subyrally

50:1, try closer to 300:1 as of an artical i read last year.

timing belts, oil seals(cam, crank, rear main) clean it and make it all shiney like.

so sorry to hear about your xt, so very happy that you and your child are ok. people need to toss pride out the window and pull off the road and take a nap when they get tired. did the engine survive the impact with the car in front of you?

well duh, we all know the brat is the greatest thing since sliced bread, that being invented the previous year. i want to have the fastest brat ever, but that will have to wait.

i thought about lifting the rx, but i want a brat, i would like the ability to haul stuff, like *****. . but really,i woant somethin that i can carry stuff in, like bikes, or building materials, ect... i might do a slight lift on it, but ill prrolly end up swapping the engine and drive train to something newer and possibly turboed. i would make it good for on and off road. cant you just imagine the face of some punk in a riced ot honda civic when he gets spanked by an old brat? i made a post in the market place. maybe ill get someone thats willing to trade. the car also kinda brings up bad memories of the place i used to work and the people i worked with. oh well, i want a brat

that sounds like a good idea thanks

i have an '86 rx, want a brat, should i sell the rx and buy a junkyard brat to build or should i try to maybe trade for a brat?either way, i can onlyhave one project car and there is no way ill get rid of my daily driver ('00 2.5rs). i really want a brat. i like the rx, but its being a pain. any ideas?

you got any pics?

chack your cv joints, what you described sounds exactly like a bad cv joint on your front axels. ive replaced many an axel. usually it starts with a torn cv boot, if and when the boot tears, the grease gets flung out and it gets dirt and road stuffs in it causing wear faster than it should. when it clicks around turns, its usually cause the axel has gone bad.

you gat a pic of the body kit and a price?

hey, let me know how that turns out, i wouldnt mind seeing something like that.

hurray for duck tape and bondo, w00t!!i think i should go for it, but first, who wants to make a donation?

yay for bondo!!!!!, hey it could work though, i dont know where i would get the $ for it though

just wondering, do you think it would be possible to graft a mitsu eclipse body kit onto a 1986 rx? i know i would have to cut and bend the fenders to fit, prolly be wider at the bumpers. im asking cause i found a perfect body kit on some ricer eclipse at a junk yard, the kit doesnt even have a scratch on it, my guess is that the motor went on it. but do you think it would be worth the time? it would be kinda cool to see a rx with a modern twist to it. i prolly shoulda took pics of the car.

did they have any turbo legacies???

cops are useless, i think they only exist to hassle under age smokers and catch the people that make only a tiny little mistake. god forbid that they ever go after the people that deserve it. i say take it into your own hands

im kinda in the same boat on this one, i need to drain and drop the tank, its been sitting for 6 years and prolly has more water than gas in it, strangly enuff, the car still runs on it.

i know him, cool guy, i bought the rear brakes he had for the legacy, now i need the legacy turbo calipers. poor car, i would have liked seeing it

hey goatboy, that was my nickname back in high school. i never thought i would see anyone else use that name. i guess, long live the bretheren of the goatboys!!!

i agree fully.

has any one tried or completed an ej series engine swap into an old subaru? (pre legacy/impreza)

owwwy, my wallet

any one?

i have a '86 rx, is there any one that makes anything like a body kit that will fit the car? im looking for wider fenders and new bumper. i am making the car into a track car, it needs an aerodynamic face lift. and the peugot rims on it are sticking out past the fenders at the moment.

thanks for the info. that will help out a lot when i upgrade, can you give a link of where i can get an adapter?
