Yours has Torx bits for the rear plate? I've only seen them with #3 Philips screw heads (On 3 different motors) The problem with attemping to replace the rear main is, pressing the new one in square, a little bit off and it will leak (Probably worse then before)

Amazing how many views this thread has had in little over a year. On-going build thread / Journey of TW10.

Just got Fel-Pro valve cover seals today, took the covers off, cleaned them up and have now painted them a deep mica red with silver "SUBARU" lettering. Pics tomorrow.

Yep, been following your thread. Oh, that just looks like a build up of oil, dirt and grease. Mine had the same thing (keeps it from rusting)

I bet your "Caked grease" was from a bad axle boot that has been replaced. Yes, pulling these Subaru engines are very easy.

I had that thought of putting H3 Halogens in place of the reverse light bulbs, Man that would be super bright!

No, please, feel free to post the pictures. Feeds my addiction

Damn, now I was a set!! Maybe I'll just have to drop the money and do it. But not until I get this thing to stop pissing oil and running right again with a new O2 sensor. Why does Japan always get the better stuff and the crap is handed to the USDM and EDM? Lol.

Is there anything else thats different about them besides the clear Ambers? I haven't seen them in person. Damn those Deep 8mm!

Next up will be JDM Tail lights I think, just waiting to find a set on ebay that don't have a $95 Shipping-Charge from Hong Kong. I am also going to replace Cam and Crank seals along with Valve cover seals and groumets in the coming week or so. "The thread that never ends"

Check for rust in the rear wheel wells (Where the coil over bolts to the body) also check out the rockers under the car and the sub-frame rails, these are typical spots on the older Subarus (Along with newer Subarus) Don't be afraid to pick at it, its best to remove stuff and discover the rust before it gets out of hand Cheers.

I dunno, I have seen an '84 GL sedan from Monona at a Junkyard, and it was not "Swiss-Cheese" But either way, a lot of structure rust can be fixed as I have seen. EA82s are good vehicles, just give it some basic care and it'll last (Mine has) -Tom

I spy a metal oil seperator!

3 Deep in Leganus...!

Swapped struts around on my buddy Jon's two Legacys. Red Brighton now has Outback struts, and the Green Legacy L has Standard struts.

Lol, LOVE IT!

Thats why I eliminated all the ABS crap on mine and pulled the bulb. ABS is garbage, it keeps you from controlling the vehicle in split second decisions in winter etc, I like being able to lock the wheels up to reposition my self.

The only problem with the JDM lights, they have the projector lens which I find, hinders some light output.

HIDs installed. Best investment you can make in any vehicle.

Politicians are like sewers, they are all full of sh*t...

My lights are adjusted correctly, they shoot up just as high as my Toyota FJ, That has stock Halogen bulbs and people still flash at it, they also light up the interior of Small cars, again, they are completely stock. I found out, the HIDs make people move over, probably cause they can't stand being hit in both mirrors Fun fact, I was behind two officers last night, one was a Trooper in which I passed cause he was going to slow. Didn't have any issue with either of them. I am also not a fan of the Projector style, I prefer the entire housing being lit up.
