  1. Not sure Skip. I know for sure that the ea71&81 are the same but not sure about the 82.Also not sure if they are the same temp thermostat.
  2. Thanks for the link to those break down diagrams.Makes things more simple with something to look at.Again thanks for the help.
  3. Well last night I went to the junkyard and I found a high center consol with the arm rest and the power window controls out of an 84 GL wagon.It's dark blue and in very good shape.Then today I went to another yard and pulled a spider intake off of a N/A XT ea82.Both things that I don't really need but couldn't pass up.I am sure there are many others like me that just pull things they don't need just cause you can't pass it up.
  4. Sounds like a pretty cool idea.Tie in a roll cage like that would be nice.I would say go for it if you have the time.
  5. Thanks for the tip.Ya I definately need to rejet it.Had some corrosion inside from sitting for so long.(White powder)I have it apart and I am cleaning it and its cleaning up well.I forgot to add earlier it is a DGAV but converted to electric.I am pretty amazed how simple they are compared to a hitachi.Kinda reminds me of the carbs I had on dirtbikes and snowmobiles.
  6. Looks like its electric.Has that little brass tab connector on the side.Also it must be a pretty old school carb cause when I pulled it apart it has the brass float.Is it a good idea to change to the plastic?(Float doesn't have any leaks)
  7. Well I just got a weber carb today from a guy who had one for sale off of a BMW 2002. The carb is the 32/36 DGAV. I got it for $30 so I think I got a good deal.Will the DGAV work correctly on a suby engine? I just wanted to make sure it wasn't all backwards like the DFAV.The carb I got needs some cleaning cause it has a good layer of gunk on it and needs a rebuild.
  8. PC is looking really good.I like the rack and your front bumper with the lights.Looks ready to tear it up. Also thanks for keeping an eye out for me for cars.
  9. Put your car on a lift if you can and inspect the exhaust for holes or around the spots where donut gaskets are.
  10. Talk to (Jamie) Subie Gal at Chaplins Subaru.She is very helpful with parts and they always have good prices.
  11. Sounds as if it is grounding when the brakes are applied causing it to stop blinking.Go back over your wires and check them.
  12. That thing is really cool.I could only imagine someone putting a big racing spoiler on the back of the cover for high speed cornering.Ummm just kidding I hope no one does that.I really like that cover though.
  13. Yep thats right.I have had to do that several time on fleet vehicles that I maintain.People have lost their keys in the snow where I work and thats what I do is just go to the dealership like he just said.
  14. I agree.The system sounds like it has air in it and you just need to purge it with some pressure.
  15. You could put an LSD in the rear is what most people do,or Lincoln lock the rear by welding it.I would say go with the LSD.
  16. Thats helarious.Plus adding weight to it anyway like putting a winch on the front,ect.I also am a fan of aluminum.I don't think you need to use solid aluminum blocks.But the olsen twins weigh maybe 100 lbs for both of them.
  17. I don't have any real advise for ya.Should be pretty strait forward.I would replace both lines if you can just to prevent it from happening again.
  18. First check out a couple companies that make lifts.Depending on what model subaru you have then you can decide how much you want to lift it.I would say most people are happy with a 4" lift.The 2 companies that should be looked at are: Ozified or AA(Allied Armament).I would recomend going with either 14" or 15" pugs with the 28" superswampers.
  19. Sounds like a fun project.At the time I don't know anyone who needs a prop but I will keep it in mind.I as well like the wooden prop better.Some say they prefer it for open pit airplanes.(sounds a little different) One kit plane I have wanted to build for some time is a down scaled version: Slepcev Storch. STOL aircraft capable of taking off in 50-60ft.Would be the ultimate bush flying aircraft.I wanted to build it with the subaru EA81 engine.
  20. For the exhaust I would go with 2.5" just cause you said you are going to build the brat most likely for rally so you will need a free flowing exhaust.I think that thing will sing with a 2.5" exhaust.Should sound good coming out of the side.I would love to see some pics if you got em of your project.
  21. What type of airplane? I am an A&P mechanic so I also love airplanes.
  22. I believe TurboXT's sister Cutie-Ru has 9.5:1 on her turbo'd xt.
  23. Ya I am sure you could do that.I would love to see a picture of that.A rally brat or hatch would be really cool with some good suspension travel.
  24. Yes I agree. I would like to help as well ,but need to know what you are asking first.Sounds like a good deal for $300.
