Ill be there around noon saturday... and ill be ready to throw down!!! should be a blast, i went last time an it was awesome... -=Suberdave=- http://www.suberdave.com -
i have thought of that before. here is a photoshop that i did for fun. yeah i thought of using coupe doors also, but moving the B piller would be a real PITA. but using stock front doors and just molding in the rear, wouldnt look as good. link to my thread http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=76831 -=Suberdave=- http://www.suberdave.com

Rear wheel alignment in my ea82
suberdave replied to subieman's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
can it be done... yes. there are adjustments in the rear. however it is not easy at all. i have spent hours working on it. and most alignment shops will not spend much time on it, before they tell you it is not adjustable. if something is wareing, than something is probably bent. -=Suberdave=- www.suberdave.com -
Different trunk emblems?
suberdave replied to misledxcracker's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
as far as i know. all the GL's 89 and older had that emblem. then in 90 when the Loyal came out they switched to the new style emblem more like the ones you see on todays subarus. the logo at the top of the USMB page is a combnation of the two. notice how it has 7 stars. however all subaru emblems should only have 6. -=Suberdave=- http://www.suberdave.com -
i agree, and i have a printed copy of that manual. my only questine is "why are they red" other than that they look good... good image to have... -=Suberdave=- http://www.suberdave.com

yeah i run octane booster. looks like that may be the cause of my problem... should it worrie me that this one is worse than all the rest? they are all red but this one is just a little worse... -=Suberdave=- http://www.suberdave.com

Power steering problems 91 xt6
suberdave replied to Teagar's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
well i can tell you that the Chevy and Saturn cars with EPS dont use any fluid. the system is 100% electric. just uses a motor. no fluid at all.... -=Suberdave=- http://www.suberdave.com -
yeah it has worked since shortly after i installed the struts. is it worth it... for cool factor... yes. for funtionaly... probably not. with the EDFC motor in the rear my car is as low as it will go. if i took it out i could drop it down a bit more. and i think it would look a bit better. if you think it is going to be a problem. i would not get it. you can still adjust your struts. you will just have to get out of the car to do it... -=Suberdave=- http://www.suberdave.com

i need help with my 1988 gl wagon
suberdave replied to silverracerkh2005's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
As far as Bosch plugs. i wouldn't put them in anything but a VW or a lawn mower. i am auto tech. and i have seen Bosch plugs cause random misfires in many different kinds of cars. i would toss them and get some NGK's, also get a good dist. cap and rotor. and some good (again NGK) plug wires, and a new O2 sensor. change the oil and run some good fuel system cleaner through it. and fix the exhaust leak. and i would bet that it will pass SMOG. if the car runns and drives it "DOSE NOT" need a rebuild... i wouldn't even wast my time doing a compression test on it. if it has low comp. in one cyl. you would feel it, it would have a slight misfire... -=Suberdave=- www.suberdave.com -
93 suby loyale hood latch problem
suberdave replied to Rick James's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
this has happeded to me a few times... its not all that hard to fix. pull the front grill off. by poping the two pins that hold it on and you can get it off without popping the hood. now reach behind the latch and find where the cable attaches. pull it. now your hood is open. now tape the end of your "new" cable to the back end of the old cable in the car. (you will have to cut the old cable so it no longer has the mounting hardware on it) this way all you will have to do is pull the old cable out and it will pull the new cable into place... and just like that its all done... -=Suberdave=- http://www.suberdave.com -
new front brakes and battery hold down...
suberdave replied to suberdave's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
-=Suberdave=- www.suberdave.com -
well first off i think i installed the first big brake kit on an EA car ever... its a Wilwood kit that was made for a 02-05 WRX... it uses a 294mm Rotor and a 4 piston caliper... and my new battery hold down... before the battery was mounted sidways, it says right on the battery that it is unspillable. but it leaked out the vent when i was placed on its side. so i changed it. it dosent leak anymore... Oyeah i also mounted my new Cusco oil cetch can that i won at WCSS9. -=Suberdave=- www.suberdave.com
