  1. alright, I think we all need to start planning. who wants to make plans??
  2. i had an '87 with rust in the same spot worse than that, got in a wreck and that spot didn't show any warpage or anything of the sort.
  3. what does the underbody look like? it seems like it'd be pretty eaten up. i'd say... $800
  4. my wag has a s/r tranny and my sedan is fwd so wheeling is something i'm not gonna do anywayzz. it would be cool to have a bbq or something.
  5. Hey!! welcome aboard the starship subaru, lol. Lots of resources here... If it weren't for this site I wouldn't even own a Subaru. and yes, N/A cars are the way to go. especially the case with ea82s.
  6. how long of a walk would it have been back for them? could they even get reception? and that is a beautiful mountain. screw these house covered hills I'M GOIN WEST BABY!!!!
  7. my 89 gl sedan spfi 5 spd a/c power everything, nor my '87 dl no a/c, power nothing have a clutch fan. why is this? and neither one of them overheat
  8. does it still have power when you're driving it or will it barely move under it's own power? if it will barely move... it's probably the fuel pump or filter. but before you go jumping to that, i would recommend plugs (NGK), wires (NGK), disty cap, rotor, air filter, fuel filter. check the choke too... that's the most common idle related problem causer.
  9. you should do that to an ea81 with the cyclops headlight. you'd look like a UFO coming down the road, haha. and yes, that looks very good. I think I will do that with my DL actually. it looks THAT good.
  10. sausage fest, hahaha. you're right though... these cars are definitely not pimpin' rides. unless you lower it and tint the windows and put a huge system in it, but that's not the reason most of us buy our subes. but yes, we have to have a southeast meet sometime soon, hopefully in the snow.
  11. no problem. glad you're okay and the car's fine. with the way you drive maybe you should have your e-brake on the rear instead Edit: just realized that if the car's in 4wd (which it should be if you're driving on snow or ice) it would lock up all 4s anyway if you pulled the e-brake. Now I'M the idiot, haha.
  12. I did indeed. it's not often Subaru adventures occur in this part of the country. and yes, that is a nice looking console. Does the rest of the Brat look that good? I'd love to have a Brat but I realized the first time I sat in one I was too tall. maybe I can find a T-top..
  13. don't listen to these other guys, you're a freakin idiot. LOCKED ALL 4 WHEELS UP WHILE DRIVING AROUND AN ICE-COVERED CORNER? what were you doing, wiping your A$$ and lighting a cigarette at the same time?? okay, driving around an ice-covered corner is stupid enough, BUT HITTING THE BRAKES WHILE DOING SO?????? I don't know what you're on dude. OH WAIT, ICE!!!! what do you think this is... soobs on ice??? THIS IS THE REAL WORLD. that means DON'T DRIVE ON ICE. driving on ice is STUPID. I hope you didn't take any of that seriously...... hahaha. it was all just a joke!!!!! lol
  14. they probably just knocked a vacuum hose loose or something. take it back and make them fix it, that's bull crap.
  15. tried fuel pump... and put some sea-foam in the gas. nothing's getting better... is it the carb? runs the same hot or cold. can't climb hills... give it more than half throttle and it instantly looses power... still smooth though. hmmmm???? what gives?
  16. i just put some of those spring braces for old/sagging springs on the front, but obviously i used them to clamp instead of spread. they don't rub if you put them towards the back of the spring. I'm trying to find some XT front struts though, i like that idea better.
  17. don't some older porsche's have a seperate intake/carb for each side of the engine? could a similar set-up for a soob be custom made and the 90 degree angles in the intake be gotten rid of??
  18. it's only riding maybe 1 1/2 inches lower in the front... you can't tell from this angle but even lowered in the front, with a full tank of gas it still looks like it's squatting a little.
  19. holy crap. that thing makes the titanic look like a deloreon. I MADE A FUNNY!!!! hahaha
  20. okay... still doing the same thing after I drove it a while. seemed okay for a little while, then started again. has power in about the first 1/3 of the pedal... go down any further, and it decelerates. you can hear the engine TRYING... but nothing's happening. have to let off the gas completely and feather it a bit and be really easy on it. does this sound like a fuel pump going out? changed the filter already. Edit: remembered the same thing happening to my first gl... was the fuel pump. will try that next.
  21. fuel filter, air filter, spark plugs, wires, disty cap, rotor, changed oil, added coolant, filled up and drove about 40 miles around town and used nearly a quarter of a tank and it actually slows down when I apply full throttle. but otherwise it seems okay as long as I don't apply too much gas?? could the gas be bad? that's what I'm thinking. anywayzz, here's a pic of "Sherman the tank".
