lets talk gear ratio's!! in ea82 manual
92_rugby_subie replied to wilcox's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
How did I not float valves when I shifted at over 7500? I heard that Subaru motors had valve floating at 10k? The weber does have torque advantages, whether low end or upper end, not sure, but i love it. -

Ive shifted there by accident once... guess I thought I was driving an auto or something cuz I looked down and was at 7500 in 2nd gear and shifted into 3rd and remained on the gas I had no idea they could chirp tires into 3rd haha Edit: back on track, Wilcox, what set-up are you running? year/model and mods? -

Im pretty sure mine starts at 6500... Ill check when I clean him out... But if I try to drive at 6K rpms (like hold it) I can feel the loss in power, but under hard acceleration, I feel it pull the whole way... could be the Weber that provides the extra boost... but soobies love to high rev... -
Finally! Back in a Subaru.

+1 I shift my car at 6K when Im going somewhere "hard" because it when I shift into the next gear (usually 2nd or 3rd) I start at about 4K and it just keeps on pullin! -

Its both. The diff must match the gear ratio in the transmission or it wont work -

True. I did have a sticking caliper... not that long ago, but I bled them and they felt decent, but I never noticed the vibrating til I was passenger. -

Driving is huge for me. I lost my license, and I havent been able to drive my car, just ride in it... and its really been driving me insane the things that seem to have gone wrong from being parked for awhile... but the brakes is a problem. I would do a helluva lot better financially if I wasnt paying rent to my mom haha -

Moving out is a huge priority... Getting my car running like when he was in your possession is another huge priority since having reliable transportation is part of getting a job. -
Whats out there? Ive been looking around and I like quite a few of the brake rotors and pad choices out there. Probably end up with ceramic brake pads, quieter and cleaner on the wheels. Still looking at rotors... I really like the idea of cross-drilled/slotted rotors, but I hear they are causing more harm than good. What do you guys use? Not looking for the ferrari of brake equipment as its still 4x140 at this point... eventually Ill be 5 lug

I have pointed this site out to him, to my knowledge he doesnt look at it, because when I mention the solution to his problem is on here, guess who looks it up for him Yea plus... I dont want Ned being blown up though :/ -

Looks promising, they do exist! Gotta check it out... I have been against aftermarket car alarms just because they are so sensitive that snowballs set them off, Neds exhaust sets them off, basketballs set them off... by them I mean one next door Edit: Heres one, what do you guys think? I think its kinda cool... not sure on the brand or anything... http://www.ebay.com/itm/no-reserve-RFID-MONITOR-CAR-ALARM-HANDS-FREE-LUXURY-/190548612712?pt=Car_Audio_Video&hash=item2c5d951668&vxp=mtr -

I thought about changing my locks... but I wanted it to be a little more... secure I guess... replace them but also make them unique, but I see thats not exactly possible. I may just do the fuel pump cutoff switch... but at the same time, that only works as long as nobody sees me turn it on :/ -

Ive considered this option, have it hidden under the dash or something... how hard is it? Thats my problem... and unfortunately the person has been seen with me so it wouldnt be weird if his Subaru showed up and he drove off with mine for awhile, its happened before when we were on speaking terms.
