Rear Disc Conversion, Emergency Brake????
Naked Buell replied to Naked Buell's topic in Subaru Retrofitting
Let me clarify. My Brat has a Legacy front end, with the five lugs. I swapped the rears with the Rx so I have disc all the way around. Being the legacy doesn't have the e brake in the front I was wondering what to do. -
Rear Disc Conversion, Emergency Brake????
Naked Buell replied to Naked Buell's topic in Subaru Retrofitting
Just to let you guys know I have a legacy front end on the Brat and the Rx rear disc set up doesn't have the e brake so that is what I am asking. Sorry should have included that. -
Hey guys. I am in the middle of dropping the 2.2T into my brat and it mentions to tie the ECU into the fan relay to have the ECU turn the fan on and off. It mentions tying into the ground on the relay. Is this the fan relay on the 85 Brat? http://i931.photobucket.com/albums/ad155/NakedBuell/WP_000756.jpg Thx guys

So I swapped rear disc brakes onto my Brat from an Rx. I was wondering, what do you do now for an emergency brake? Thanks for the info guys.
-
I have an 85 Brat too. The first thing I would do is swap the wires on the distributor. I have accidently had them on the wrong leads at the coil and got nothing. Double checked and swapped the leads and she fired right up. I had swapped to a new coil too but all it was were the leads on the wrong terminals.

Hey Bros. So I have an Ea 81 and have stripped just about all the emissions crap off the engine. But one thing I was wondering about was there are two pipes, one off each side, that come from the exhaust manifold and come up to some kind of junction and goes to the air filter. Do I need those stupid things??? I'm thinking not. Any ideas???? thx
-
Okay guys. This is for the guys who have changed out their Ea 81 pistons with the SPFI pistons. Is it worth the money for the upgrade??? How much are you gaining???? I just had the heads pressure checked and I had the cam redone for torque. I can get pistons but is it worth the money? I am not trying to get every HP I can, just wondering if the bang is worth the buck????

EA82 carb to a EA81 engine & liftkit
Naked Buell replied to Scriptchip's topic in Subaru Retrofitting
I can't stand the Ea 82. I have heard other guys have liked them but not me. Every one I have come across I was replacing and the Ea 82T are even more of a piece of garbage in my opinion, and I love subies. I have an 88 Rx that had an Ea 82T and started having problems and I just yanked it out and I am rebuilding the reliable Ea 81 with some performance upgrades. On the carb issue, I would get yourself a weber for the Ea 81. I myself stay away from the Ea 82. I would rather do an EJ swap before putting in the Ea 82, but I am just telling you what I have come across. -
Hey Hitoshi. I was glad to help you out. It has never been about making money but helping out friends. I have you as a friend on the list. Feel free to ask me anything. If I don't know, I can find out. Have a good day. Naked Buell, aka, Joe

Does any of you guys know a good place to get the Ea 82 OHC SPFI pistons?? I am rebuilding the ea 81 and am looking. thx
-
We could do it Friday. Let me know and I could meet you off the freeway in Port Orchard. That is right before Bremerton. $75 for the 4 speed, dual range hi and low.
-
Okay guys. Need your help. I have an ea81 with a ea82 manifold and the weber carb upgrade. I would like to know how to run the breather lines off the valve covers and to the carb etc. I just want to make sure I have it right. Thx

I am doing a 2.2T swap into my 85 Brat. I am also putting in a 5 speed jdm transmission. Do I just hook up the vss from the tranny to the ecu????? Pin B58, pin 11 says vss. Does it just connect to the transmission?????
-
Nope. My Dad's friend purchased a Brat and took the canopy off of it and was going to get rid of it so my Dad snagged it for me. My Brat has a roll bar so the canopy doesn't work for me plus I can't put my motorcycle in it either.
-
Cool. The canopy isn't at my house. It is at my parents in Seabeck, Wa about 20 minutes for where I am. Hence the heads up. I have to let the people know ahead of time as courtesy.
-
Just give a couple of days heads up so I can coordinate. Where r u coming from?
-
So I acquired a 4-11 5 speed and I have the older transmission case to put the guts in. Now I have never even cracked a case before and needed some advice from my Subie brothers. How hard is it and does the back lash and all that need to be adjusted too? I am clueless about this and any info would be appreciated. Thanks.
-
The reason for turning the t-housing around is because with PS, you run right into the belts, but if you don't have PS, you probably don't have to swap that out. :cool:
-
Hey everyone. Does anyone out there have a 91- 94 legacy turbo sedan, awd, 5 speed? If you do, could you be so kind as to copy that number off your trans and tell me what it is? I don't have the trans, which means no #. Thanks guys.
-
I wasn't doing a SPFI swap. I broke a bolt and then the extractor in the intake so I got another intake and to my surprise GD told me that an Ea 82 has better flow and will bolt up. So the mods are to get it to work. But I am sure the SPFI would work and open up more room on the other side of engine.
-
Here is some pics of the mod job I had to do. It's an Ea 82 manifold. I had to grind a sliver off the alt bracket, and a pretty good chuck out of the Ea 81 PS bracket. I put power steering in my Brat from an 84 turbo coupe. If u use the t-stat housing from the Ea 81, it is much taller that allows you to shoot it backwards and then u make a smooth transition back to the radiator. I know how you guys like the pics, like me, so here you go. :cool:

Can U Put in a rack/pin. from 93 Leg to 85 Brat?
Naked Buell replied to Naked Buell's topic in Subaru Retrofitting
Could you put the rack from the 93 and use the tie rods for the Brat? Would it be the right width then?
