Oook, Scratch the Troll idea Hey thats pretty cool, Finaly some pics of a real setup (for Better idea) SJR Wompus, Sounds like a new part listing

What about trolls?

Oh oh oh! I see now, thats a damn good idea. Looks easy enough aswell. So is this gonna be a rig that you can drive to a meet, or will it need to be trailer-ed in? Guessing from everything I've seen on this build, it won't be driven to the meet. Anyway, looking forward to see this rigged up on the sedan

+1 to the Air Shocks, I really like that pivot idea and it does make sense. Now on that pivot piece that comes off the upper framing, whats gonna go on the bottom of that, is it just gonna be a domed piece of solid metal and then that cross bar/brace will ride on it, or are you gonna have some type of rubber bumper to cushion it? Not really a big concern at the moment, but I'm just wondering

Oh, my eyes were deceiving me big time Haha. Well you have the extra power of a EJ22 you wouldn't notice any wind catch/bogg Nice rig! -Tom

Thats interesting, so it pivits on that center brace? Whats that setup called? First time I've seen something like that, I'm used to 3 or 4 links. Nice Datsun too Lol. Hack away at that sedan! zzz

Mugs, Looks good, must really catch the wind? Is that an EA81 in there? -Tom

Excelent job, I like that!! Really looks custom, but not to homemade. I think I would bring the entire bumper out from the body about an 1" or 1-1/2" looks a little to close for my. I like it though -Tom

Either way, it looks good! I think the only think I would have changed was the mound looking sides on the front most part of the side rail (I like how the rearwards ones look, little longer) But all in all, it looks good, and you know its not gonna break. -Tom

Well a few years ago, I removed the rear wiper motor ('92 Loyale wagon) cause the motor was getting stuck helf way, So I wanted to take it apart and lubricate it nicely. Well I disided to remove the Armature (Bad idea) the brushes popped out and almost lost the springs that they push against. And I did this all outside at the back of the car, needless to say it took my like 45min to get those brushes back in and everything seatted again. then I finaly lubed the motor and works just like new and still does. That was the worst thing I can remember. Warning: DO NOT UNCAREINGLY PULL ARMATURE APART ON AN ELECTRIC MOTOR ASSEMBLY! -Tom

+1 Ya know, Bill, Jeff, Scott, Rob, ect.. Wheel the hell out of there rigs and non of their bolts come loose (Things break before a bolt loosens or breaks) I mean, this is not rocket science - we're not building computers, Its a Subaru. -Tom

Heres another picture of an '86 RX (Sedan) Not sure if you've seen this already. -Tom

Nipper, Cotter pins are what your thinking of? That keep the castel nut from loosening. I dunno, I always use bolts/nuts and the proper lockwasher when needed. I also use zip-ties for dumb things that arn't a big deal (Timing covers, hoses and the like) I really don't know what you could hold on/up with bailling wire - except the exhaust, and a door closed Lol! -Tom

Holy cow! Thats luck at its finest right there boy, geez! Funny how much a you depend on a lockwasher. -Tom

Ben, think about this first.... I can't drive after midnight due to having a Probationary licence, which will expire Dec 11th 2010. Once this one expires then I get my real licence. You have a Probationary licence for 2 years. mines almost done! YAY. Scott, nah. Its cool. I'm not worried about it. My luck I would need to retard it anyway (Pre-ignition if I don't run 92/93 octain.) Might just be carbon build up somewhere causing this though...? Hmm. Alright, to keep this thread fair aswell. I did take my car to the carwash lastnight Lol. To cold to hand wash it. Rob, wheels look badass! Those will look great on that the SVX! Whoot!!

LOL! WIMP!! How dare you sir...! I'll get my chance to come out to IA someday (You guys going anywhere?) Don't think so Only problem I have is my licence, I can't drive after midnight. So it would be kinda hard on coming back to WI, I would have to leave kinda early sunday to get back to WI before midnight (I ain't staying at no motel on the way To or From) and the car should't breakdown, I have enough new crap on that engine! Lol.

Lol, I know. Wheres this being held? Which state? I doubt I'll make it but we'll see. Would be cool to get Miles and Scott and any other WI Subaru guys to caravan to the mid-west meet with me!

Scott, Lol! I really need a timing gun, want to check my disty timing. Rob, Aaa! Putting the Brat to work as it was intended for I see I havn't done anything for a while, but I am going to a Soob meet this sunday! So that counts for something eh? -Tom

Where did you buy yours?

How are your Plugs and Coil? If either are week your not getting good spark, which will make it not want to fire up right away, Or it could be a clogged/clogging fuel filter, which it right up by the wiper motor. Check those are and see if that helps Could also be a sticking float in the carb. -Tom

Rally Pig sticker FTW!! LOL!

I only see one around town, its lifted, big tires, light bar, ticks like crazy. 5spd!

Hey thats pretty cool! Looks nice with the lift and tires. Are the hub lockers automatic, or do you have to turn them by hand? They make kits for auto lockers when it engauges into 4WD I would have to change it to a hardtop though, still sweet for $ two fidy! -TJD

+1 to that! I too like the color, that red was just to much of an eye sore (Even thru the net Lol) Eat rice, don't drive it. -Tom
