carbed EA82 oil in aircleaner!?
BlindSight replied to BlindSight's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
alright will do and reply asap. -
so ive been having some trouble with my car stalling out and not wanting to idle...adjusted the idle up to about 2k and when it does want to idle it idles around there but still likes to die when i dont accelerate or stop. I noticed quite a bit of oil up in the air cleaner and was wondering if ive got a bad blowby problem or what and is that more than likely my problem with the car stalling out and running funny? what would be the best thing to do? is it a really big deal or should i just keep it clean and check the air filter every once in a while? if its a big problem then i will probably take it as a hint that I need to start looking for an EJ donor car and do that swap ive been dreaming about but for now still need this wagon as my daily driver. thanks for the input.

ended up getting those 20575r15 liberators and look pretty nice but need to get my lift kit in and put it on and shouldn't need any mods.
-
any news?
-
k awesome, thanks for the advice..couldn't get them today but probably tomorrow
-
hoping to purchase them today around noon..searched around on the forums and found a little more info but nothing really about my wagon with just a 3" lift and with the pug wheel offset.
-
with the mr2's the cars body are designed for something like that and the body shape allows for the flow of air around the vehicle to make it where it needs to go but doing something like that with a brat might not work so well....what if while driving the brat breaks the wind high enough that there wount be hardly any air flowing down to the bed there....would probably need a big scoop or something.......anyone have a wind tunnel we can do some testing in? ? just some thoughts.
-
going to go with the liberator AT's for the cheapness factor while im still using it as my daily driver and then once its back to a project car will get some good mud tires....what size should i go with though? 205, 215, 235? Want them as big as possible while still being able to get up hills without too much trouble and would rather bash than cut as much as possible.
-
would 215/75/15 be too big? what would that diameter come out to be in inches?
-
im looking for something thats going to be good offroad yet still descent on highways and such....like playing in the mud and have a few friends that know of some good spots if it ever rains...hopefully wont be my daily driver for long but for now need some tires that wont kill me on the highways

in for a moderate ea82 lift...pm sent.
-
yeah well the idea is to have it not look like some ghetto hackjob...dont mind the wagon looking like a beater or anything....just dont want it to be too redneck looking. what are the tire dimensions i will be looking for with the 15" rims if im going to get some 27"s or somewhere close?
-
k thanks for the advice...already have the 15" rims and will be sticking to them...will probably go with some 27"s because i do alot of up hill driving living in the city of Cedar Hill. Ive got a friend who just graduated from Wyotech doing body work so will probably hire him to cut the fenders out and see if he can get them nice and round and will probably find some universal black plastic fender trim and trim the edge off or something.

im looking for some tires for my 1987 subaru 4wd gl wagon. I got a set of 15" pug alloy rims and now just need to figure out what tires to put on them. I plan on doing the mild 3" lift because i dont want to have to do any cutting or custom fabbing or anything so what type and size tires should i go for? trying to avoid cutting but dont mind bashing and can cut the fenders if i have too. This will still be my daily driver for a while but want some mean looking tires that will do well offroad and still be bareable on the highways and such. THANKS ALREADY FOR THE HELP!!
-
yeah, business is business...and its not like you were jumpig into the offroad old subaru area expecting masses of customers or anything, i personally appreciate anyone who will take some time every once in a while to produce something for our odd habit. any pics of the rear tube bumpers and any prices? like i said really interested in bumpers but dont want a front tube bumper and square rear bumper. even if they are drawings or something...or explaination of the fitment...like do they wrap around or stuff like that.
-
your so shady, shady.... but you seem to have some good stuff so...any answer to my quiestion...rear tube bumpers maybe??
-
so which front bumpers is this buy for? are you all planning on making rear tube bumpers to match your new front tube bumpers? really like the front tube bumpers but dont want tubes in the front and squared in the back ya know? how much shipped to 75104 for a rear bumper with reciever?
-
Any interest in a lift kit group buy???
BlindSight replied to Shadyirishmen's topic in Products for your Subaru
really want a lift as well but price is a factor so lets see how much of a discount comes out of this....and also need to find some pugs or 15" wheels of some sort for around $200 and under...dont want to lift it up and still have my 13"'s with the low profile tires....already looks bad enough. -
so was watching the simpsons and one of the cops got out to direct traffic and they said something along the lines of look at him tease that subaru....well....i thought it was cool.
-

-
