Unfortunately no, @TIMBERTIGER, I never got around to fixing this issue... This '82 Brat is my "work" Brat. It will occasionally haul stuff to the dump, load firewood around, etc... the coolest side-by-side atv / power wheelbarrow one could ask for. I found it in pretty sorry condition in the woods of South Puget Sound. It was missing the carburetor and had been sitting many years collecting moss. Flushed the fuel system and installed a new Weber, and she was in business. All I have had to replace since then has been a clutch cable. I've never had to touch the braking system even... Following that trend of seat-of-the-pants driving excitement; I've been purposely not fixing anything that wasn't keeping the Brat from driving. Subarus really are inexpensive and meant to stay that way. Since the condition of this Brat isn't stellar, I have better condition Brats, and I also wasn't sure if this Brat would turn into a parts car; that also postponed the fixing of the issue. However I still need to put the Tailgate on this Brat. Maybe I'll try and sort this issue at the same time. Heck maybe I'll restore the whole Brat the way prices are going...

It sounds like we need to see pictures of this Frankenstein. Maybe its a hopped up aircraft EA81 with custom heads, like what RAM Engineering does

Cleaned out around the Fenders and other areas that trap debris on the all the Subies. Had four neat little piles around each vehicle This is a 3rd generation, looking with the Front RH Door Ajar; at where the Fender connects to the Body. This location LOVES to catch debris. It collects in the form of road-wash, and from debris falling from trees above. I used the small bamboo branch in the above photo to fish the majority of the filth out. Compressed air, a garden hose, or a vacuum would also work great 2nd Generation cars have a similar area that catches debris in the same location. On 3rd gen cars, there are drains on either side of the windshield wiper apron, these also like to get plugged with grime and tree debris Hard to see, but there are two pine needles diving in to clog the drain even in these photos This is just routine stuff that has to be done now and then. Keeps the car less damp and less likely to rust out as well

@el_freddo found them on https://a15ff11300g.sakura.ne.jp/ (playwithlegacyrs dot com) long ago... Been wanting to re-share my favorites from that site since my original photo host crashed and burned. Looking forward to sharing more of my own personal photos and photo-finds as I get them sorted out... this last summer I found a stash of old paper Subaru Advertisements ranging from the 70's to the 2000's...

Plus they look funny with the quad lights vs the singles... IDK I'm a purist on that sort of thing

No, that was '82 only for the Brats. They have single headlights instead of quads

What would you like to know? Local to the Seattle area... cannot always get out IRL however can usually answer most Loyale questions

Yes No... only the photos that I have been meaning to revive... its a work in progress however I figured to repost them here rather than in the "OLD GEN" section as they were before. The website is called "Play With Legacy RS dot com"... depending on the system being used it may or may not show up when searched. On the PC it will load for me, on the Laptop it will not

What is the interchange again on the EA82 Clutch Kits? When going to look up a new clutch for a Dual Range '88 GL, there are two options available... Both have 9 inch Clutch Diameter (8 & 7/8?) One has 1 inch (25mm) Input Shaft Size, with 24 Hub Splines The other has 7/8 inch (22mm) Input Shaft Size, with 21 Hub Splines Curious which one would be right for my application and if the info on the interchange will help the OP
