mcbrat Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 I seem to remember a 33 of 50 black vehicle posted a long time ago, but it was a "Black Diamond" Edition '83 wagon I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niku-Sama Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 thats funny, Datsun at the same year had a "Black Gold" edition 280zx. it had all the fancy stuff....no offence to subaru stuff but i think the Z was better. infact that 280zx at the arlington PAP is a "black gold" car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caboobaroo Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 I'd be ok with it if its in good condition. If the price is right and its an actual black RX, yes, yes I'd like to have it. I'd put my drivetrain into it and get rid of the EA82T. As far as I know though, there weren't any numberings on them. My old black RX didn't have anything except the regular RX stickers.

Russ,now I remenber your old thread in Laramie Wy, when you found your black 89. mcgus1 has access to the car, and we should be able to get pics,more info. Pics say 100 words, Ill call him now and try to get him to post some,,,,,,,,,, WEIRD,,,,,,,,,,, Edited June 9, 2009 by mykingcrab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcgus1 Posted June 9, 2009 Share Posted June 9, 2009 Robert, Thanks for the call this morning. Seems like this car is a big mystery. I can't make it over to the yard until Earliest Friday, but probably not till next week. And I will take lots of pics and post them. But here's something interesting I just saw on CL, in Colo Springs... http://denver.craigslist.org/cto/1212393801.html The black one in the yard is just like it as far as I remember. But I didn't really pay attention to the details like I will next time (as you know, I have my eye on something else there) -Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcgus1 Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Robert, Okay, mystery solved...and my bad. On further inspection (I only glanced at it sideways last time) it isn't an RX at all, but a non-turbo 2-door slant-back, FWD, manual, Star Edition 33 of 50 (I took pics if you want me to send them to you). Typical CO car, no rust, a few dings, etc. But the yard owner is out of touch. Wanted $800 for a non-running w/ trashed int, '88 XT6. Got my runner for $400 a month ago, private party. -Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

idosubaru Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Didn't know anybody willingly swapped in an EJ25 either-Lose the turbo, keep the headgasket issues. i'd take any EJ engine over an EA82T. but if you're doing a custom engine swap, wiring, ECU and all, head gaskets are negligible anyway.
