carfreak85 Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 The covers aren't that rare, are they? My dad and I each have a set. I dare you to try finding a NOS set of those, not a re-pro'ed set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coxy Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 sorry quote of a quote didnt quite work =/the duel carbs set up like that came from nz not aus and *none* esist, nor did they ever exist... Sorry you are wrong they did exist and no doubt some still do somewhere in Japan,they were listed on the factory rally options brochure that I have a copy of somewhere. I also saw them in real life having been involved in the Original Southern Cross rally in the Port Macquarie region,an event that started originally in the coastal side of the Snowy Mountains during the sixties and continued into the mid eighties. Real rallying day and night stages with some special stages over 200 KM of competitive for just one stage,What you enter these days Spike competition wise is a poor reflection of what rally Sport events once were. The Southern Cross which was the first event outside of Japan for Subaru as well as most japanese teams covered on average around 4,500 KM not the piddling mileages events cover these days.

bigjimd Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 I swear the more I look at that Safari twin carb pic it looks like a Turbo rig with the huffer loading into the can in the back with the hoses bringing the pressure to solid wall cans on top of the carbs.

bratman18 Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 the glove box mirrors came on all second gen 81-82 GL's originally. maybe '80 too, but none after that. huh, my 86 BRAT had the glove box mirror. I know it was the original dash, so maybe the glove box was changed out at some point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I did the door swap on a couple. seemed that the 83+ ones didn't have as good of a paint coating on them... at least the ones I had seemed to rust more, and it was primarily older 80-82 ones I was parting out at the time that I had spare doors from....

Quidam Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Anyone ever see a little sheet metal cover over the water pump snout/shaft? Came on a car without AC, where the plastic fan bolts to the water pump, EA 82. I had one but sold it with the car. Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The STD's all had that grill, they were made in the early ea81 era also. The dash is the DL trim level for ea81s. All ea81 (stock) DL dashes look this way.

Well, I Just came across this one: This is a common "feature" in the GL sedans and the touring wagons in oz. It's a cigarette ash tray in the rear door handle...
