if the last 8 digits of my VIN are FE486008, does that mean my car is an 86'

 

According to my google search... (granted it was off of wikipedia)

 

86008 is the sequential production number

 

The E before that would indicate "plant of manufacture & transmission type"

 

The F before that indicates model year which for an F is 85

 

This is according to Wikipedia, so take it with a grain of salt.. but its a start, also look on your door panels or under the hood VIN plate should have the model date which will help you a bit better.

You may need to take note of a newer Vin# when I last tried it said my vin wasn't Subaru :)

If they had older gens..

Cyclops

Gasket

Rust Repair

Stubborn

80s refuge (with Devo logo)

 

 

Why no love for them? They're made of subaru that makes a subaru built to stay that way.

I was going to do this on my Legacy back in the day, but the 1st and 2nd gen Legacys use a different thread pitch on the cap.

 

How did you do it with the EA82 cap?

 

i didnt. a quick looksee said they were compatible so i used the one from the lego. my old one was a aftermarket one anyway.
