talkin to a guy that builds gyrocopters(not commercially ). he said he uses subaru mpfi and an ea82 on one of his choppers. he was there wanting to buy two 115 hp harley watercooled motors, for his next one!_! those are efi too. if its good enough for air its good for the ground. hehe i like efi, but carbs work good too, as long as its not a hitachi with 130k miles on it.=]

What causes that Subaru ticking?
archemitis replied to Subafly's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
my ea81 hydro ticks very loudly, and has for 20k miles now, i have tried everything. cept a new pump. that car has 111 k miles on it, i als o have an ea82 that ticked, last it ran, and had just started after i let a cousin borrow it for a summer =P its got 127k i think its from poor maintenance,(both these cars had black black oil when i got them) if you dont change your oil enough, it will make your lifters crap out sooner than they should. -
ea82 oil pump inspection
archemitis replied to David C's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
my ea81 pump i tok apart was actually catching at one part,on the gerator, and clicked past it :-\ with only 111k miles. i replaced it(the gerator gear thingy) with one with 180k on the ticker, and it stoped tickin. you can measure it with a feeler guage too i believe. -
ea82 power!_! that is all you will hear from me

EA-81 in trike, not cooling like it should
archemitis replied to dritchie's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
i like 180degree thermostats. looks like a summer (mostly) vehicle, so it should help. might be as simple as adding an inch of space where the radiator is mounted, or making a scoup to direct air flow. or oil coolers are cool , and you could stick one right in the air flow, they make a huge difference. looks like fun
