TheLoyale

EFI is better in my opinion then Carb, no worries on elevation, no worries on cold starts and more power, plus the SPFI system of the 1987-94 EA82 is pretty reliable (I've never had an issue) I am just now getting into Carbs with the EA81, gonna see which I prefer more.

Helpful link thanks to McBrat. http://www.indysworld.com/80s/general/wheels/wheels.html The center hole looks to be possible 2" in diameter?

WOW, this is gonna look cool!

I remember something similar like this when on in the Subaru Alliance, Xbeerd wanted an XT6 dash in his Loyale, after going over it and going over it, he decided that getting the unique heater controls to work and that the dash curve was different, that it was time to move on. Also, an XT6 steering wheel will NOT fit on an EA82 steering shaft. XT6 may be based on the EA82 chassis, but there are a lot of changes (Kinda like Chaz Bono, bases on a Girl, but has a lot of changes) As for the Brat, I'm looking forward to seeing an EA82 Gauge cluster in there!

They offered Jackmans in 14" as well... Perhaps something like this would work. http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-3-4-APPLIANCE-HONEYCOMB-WESTERN-WHEEL-MUSTANG-SALEEN-CENTER-CAPS-70mm-/270912860049?hash=item3f13aa2f91&item=270912860049&pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&vxp=mtr#ht_500wt_977

The front valance/rad support is rotted and crumbling. The skid plate bolts to that (Like an EA82) The crashbar bolts to the underside of the bumper, it doesn't offer any support to the Valance. Just testing the waters, figured I should see if I can make some money back on this car. Perhaps just strip it, sell off the goods and junk the shell.

Found another Ski picture.

Is the chrome crash bar in from of the EA81 worth anything? The chrome part looks nice as I polished it, the black part could use a repaint. Was gauging selling it.

That is interesting, a Trophy truck Brat HA! Hope it has Long travel shocks... :cool:

Automotive Engine Rebuilders on Arcadian is a good shop, my neighbor has his bottom end redone on his V6 4-Runner. Couldn't hurt to ask them some Qs.

Right on man The welds are good I think, nice penetration and no holes, and its solid. The spot welds in the center of the sheet are for more rigidity (And yes, it does help) The floor is as solid as it was originally.

This is where the simplistics of Electronic Fuel Injection come into play, No worries what so ever I think the stock jets will work just fine for all your needs, I also don't know why you need so many block off caps...? From every other Weber conversion on an EA82 I've seen, I don't recall this step. Perhaps I am wrong. PS, I mailed out your clips tonight.

Al's in Franklin is a crap shoot for newer Subarus, and nothing for old Subarus (Like any junkyard) Sturtevant is a good idea, they have a few Imprezas and Outbacks time to time, they were sitting on two '01-03 Outbacks a few weeks ago (Now gone) They also have 3 first gen Foresters as of right now.

Damn straight! Its coming, whether the Neighbors want it to or not Yeah I'll take you up on the hood latch, might as well have an extra, the main part I needed was indeed the cable and handle, but oh well. PM me when you want to ship it out, cheers!

This thread is kinda interesting.

Two in the Poot one in the Toot? Yeah, the Driverside footwell isn't pretty, but it isn't rotted rotted yet. I'm gonna have to cut up pretty high due to surface rust, and trying to weld scared metal is hard, burns too too easy. But, I think I can do it (I have so far) I am looking forward to the rockers too, trying to make it all work like it did from the factory should be interesting, since I don't have much for reference (except for the complete rust free versions) Speaking of which, I should ask when dude can ship everything out

So when I started today, I felt like this. Mid way thru, I felt like this. But finally at the end, with a result of this... I felt like this!

Damn, gonna see these rolling around WI real soon!

Thats because they have ALL the aftermarket manufactures in AU. We could build some nice machines too, but it costs to much to ship their goodies over here, so we have to try and make our own lol.

MilesFox has used a Cone filter sticking out of the hood on an EA82. But the filter will get wet and get clogged with snow, not the optimal choice.

The Headlight will be interesting, I always kinda had this idea, and always wanted to see it realized. Guess we all will now! Is that the EA82 dash in there? I am wondering how the window curve is gonna match up?

The college I live by uses a few old J2000s for Park'N Rec/Building Mang. vehicles, I always thought they we cool. Remember the Yellow one from "Twister" ?

I've seen that Aussie Brat offroad on youtube, worked really good.

I dug through my boxes of Subaru randomness, and found 2 clips. Both are missing one of the spreaded out tabs. Dunno if you still want them?
