  1. i think its fair to say that they are the most reliable/proven OHC engines subaru has made to date...they will do 200K+ without missing a beat if you keep up the maintenance, and most often they will still last that long if you dont
  2. quoting the words of my old man... "the 225ci was the best american motor built"
  3. i feel for you E ed...how are the chryslers? 86 subaru, yes - this meet is for everyone
  4. easiest would be my place i think, talked to the Xpert today and he said hes going to caravan with us out there...you meet him at his place, then both of you at my place? if you dont remember how to get my place just drop me an email and ill give you directions from the tacony - really easy
  5. heres what the updated headcount looks like... myself EJ moosens kevin thomas hocrest stupidru brattysvx svxpert possibly going: stuart c rich from iclub wagon wagon skip
  6. stupidru, im going to add you to the list going... hey E...i tried calling you yesterday but ofcourse you work the graveyard shift. anyway, i guess the plan would be to leave from my crib by 6:30 for beaver springs...whatever time you think youd need to get on the road by to do that is your call, you know the NJ roads better then i do, remember i live like 5 minutes from the tacony palmyra? and when were ready to roll, i live like 10 minutes from the PaTP the other way let me know if this is cool ok? cant wait
  7. its listed as beaver springs, pa...however ive never been through that area... says about 3 hrs from my place
  8. see if you guys can swing a PB meet in october...the beaver springs get together is kind of short notice
  9. just wanted to see if you got it, we havent talked in a while - my bad whenever you get time end hijack.
  10. sorry to highjack... jay did you get my email?
  11. my contribution... pic taken by/courtesy of EJ new jersey rules
  12. the biggest you can get easily are from an XT6, but i really dont see a problem with the RX swaybars its a subaru - so its going to handle like garbage either way but it may make some small improvement
  13. 1. wouldnt be too much work to swap the rest of it in if youre going that far, i think the XT6s were a pretty straight foward swap because they didnt make many 2WD models - i havent been under one in a while but if i remeber right, the 2WDs look like the 4WDs did, just with a bunch of spoob missing. totally worth the work in my opinion... 2. not sure if you need the cross member... 3. most if not all of it... 4. goto the beaver springs meet - its stickied at the top of this forum...and also let me know if you want some help doing this swap, get intouch im like 1.5 hrs from you. dude.
  14. we postponed the PB meet until Oct. not sure on a date yet...didnt look like it was going to be too good of a turnout and i was getting emails from a few saying they couldnt make it... were doing a meet at the east coast subaru shootout in beaver springs pa...looks like a promising crowd is going to show..we have a nice list of people... see the thread for it in the Older Subarus forum, its stickied at the top...the meet is saturday, september 13th - can you come?
  15. already cleared it with the proper personel, thanks for your concern
  16. heres a pic of mine, click on "1985 RX"...9/1984 build date i believe, 189K on the clock - daily driver Dennis' Subarus
  17. just drop the hammer and buy a new unit... autozone has melling oil pumps which are brand new for around $80, i bought mine after battling the lifter noise for 7 months and with the turn of a key it was gone after the replacement... i never messed around with "resealing" or anything, id rather pay the extra money and have piece of mind...
  18. there was an eastcoast impreza in drive magazine that had 500k on it and was still being driven daily as a courier car... believe it was early 90s around the EJ18 era
  19. still waiting to hear from a few... heres what the count looks like... definates: myself EJ moosens kevin thomas hocrest questionables: stuart c rich from iclub wagon wagon svxpert brattysvx skip tomrhere im sure there are more from Pa...come on dudes, dont forget this is a subaru only event - there will be plenty of other clubs showing up, vendors and much more
  20. your boy Rich L is rumored to be dropping by this event, i spoke to him today bump for the 3rd time in 10 minutes
  21. jay is right your subaru will now handle like a buick, upgrade the rear as well
