    Congratulations!
  2. Crazyeights
    Already bought spare clutch and throttle cables, thanks for the heads up!
  3. Crazyeights
    So, did you get this resolved?
  4. Crazyeights
    Nice shop Rob! You have done well
  5. Crazyeights
    If they made a 2 door variant with the longer bed I would own one by now

    Welcome! Looks pretty good, but do enlighten me. Why the KA-24?
  7. Crazyeights
    Bad connection at the headlight connector? Moisture inside the housing? Just a couple of thoughts.
  8. Crazyeights
    Looks Great!
  9. Crazyeights
    Older engines and solid lifter cams still need Zinc among other things - You are so right!

    Bad rear wheel bearing?
  11. Crazyeights
    It wasn't obvious.

    I agree ^^^ but in spite of that my 3AT still lasted for 250k! It was still working when I pulled it out to swap it for a 5MT DR.

    Those heads look fine. Find a new set of rings and put it back together.
  14. Crazyeights
    Looking Great! Thanks for the updates.

    Believe it or not Rock Auto still has one left! https://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/subaru,1982,dl,1.6l+h4,1267949,ignition,distributor,7108

    Awesome! Another old school Subaru saved from the scrapper, at least for a little while

    I left the 1.19 in it. I would like to go back in and put the 1.5x in it but I don't want to tear apart a good dual range for the donor parts. I already had a junk XT6 trans and that's what gave me the idea to use the 3.9 ring and pinion. I wonder if I could fit an LSD carrier in there while I'm at it Hmm....

    LOL I think I loaned you a stock Cyclops relay to make the diagrams from. Good Job!
  19. Crazyeights
    I used the 3.9 gears from an XT6 transmission to swap my 3.7 FT DR box so it is possible. I also swapped the axle stub shafts so it would bolt in to my EA81 Wagon. It took parts from 3 different transmissions to make mine but it was worth it.

    I was going to say the same thing as Olnick but I don't own an early Legacy. I do however have Impreza struts in the front end of my Loyale so I would be really surprised if some pick-n-pull struts wouldn't just fit right in. Subaru's are like Legos

    I tried a Delta Torque grind in my EA81 Hi-Po build and it was so noisy I couldn't stand it. The valve noise would not adjust out. Soon after two lobes failed and I had to pull the engine again. To their credit they did replace the cam and lifters and blamed the failure on the type of oil I was using. Has anyone ever heard any delta torque grind cam that wasn't excessively noisy? The extra torque was fun for a few hundred miles

    I really like the videos. Thanks a lot for taking the time to make them. I look forward to seeing your progress
  23. Crazyeights
    Congrats! I have always liked the XT's.

    I would bleed the system really well. You don't need a helper or too pump the pedal. Once you are sure the air is out if you still don't have any pedal the gently pinch off both front brake hoses and see if your pedal comes back. If it still doesn't then the master cylinder has to be junk. Good Luck, you are almost there.
  25. Crazyeights
    It's probably air in the system then. Usually if they are damaged either they leak or the parking brake fails. It sounds like you did everything right. Do you have access to a vacuum bleeder? I couldn't imagine living without mine.
